Mandy

About 2 weeks ago we found out one of my friends, Mandy, might have some sort of cancer. After several appointments and 2 weeks of waiting, the good news is in. She has Hodgkins Lymphoma. That is a type of cancer, but it is the most treatable type of cancer. She should be fully recovered in 4-6 months. We are all thankful that our prayers have been answered.

I was talking to Mandy this morning about all the "BAD" things that happen or will happen to each of us. I believe our attitude towards these trials determines whether we feel like these trials are devastating (or not). I am grateful for a perspective on life that does not just include the time between birth and death.
