Laying It All Out (I Wrote This When My Grandma 1st Got Sick)

Wow! What a month it has been... to everyone who has no clue what's going on, let me update you since I just caught my breath.

A few weeks ago, my dad recieved a devistating phone call from my sister Olivia. My grandma Phyllis was in the hospital with a cold. Now, what seemed like just a cold turned out to be something that has rocked our world. The doctor's believed she may have cancer... Again, as I write this, I have to take deep breaths. It's not a word that just rolls off your tongue.

Finally, we waited and got the actual results: Pancreatic Cancer- in operable.
Here's the thing: This type is known as the "Silent Killer". By the time you know it's there, its too late.. When I found this out I begged God for time.. that's all I wanted. Time and strength. My faith is not shaken. But it is hard to be told someone you love may not make it for a year. How is that easy?
After the official diagnosis, we were told she would begin chemo and it would prolong her life.. this was a joyous moment.

I write this because I know many are wondering what's going on in my life. Things seemed so easy and perfect for a season, but you can't expect things to stay that way.. God never said this life was easy. I believe in His promise to bless us and carry us along this journey. He has... James 1:2,3

God has a plan that I'm unsure of at the moment... but I trust in Him to get us through. I can't imagine going about this alone.
