Tomorrow I have a full body bone scan and a bone infusion. Thursday I find out the results and what the plan is.Pray that there is a new drug or trial for my cancer. I feel the prayers and know God is listening. My pain has gotten better in the last few days, thank you for the 🙏
After all my scans, blood work, and Dr appointments this week, we found out that my cancer has spread. I’m usually very anxious going into all of that, but this time I had a real calmness. I know God is walking with me. He is my shepherd. #fightingcancer
My brother has always been one of my biggest role models. Thank you to all who have served & those who are currently serving. Happy Veteran’s Day 🇺🇸💙
