That’s right! No kidding. Here’s the detail on my Dana visit this past Wednesday.

I hit the hay Tuesday evening at a little after 9. I had showered, set my cell phone alarm, laid my clothing out in my bath and was ready for my 4:15 alarm. I got a call from my brother about our friend Donnas death and told my wife . I stayed in bed and did some tearful prayers, I know where Donna is but I will miss her she was a brick in my foundation too.

I slept okay but I would wake up and pray for her and thank God for having had  her in my life.

So , I was awake before my cell alarm went off. I got up quietly so I would not wake my wife and got dressed etc. I headed through the bedroom and my wife was awake so we said our goodbyes:)  I went downstairs it was now around 4:40 I got a sip of water, double checked for my keys, Dana card, coat and glasses. I grabbed the cane and down I went to the garage it was now 4:43 dang!  Time flies!

I got into My car and off I went my first time to Danah Farber by myself! I arrived at the hospital in my garage space at 5:18 a.m. I could not believe how fast and effortless it was to get there. The hospital was not open yet so I had a chance to sit quietly and reflect.

Yes, I missed my wife and or my family members that were normally with me but, I knew that it was time to just do it. My wife would normally come with me which required  her to miss work time that needed to be made up because of the nature of her work plus she remain the sole income of our home.

So, I decided that my wife and family deserved to be freed from this responsibility. The guards there are so nice too. One saw me sitting in my car and waved me into the lobby. So, I got out of my car and began to walk with my cane and the left leg began to stiffen so I took a deep breath and said , I am fine and help me LORD  I looked up and the guard was holding the door for me , I smiled and said thanks my mind is fighting with my body. ( fear) still lingering a bit from the track incident. i just smiled.

Well, I stuck it out and went about the building, blood draw,MRI brain scan and then went across the hospitals to see my doctor. I concentrated my attention on people around me and prayer in order not to be frozen by fear of my leg seizing up. . Every time my leg froze I said c’mon and pushed on just knowing that it is a brain thing not a serious threat.

The doctors head assistant S came into the exam room and started off my visit and she is awesome. Picture a sweet angel, thats her 🙂  I answered all of her questions and discussed related matters. She hugged me and went to get my Dr. A few minutes later Dr. R Came into the room and said hello. He introduced me to a Dr. From China who was visiting and is an expert with GLIO brain cancer . HE wanted to see how I was presenting and look at my case info. I just said I am doing well because of God his medicines, machines and their hands through Jesus. With that my doctor said can you believe it Dan you have been out of treatment for 2 years. He smiled and said unbelievable. I raised my cane towards the ceiling and said GOD. 🙂

Thank You God For The Breath In My Body.

With that I said thank you to the nice Chinese Dr. He went to shake my hand and I said no I am a hugger and gave him a big hug with a God bless You. 🙂

Next,  I dove for Dr R and he was standing there with a big smile on his face I hugged him and said thank you, God Bless You and I said I love you. We left the room and as I walked down the hall I thought to myself what a beautiful God moment. I do not know the custom of the Chinese but I knew the graditude that I felt for these wonderful men. God is love and they work everyday to bring his love to their patients Amen.

My scan was as clear as a bell. It’s a straight out Miracle Praise GOD.!!

i headed to my car and my leg got me there Amen 🙂

The Air i Breath.

God Bless You All,
