My PET Scan: Thumbs Up!

It’s pretty cool when your medical oncologist walks into the little UCLA waiting room with your cancer file-folder under his arm and… greets you with a big smile! Praise the Lord, all my blood markers look good and my PET scan is clear (that’s Dr. Ashouri giving us his ‘thumbs up’ :-). Whenever Ken and I go in for my three-month checkup with him, he always shakes his head in amazement – and we tell him it’s because a lot of people are praying, you included. How we thank God for friends who uphold us through their powerful intercessions! Psalm 103 tells us that God “heals all our diseases” – that means if you’ve ever been healed from a cold, or the flu, or a broken ankle, or a migraine, or whatever, it’s God who has done it. If anything is to be healed, God makes it happen; he’s responsible. And we thank the Lord for the way he has worked through Dr. Ashouri! Onward and upward until the next PET scan :-).
