You won't believe how my app is encouraging me!

I've been asking for others to pray that my strength, energy, endurance and stamina come back full force. Well, my app sent me an update today that says I am +45% more active this week versus last week. So out of curiousity I looked down at last week's update and it said I was +105% more active last week than the week before. Well praise God for that. Prayers are being answered and there is real proof "because my app says so"! LOL! Honestly, though, I feel that these things are coming back. I'm not fully back, and have to pace myself, but I'm so grateful that God created our bodies to recover and heal like they do.

Along with the above prayer, I just have to ask you to add that when I have scans again on 11/01, they will show the radiation and immunotherapy combination has done its job perfectly and cancer is not active and shrunk or gone. Oh how this would revive my soul and encourage me. I'm ready for a break from this every other week treatment I've been doing since June 4, 2018 (16 months).

I believe that God can heal me of this cancer once and for all. This November 9th marks 9 years since my first surgery to remove some growing episiotomy scar tissue that turned out to be a rare rare cancer. I remember then my gyn told me this was going to be a long hard road. Little did we know what that would really look like, yet praise God, here I am alive and still in the fight. We didn't know if we'd make it to this year, let alone be hopeful for a good scan in a couple weeks.

Today in my bible study Lysa TerKeurst, Christian author said, "The enemy is vicious, but he is not victorious!" Praise God for that. I'm counting on it. I hope you will too.
