I must admit I almost never am on this forum due to time limitations, once you get started it can be a pleasurable couple of hours every day but I need that time for work...
So I find it wonderful that I browsed over here this afternoon and see this post while waiting on a fire I have going.
Wow is an understatement! Way to go!
Also, I share your battle in prayer if I am allowed to say that here. Misdiagnosed in 2005, my salivary gland cancer grew to 6" before a Dr. in 2012 finally said something is not right. But too late. A couple of months later (Jan. 2013) I awoke after 6 days in IBC to the words that I had 2-3 days to live. When the doctor came he suggested immediate and prolonged massive 7-8 weeks of radiation to give me an extra year which I took. But with the prayers of my family and local church and community and even some wonderful friends on these forums, it's three years now :)
Finally by February of this year I was able to pick up my guitar again and later, even to sing a little. What a wonderful gift this music is in this world! And how wonderful you are at the helm of that gift :)
So thank you and I walk with you in prayer, if I may.
