Dear Prayer Warriors
Praise the Lord for His faithfulness & love.
Most of you already know that I was diagnosed with nose cancer 3 weeks ago. To complicate matters, last Sunday (3 Sep 2006), I discovered a lump on the left side of my throat. This was confirmed on Tuesday (5 Sep) during my review meeting with oncologist Dr Wee. The MRI report showed a nodule on the left thyroid. Dr Wee arranged for an immediate FNAB (Fine Needle Aspiration Biopsy) to determine if the nodule was malignant or benign.
The next few days were filled with much anxiety. I was afraid that this new discovery could delay my radiotherapy (RT) which was scheduled to start on 12 Sep. Why? Because if the thyroid nodule is found to be malignant, surgery would have to be done first to remove the nodule before RT on the nose could begin. And to cut the long story short, my anxiety turned to joy when the FNAB result confirmed on Friday (8 Sep) that the thyroid nodule was benign. Surgery to remove the thyroid nodule could wait until the 33 RT sessions are completed in Oct.
Thank you for rallying behind me in prayer as I battle against cancer in the Lord’s strength.
But most of all, I want to give praises to God Almighty :
“You are my God, and I will give You thanks;
You are my God, and I will exalt You.
Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good;
His love endures forever.”
(Psalm 118:28-29)
Shalom,
