Sorry for the delay...

It's been crazy around here these past 10 days. Having phone and internet issues only complicated my being able to blog. We did go to IU Med Center as previously mentioned. The doctor there confirmed my last MRI was inconclusive. His recommendation included a Pet Scan to see if we could get a clearer picture. While treatment would only vary slightly depending on what they see, they would like clarity. At first, insurance would not approve the procedure, so we had to spend a couple of days convincing them otherwise. I had the scan on Friday (10/22/10), so we should get the report this week. My hand/arm strength has improved so much since being back on steroids. My appetite has been on the rise, too. With losing nearly 20lbs. over the last few weeks and having very, little appetite, that has been a good thing.

Even more than the "medical" stuff I could tell you, I want to share the non-medical. Earlier this month, I hit what I determined to be my lowest point. I cried so many tears. God reminded me, though, that tears are a language He understands, so I knew that was okay. The thing about hitting bottom is that the only place to go is up, and that's exactly what happened. God enveloped me like no other time in these past seven months. He has reaffirmed to me how He is leading me through this journey.
