Good News!

I finally received some good news from my doctor this past week. :) The breast surgeon that I went to see is almost certain that the lump is a cyst and is shrinking! Praise God! From my first ultrasound to the second one in his office just over a week later, the cyst shrank almost to half the original size! With that evidence, he decided that it would not be necessary to perform a biopsy (YAY!) . Instead, we will just monitor it to make sure that it's really going away. I'm scheduled to get another ultrasound on May 12th and then he will compare the images and see what we need to do from there. As for now, it's super good news. Thank you, Abba!

Yesterday was the annual women's tea at church. It was a blast decorating a table with Amy. Ours was the tackiest table around. Many of the others were super fancy and then there was ours. Bright blue, yellow and orange complete with lilies, hibiscus flowers and colorful leis! We got so many compliments on our table- it was a huge hit. We even had ladies say "someone told me to come over here and look at the table with the leis". The day was fantastic! I was finally able to introduce two good friends together- Miss Sauni (who lives in my neighborhood) and Eileen (my adopted mom). Sauni and Eileen remind me so much of one another its uncanny to me. Then when they started talking we found out that they both had lived in the same area of Pennsylvania around the same time. They hit it off great- it was like two old friends meeting up- fantastic!

Next Saturday I'm going on the road with Mindy and Amy- we're off to Woodstock First Baptist to see Beth Moore in the simulcast for her new book, So Long Insecurity. I'm so excited about the trip- it's going to be great. I finished the book a little over a week ago and it was fantastic! It's so funny how God has been working on me through that book. I've read things in there that I'm finding everywhere around me, just echoing what He's taught me. Reminding me of what I'm becoming and where He's leading me. So, there's no telling what He's going to throw at me next weekend. At least I'll have my best friends to help me through this part of the journey.
