Breath

Have you ever had the wind knocked out of you? Do you remember the feeling of disorientation & then panic as you gasped to take in any little amount of oxygen? You struggle to take that first breath. Finally, it comes & with it tears, because it was so terrifying.

Last night, the phone rang...

My college friend found a lump on her breast. (disorientation) She has breast cancer. (panic) Tests show seven lumps, not one. (gasp) She will be going in for a mastectomy. (struggling to catch a breath) They will be testing her lymph nodes to make sure it has not spread. (tears).

H, we LOVE you! We are praying. Romans 8:26

Oh Chris!... I feel your pain. (See my blog or chat with me at church.) I'll be praying for you and your friend too.
