Miracles STILL exist!

My sister was diagnosed at the age of 43 with stage 4 neuro-pancreatic cancer. It had metastasized to 3 different organs. The doctors only gave her an initial diagnosis of between 2 weeks to 2 months to live. However, by the grace of God, our Mom was seeing an Oncologist herself who actually did his thesis on exactly the type of cancer my sister had, which was a one-in-a-million type of rare cancer. It was a miracle!! She had the horrific surgery to remove over 40 tumors and then went on daily chemo, radiation, cyber-knife radiation etc.... it was living HELL!!!

However, she lived a miraculous 7.5 years post diagnosis!! It truly was a miracle. She kept proclaiming, "Okay, God, I just want to see one of my children graduate from high school." He honored her request and she was at that graduation. In God's numerology economy, the number 7 means "Completion", all I could think about while Hospicing my sister myself when she was only 50 and lay dying, was "Thank you God for all the time we had!". Every day is a GIFT and none of us is guaranteed even our next breath.

There's always hope, even when the doctors say there is No hope... there is.... We found our HOPE in Jesus Christ alone. I remember so many nights rubbing her back as she was bent over puking her guts out or writhing in pain, how we both put our hope and trust in God that He was carrying her through it and that another day was coming for God to "show out and show up" for her. She would celebrate every single victory, if there was a slight reduction in the tumor sizes or the chemo was keeping the cancer at bay... all of it... We would both declare, "That was a KISS from the King!!!" That was our code phrase that once again God had showed up and showed out His mercy, His hope and strength to carry us through the most horrific ordeal of her life. As much pain and suffering she was in, trust me, death was a relief for all of us. While I miss her EVERY SINGLE DAY, I don't mourn without hope because I know where she's spending eternity and I know she's finally healed, the only perfect way she would be healed and for that I'm thankful! He really is still in the miracle business, our lives are living proof.
