answered prayer
today, i finally got the result of my spinal tap.
after analyzing and comparing the blast cells on my latest spinal tap from the blast cells of my original bone marrow biopsy, the pathologist concluded that they look very different from the leukemic blast cells in the original biopsy and that the blast cells were normal immature cells.
my “early cell count” was only 4% and she said that anything below 5% is considered normal. so technically i’m in remission! yahooo!!!!
i’ll be out of the hospital next week for my much needed rest and then i’ll go back to consolidation therapy after 1 month. the oncologist said that i can take the therapy as an out-patient and it will be for 2 months. if all goes well then we will proceed with the bone marrow transplant by mid-May.
i’m much overwhelmed by God’s great love for me. words are inadequate to describe the joy within me. thank you to my family for the unconditional love, my relatives, my doctors, nurses, friends, online friends and strangers who prayed for me and journeyed with me. thank you so much. He answered our prayers.
to my Lord and Savior, my Redeemer and Healer, Jesus Christ, You are awesome! i worship You for who You are. thank you for Your faithfulness, thank you for Your Great love. I am in awe of You!
the journey from brokenman to betterman continues…….
standing here in Your presence, thinking of the good things You have done. waiting here patiently, just to hear the still small voice again
Holy, Righteous, Faithful ’till the end. Savior, Healer, Redeemer and Friend
I will worship You for who You are. I will worship You for who You are. I will worship You for who You are Jesus
My soul’s secure, Your promises’ sure. Your love endures always
I will worship You for who You are. I will worship You for who You are. I will worship You for who You are Jesus
for who you are/hillsong australia

The very first time I chanced on you,
I saw you sad yet, you were flying w/
‘broken wings’. Through you, we witnessed
enormous strength & outstanding patience.
Your faith empowered and healed you through
God’s loving arms. He truly heals the brokenhearted
& binds up their wounds. Soar high Betterman,
you are no longer broken in my eyes.
Smile for me, wink!
