MRI Results - Great News

Hello Friends... Today was our review of the MRI with Caleb's Oncologist. We are thrilled to say that we got wonderful news. The news was that we have gone a year since the previous scan and have no change in the size of the mass or other findings in the brain. This news is huge because each passing scan where there is no change adds stability to the situation. We left the office with a skip in our step and joyful hearts.

We are so grateful to each of you who called/texted/prayed for us today. Your prayers and words of encouragement are such a blessing to us. God has graciously blessed us to surround us with folks that care about our family.

I was reminded today from a few of the writings in "Jesus Calling" that God is near to us - very near. He uses all sorts of mechanisms to show us this and one of the ways we experienced it today was through you. Thank you for being a voice of encouragement and love to us.

The passage that stood out to me today was Isaiah 26:3 - You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in you. Today as we went into meeting we had no idea what the outcome would be - but we can say that our hearts were peaceful - though not perfectly - and we knew that regardless of the discovery that we were placing our trust continually in Him.

Tonight we celebrate this provision and this great blessing of a good report on our lovely son.  Here is photo that we took as we went to the park this afternoon to enjoy the fresh air and Spring.

Blessings,

Austin & Nicole
