Update on Mom

My mother saw the cardiologist who works alongside Dr. Carol-Ann Benn and because of the condition of her heart, he said she cannot ever have chemotherapy. Her heart wouldn't cope with the treatment and she would probably die. What an answer to prayer, unbeknown to my mom, my dad had been praying that she wouldn't have to go through with chemo. So God has used the "tatty" condition of her heart to spare her the chemotherapy and radiation (she cannot have that either).

The team of doctors still need to discuss the procedures for surgery and removal of the cancer, also they need to look at the MRI and see whether it has spread. All this will be seen to in the next week and we'll keep you updated as best we can. We are praying that the cancer won't have spread and that it can easily be removed. Our desire is that Nanny would be with us for many more years, however, we know that she won't be here a minute longer than what our Father in heaven has already ordained. Ultimately, His will be done for His glory. We trust the almighty God who is all loving and all knowing. He loves my mom and she knows Him. What grace and what joy!
