Like clockwork

Well, because my cycle is like clockwork, I am now able to move on with the next step in our journey. I am scheduled to have an MRI this Thursday @ 12:30pm. I will not know the results that day & it will be another waiting game until we find out the results from that test. I'm scheduled to meet with the surgeon again the following Tuesday to go over the results from the MRI and make some decisions regarding surgery. I know some (mom) are anxious to get on a plane and be here for me but you'll have to hold your pants on a little longer yet! I plan to spend the time waiting by backpacking with Joel and the girls. Thanks to everyone for your prayers, thoughts and words of encouragement. It has been very uplifting and must really be working. I feel very at peace with what I'm facing other than the occasional thought of "holy crap....I have cancer!" and luckily so far those thoughts are fleeting and pass by quickly. Stacey
