It's been a long two weeks before we could drive to Indy to join Mark for the appointment with the cancer doctor.
During the wait, it's virtually impossible to imagine or think about the best-case scenarios. That leads to sleepless nights and working hours with moments of daydreams.
Fortunately, we didn't have a long wait in the doctor's office.
The doctor asked our son a couple questions, then shared what they found in the dozens of tests.
Bottom line, he doesn't have cancer.
We give thanks to God for such a diagnosis.
There are still things wrong and reasons he isn't feeling in the best of shape. For that, another doctor will be consulted.
After the appointment, we had a fairly somber celebration dinner.
Many, many families don't get the positive news we did. Like you, we have friends facing long and grueling battles with a deadly killer.
We pray for them as we continue to pray for Mark. Prayers for the medical team still looking for the cause of the problem and prayers of thanks he can disable life's pause button.
We're glad to see that for us this time, life does go on.
David
