MRI of July 31, 2012

All clear!  There is been no re-growth of the original tumor from September 2008 and the size of the Acoustic Neuroma located on my brain stem (which is still there) remains unchanged in size.....meaning it will be left alone and no surgery is scheduled.  It is exciting to be a child of God and to be able to partake of His goodness, His mercy and His grace in my life.  As Christians, we are so blessed.  Isn't it wonderful to be able to face the challenges of life with God on our side?  One thing that I have learned through all of this......faith moves mountains and our prayers bring the promises of God's Word into reality for us here on Earth.  Heaven is moved when we pray!

MRI Results - Year Over Year

 

I know that many of you are probably wondering what has happened to me since surgery.  I can tell you that I have seen the Glory of God!  I have felt His presence in my life in a real and personal way.  I have been sheltered in the light of His Glory.  My life has been profoundly changed by the events of the last few years and, if I had to do it all over again, I would not change a thing.  In May of 2009, Jesus came to me in a vision and held my head in His hands assuring me that I would be made whole.  Then, by His grace, my faith grew in Him such as I had never known before.  It grew as I stepped out of my comfort zone and trusted Jesus implicitly with a "child-like" faith.  I knew and trusted obediently that however He moved in my circumstances would be by His perfect design and will.  

"And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him."  (Hebrews 11:6)

Since my initial MRI of April 2009, I have had two more MRI's.  One was May 28th, 2010 and the next one on July 31, 2011.  The annual MRI's serve two purposes.  Firstly, they monitor the meningioma that was successfully removed September 2009.  These can slowly begin to grow back.  JESUS HELD MY HEAD IN THE PALM OF HIS HAND AND SAID, "I HAVE MADE YOU WHOLE".  RADIATION WAS NEVER NEEDED IN MY CASE BECAUSE JESUS TOUCHED ME.  I RECIEVED A HEAVENLY RADIATION UPON MY LIFE AND IT HAS SUPERNATURALLY ARRESTED ALL FORMS OF REGROWTH WITHIN MY BODY!!!  The second reason I am monitored annually through MRI's is to follow the second brain tumor, Acoustic Neuroma, on my brain stem.  Here also, the same holds true.  WHEN JESUS TOUCHES OUR LIVES, HE DOES A COMPLETE WORK IN US.  HE DOES THIS PHYSICALLY, EMOTIONALLY, AND SPIRITUALLY as we give our lives over to Him in complete trust and faithfulness.  As expected, the brain tumor has not grown one iota since the first MRI.  Not even a little bit.  It has remained unchanged.  PRAISE GOD FOR HIS FAITHFULNESS!  HE NEVER LEFT ME NOR DID HE EVER FORSAKE ME!

"I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me.  The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me."  (Galatians 2:20)
