Quick update...
A trip this morning to the onc for a simple follow up turned into a pretty deep discussion about my most recent CT scan from my episode last week. Turns out the spots in my lungs are turning "confluent" meaning you cannot tell where one ends and the other begins. This is obviously the source of the consistent cough, and I've felt the spread of the cancer for some time now so it wasn't a big surprise to hear the news. I'm pursuing some different options right now so we'll see how everything pans out. Keep the prayers a comin'....

Brian, I am a friend of Ansley's. My husband spoke at the her service about the "port-a-john." Tonight I was blogging, and somehow - well, God really, lead me to yours.
I never met you, but Ansley updated me on your journey nearly every time we spoke. She was faithful to ask prayer for others suffering alongside her.
Please stay encouraged. I know the reeling effect of "more bad news." I read in Psalms 119 yesterday, verse 67 and 71 respectively states, "Because I was afflicted, I learned your statutes...It was good for me to be afflicted that I might learn your decrees."
Beleive me, I am not trying to trivialize your journey at all. I pray you do not receive it that way. I just honestly believe that when God does allow the affliction part of our responsiveness is to seek to KNOW Him. What an honor and a priviledge to be set apart as a holy one to walk before others as a beacon in the darkness.
Thank you for sharing your heart. It brought a few tears remembering precious times with Ansley. However, I also smiled when I read your vision of her smiling down upon you from Heaven. I am quite sure her smile never leaves her face!
Lifting your journey before the Throne of Grace and Mercy. May God be your Great Sustainer!
