Seems like ages ago that I went to my dentist and asked him if he had any idea what that strange little growth was in my throat. Knowing for sure that is was surely nothing serious, but just in case, let's go see an ENT doc just in case. Which of course, although likely nothing serious, should probably have an MRI just for kicks....and then the biopsy....and the PET scan...and, well, here we are....one week down.
The week went by in a blur. Maybe because each day seems to be spent in a sort of a blur. Tired, fuzzy, no pain, just a constant tingling sensation. I am surprised I can lay still for so long. Not wanting to move, but still all the while, feeling everything. Weird.
Its hot today. Cooling went out yesterday in the house. Will get that fixed soon, hopefully tomorrow.
Got to get motivated though. Or not. Rest is nice too.

ReplyDeleteThanks for posting, Kev!
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear about the cooling, or lack thereof!
Praying for you constantly!!
Kev,
ReplyDeleteGreetings from Austin. Today my church was looking into Psalm 37-38. One verse I read was....
"O Lord, do not forsake me; be not far from me, O my God. Come quickly to help me, O Lord my Savior." Psalm 38:21-22
You touched on something in your blog that is powerful. I've pondered it ever since "the phone call". We all are bothers and sisters. We are connected. This climb you are now taking to very high altitudes, carrying this heavy, burdensome pack is back breaking. However, the Lord is with you and you are the stronger for it. You are able and will make the summit. Your friends and family can help carry that burden of the heavy pack while we climb together. It is a rocky and torturous path but your footing is strong. Step by step hope and assurance of the summit abound. As you said, one week down...
Back to Psalm 38 and your blog. We all call out to God and plead for Him to "be not far from me". As many have stated before, our life is oh-so fragile. We all are just one phone call away from climbing our own demanding summit. I am reminded that I control so very little in this life.
"Come quickly to help me, O Lord my Savior...."
Your brother, Shave
Keeping you in my prayers Kevin.
ReplyDelete"Deep is calling on deep,
in the roar of the waters:
your torrents and all your waves
swept over me.
By Day the Lord will send
his loving kindness;
by night I will sing to him,
praise the God of my life."
Peace and Blessings, Al
Kev,
ReplyDeleteYou are an inspiration to me. You are strong. You are touching so many of us through this experience.
Didn't realize this blog existed. Thank you for the updates. We are all here for you.
Your little bro, okay not that little.

Kevin, Never underestimate the power of prayer, and you my friend have alot of people praying for you!!!!!
ReplyDeleteMr Kearns-
ReplyDeletewow wow oh crap wow
I heard from Darrough, Nakamura and my brother Tom, and it still did not seem real until I read your entries.
I can talk about anything, I have be accused of being able to ramble to a rock, but for now all I can say is "Fight the strong fight."
I smile at the old times and look forward to more. There have been other rats who have beat this bastard; follow their lead, keep your eyes on the prize!
We will all be sending the positive vibes and be watching your strength endure!
Cheers!

I'm happy to hear the progress, Kevin. Every day under your belt is progress to being done with this!
ReplyDeleteHere's your God medicine for today:
Jeremiah 29:11
"For I know the plans I have for you," says the Lord. "They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope."
Baby, I know today, that God is really with you.
ReplyDeleteAnd I am comforted. We love you so much.
