doctors and decisions

matthew and i got to louisville pretty early in the morning.  we got up about ten am. took showers and we headed to downtown louisville with doug and susan to meet with  the oncologocal surgeon, dr. mcmasters.  he was fairly abrupt and to the point and yet none of seemed to feel as though we understood our options.  i give him credit for at least realizing that we were not getting the information we needed to help.  he was able to get dr. donald miller from oncology to speak with us.  he was a very calming and personable presence.  i told matthew that i feel god does hear our prayers.  dr. miller was exactly who we needed at that time in that place.   i think he helped us all feel better and i think we were able to understand what needed to be considered.   it is not easy at all to hear someone say that this person you love so deeply has cancer.  i love my family so very much. i have kept this with me since we added susan to the prayer list at church     do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to god. and the peace of god, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in christ jesus.   phil. four  verse six and seven       okay i know this post is wierd without capitals, numbers, and paragraphs   but   with this smart phone every time i tried it would kick me out of blogger.
