My Story As A Survivor
God had brought me through many struggles which had inspired me to share my story with the world. My goal for my readers, is that they will know, not every trial they go through comes to destory them. Trials come our way often times to make us stronger. Sickness might make the physical body weak, but when one lives in the will of God and has a close relationship with Him, the experiences make that individual spiritually stronger.
That is the person that I have become after battled cancer five times and surviving three different kinds. I see myself as a vessel for God. Through my trials, God has prepared me to carry out His work. The work of sharing the good news that He still heals with the help of doctors, nurses, medication and most of all family and friends.
Although, it is God's will who He heals on this side of the world and those He heals beyond death. We have to look beyond the struggles and see God's purpose in our lives. In 2008 when I had the first recurrence of lymphoma cancer after two other cancers, I thought that was it for me. I purchased a pre-planning insurrance through one of the funeral homes in my area. I was ready, if He was ready to take me home. But, the amazing thing, even though I was mentally prepared, I did not feel the end within my soul. My inner spirit revealed to me that God still has some work for me to do. I did not dream I would have written my story to share with the world. I have survived malt lymphoma three times. I am nine plus years breast and uterine cancer free.
