Memphis, Prom and More

So obviously, we went to Memphis and even though the results weren't awful it still kind of put me down. Anyways, they say the tumor is stable, so I'd be so happy if y'all kept praying. Cause I need more now than ever. One measurement grew a bit, but there's a possibility it wasn't measured right. So right now I'm just praying like crazy that it stays stable.

I always ask in my prayers that if my wishes and wants we're not in accord with is, that he would help me to be at peace with it. But here's the thing, it sounds easy until something actually happens to you, then everything changes. So I'm praying that it REMAINS stable for.. Well.. A long time! Feel free to join me in that endeavor!

Anyways, Disneyland on top of Memphis and prom with Diane's birthday has been very tiring, so I've been resting all week. The smallest things can really tire me out so easily, it's aggravating cause I'm such a busy-doer type of person, but oh we'll! I can do hard things;)

Disneyland!

     Last week we went to Disneyland! It was nice to kind of take a breather from all life has to throw at us. It was so fun, and only gets better every time we go! I messed up my Sciatic nerve really bad, so I spent the trip in a wheelchair. But that didn't put a damper on the trip, in fact it made it better! We got through the lines a lot faster. Although I would have liked to have been up and walking around, it was better that I wasn't, cause even though I was in a wheelchair, I was completely worn out by the end of each day. I'm still in bed recovering! But it was worth it.

     The best part of the trip was that I got dizzy. I know that sounds bad, but I was dizzy from the rides instead of my cancer!!!!! This shouldn't be a good thing, but for me it was pretty exciting, that the feeling I had was a healthy one, as apposed to a cancerous one.

 Morning before Disneyland!
 Best friends!
 Winnie The Pooh Honey Pots are our favorite treats!
 Always documenting Diane and I's journey, (without her knowing!;))
 Lovin' Disneyland!
 I love Mickey! He was so nice! Even gave me a kiss!
 Radiator Springs with a full moon!
 Panoramic of California Adventures at night!
 All of us in front of the castle, plus a friendly cast member!
 Matterhorn!

 Tower of Terror!
 Needless to say, I was pampered on the trip!
 I love the Disney Castle!
 Firework show!

     Disneyland was amazing. Now I'm leaving for Memphis tomorrow. I'm really praying and hoping for another good MRI, feel free to join me doing that! I'll need as many prayers as I can get. When people inquire what it is that they can do to help, I tell them pray. Because that's honestly the only thing I can think of for them to do, and that will help me the most. I'm so glad I have so many people in my life there for me. I have realized there are a few people that aren't really there, they're all talk and no show. So I am truly grateful to all of you that are. Thanks! PRAY PRAY PRAY.

Yours truly,

Rach
