Jake and his mom
Five years ago, Wendell and I sat in a tragic room with this beautiful young woman and her husband. We were joined by a sad doctor, a silent nurse, a rare and aggressive cancer, and a positive pregnancy test. Afterward, they ushered us out a back door into the parking lot, as if the grief we were about to endure was simply too much for the public to see.
I don’t know what became of the sad doctor or the silent nurse. But the beautiful young woman became our strong and confident Serenity Beth, who has recently taken New York City by storm. The pregnancy test became four-year-old-Jake, who dazzles us with his smile and read his own name on his Easter egg this year.
And the rare and aggressive cancer? As of today, it has officially been ushered out the back door, kicked down the steps and banned from appearing again. Serenity has been pronounced cancer-free.
I wish there were words for this day.
Hurray for back doors!
Hallelujah!
Wow. I had no idea this happened! Praise Jesus!
Praise God from all blessings flow,
Praise Him all creatures here below,
Praise Him above, ye heavenly hosts,
PRAISE FATHER! SON! and HOLY GHOST!!
AMEN!! and AMEN!!
Amen indeed!
You girls are making me cry all over again. Thanks for celebrating with us. Andrea, perfect song!
Yes! Cancer free and FULL of LIFE!! Praise God!!
No words just a joyful heart exhibiting its feelings through tears!
So thankful for her healing! God gives us the strength and grace we need. And that little boy, Jake, was/is a sign of life. Love you all!
