This past Monday morning I still was not feeling very good, but towards the afternoon I started to feel better and better. I was able to go and watch Meggan's first tennis match, and even played some tether ball with Lena and Sara (I killed them! :) Who knew muscles could get sore from tether ball...)
Mindy and I went on a good walk yesterday, I got into the office and worked some, and we watched Brendan's tennis match also.
It is a bizarre thought that I might be through with the post-chemo cruddiness. Mindy and I have been talking a lot about the feelings and thoughts that accompany this stage of my healing. Through all of this we have obviously heard the stories and experiences of a lot of people who have gone through similar circumstances as mine. It is difficult for us to think and believe that our experience with cancer is coming to an end for good. We have heard of so many who have been in remission and who have had relapses. We are trying to balance being excited about the healing, but continuing to submit ourselves to the will of our loving Heavenly Father. We continue to look forward with faith to being fully healed, but we also continue to have the faith to not be healed, as Elder Bednar taught.
We also continue to also try to be submissive in terms of our schedule and our plans for life. This has been a huge part of what we have been taught through this experience....that what we plan and what we expect in our lives is not as important as our day-to-day recognizing what Heavenly Father would have us learn and do. This is an ongoing learning process, which we are grateful for.
