curve balls of life

Life is a never ending adventure. It's full of unexpected ups and downs and twists and turns. One of my first posts ever written talked about the roller coaster of life. I shared my experience of being diagnosed with breast cancer at twenty-six and how it was a crazy emotional roller coaster.

Well like I said... life is a never ending adventure. A month ago I went for a routine breast MRI. While I was there I mentioned to the technician a knot I had found on my right breast by my right rib. They decided to do an ultrasound as a precaution. I sat in the room waiting for the Radiologist. It felt like deja-vu.

In my mind I immediately went back eight years ago. All I kept thinking was... here we go again. The next day the doctor called and said "yes, you do have breast cancer."

This is one of those "curve balls of life." Who expects to have cancer once, much less twice? So many things have been racing through my mind and my emotions have been up and down, but my faith has remained the same.

Even though I don't understand, I trust God. His ways are higher than my ways. I know He has a specific plan and purpose for each one of us. We're all created in His image to bring glory to Him with our lives.

Use me God!
