A Sign From God - Keep the Faith!

Ominous cloud.

A sign from God.

It was raining heavily recently when we were driving home from Kelsey's appointment at MD Anderson in Houston. The weather was horrible. Emmy was sitting the back seat coloring. We decided it would be fun to have a coloring contest to pass the time. We both kept commenting on how dark the clouds looked. At one point, it even looked liked a funnel  cloud was forming! We were all tired and just wanted to get home so we could rest. It had been a very busy couple of days for Kelsey. She had her routine 6 month check up at MD Anderson. The days for Kelsey were filled with  numerous kinds of tests. A lot of poking and prodding going on in places we won't mention. Not fun!The anticipation of not knowing if the tests would come back positive for colon cancer or any other type of cancer was stressful to say the least. After several days of testing, Kelsey got the exciting news that all the tests had come back negative! Thank God! The clouds miraculously cleared when we were almost home, and Emmy shouted," Look, there is God!" Yes, it sure was.... our prayers were answered on that drive home. I now look back at that moment and realize it was a sign from God. God is good! Kelsey's next follow up MD Anderson isn't until February 2013. Our faith that everything will be okay in the future remains strong. :)
