Cancer Walk

Here we are at the Proton Beam Cancer Institute in Jacksonville, FL. My hubby is half way through his treatment to evict the invader called Prostate Cancer. He was 55 at his diagnosis. He is 56 now and we are walking hand in hand through this process. So far we are VERY pleased with this Institute. The staff is very professional and yet very friendly. Everything seems to organized and the Staff seems to work well as a team. It is amazing how FRIENDLY the 'patients' are each other. It doesnt matter what kind of cancer they are in for, everyone here talks with each other. Some real friendships are made here. We live about five hours drive from this facility so we stay in the area during the week, and head home each weekend. We are putting lots of miles on our trusty Sebring Convertible. The cancer treatment is totally painless and yet we have heard glowing reports from graduates who come back for the six month check-up....so we walk in encouragement and trust his cancer will be GONE as a result of this treatment.

We did learn from the Doc last week (after our asking questions) that he will be susceptible to other cancers. So hubby will have to keep a watch on his colon especially. First it is near the prostate. Second, his mother died of colon cancer. So we will have to keep a close watch.

We have been on the Hallelujah Acre Diet now for a year. We trust that the change in our eating, has not only kept the cancer from growing while we were waiting to get approved for this treatment, but that it will keep other cancers from moving in. We are thankful for a certain restaurant that is located in this area that helps us to stay on our diet even while staying in someone else's home: We go to Sweet Tomatoes Restaurant every day for a HUGE tossed salad. We are grateful to the many friends who have passed coupons on to us to give us a discount each day.

I am so grateful to be alive today! I am so grateful that I have my husband beside me today!
But whatever the rest of this day holds, or tomorrow....our lives are willingly placed in the hands of our precious Lord Jesus to whom we trust and adore. We pray that our lives, with or without cancer, will honor and glorify HIS name.

Have a GREAT day.
