Thank you

I sent an e-mail to people this AM just because I know not everyone reads my blog and I really need the support of my friends and family during these tests. Thanks to everyone who e-mailed me reassurance of their thoughts and prayers this morning as Keith goes for his CT scan. This is one year out, can you believe it? This journey started in Feb. 2004 with a lump and just now will we be able to say that cancer has been irradicated for one year.

Edited with new note and information: Keith just called me and they haven't taken him back yet. I forgot to mention in this post that his appointment is at 10:30 and we will be waiting to see when the appointment will be to get the results of the scan. This is his routine, every 6 month, appointment. Keith also corrected me on the phone that I should have started counting the years following his chemo which would make this two years. He then went on to radiation and whatnot though and wasn't officially given "the word" that he was in Remission until late last summer. You know what? Years, time, none of that matters. All that matters is that he is healthy and that God is good.

So, I'm just going to add some song lyrics here from Sanctus Real that I think are just awesome:

I'm Not Alright - Sanctus Real
If weakness is a wound
That no-one wants to speak of
Then cool is just how far we have to fall
And I am not amused; I only wanna be loved
But I feel safe behind the firewall
Can I loose my need to impress?
If you want the truth- I need to confess *

CHORUS
I'm not alright, I'm broken side, broken inside;
And all I've come through, it leads me to You
It leads me to You

Burn away the pride
Bring me to my weakness
Till everything to hide behind is gone
When I'm open wide
With nothing left to cling to
Only You are there to lead me on
Cause honestly, I'm not that strong

And now I'm moved, and now I'm moved, and now I'm moved (closer to you)
And now I'm moved, and now I'm moved, and now I'm moved (closer to you)
And now I'm moved, and now I'm moved, and now I'm moved (closer to you)
And now I'm moved, and now I'm moved, and now I'm moved

I'm not alright, I'm broken inside, broken inside
Ohhhhhhhh broken inside, broken inside;
And all I've come through, it leads me to You
It leads me to You

I'm not alright, I'm not alright, I'm not alright
That's why I need you
