Waiting
It's been 11 days since we learned stomach issues might not be so simple; 7 days since the word oncologist was used; 5 days since not so simple turned into serious. And the waiting has not been easy, my friends. But as He's done in the past, God has been so good to place scripture, songs, friends directly in my path to encourage me. I have been overwhelmed by the number of phone calls, emails, facebook messages, skype sessions, etc. and feel very loved and prayed for.
And I'm not gonna lie, the drama in the last 5 minutes of AI Thursday night and watching Daniel-son (a.k.a. Ralph Macchio) and Hines Ward dancing in sparkles helped divert my attention for a few moments as well.

The original plan for today was to get up, rush ourselves out the door to get Camden to school, then Rory and I drive 45 minutes to a dentist's appointment, spend several hours waiting for Rory's teeth to be cleaned, drive 45 minutes back home in time to meet Brian, drop Rory off at Gram and Gramp's house, then drive 45 minutes in a different directions to the doctor. I decided that I wanted normal, not rushed. So Rory is watching Dora while I used the treadmill (and now blog). She's going to hop into a bubble bath while I clean bathrooms (I've become a bit obsessed with coming home to a clean house tonight). We'll play the Dora Matching game, eat lunch, and then the not-so-normal part of my day will start.
