For nothing is impossible with God.
Luke 1:37
Last day of radiation is tomorrow!!!! Zac and I will be heading over in the morning and returning the same day. We've already packed up and moved out of Hope Lodge.
(http://www.cancer.org/docroot/subsite/hopelodge/IA_IowaCity/rag_index.asp), which was such a blessing the past several weeks. Although we were clearly the youngest people staying there, we still made a few friends along the way. There was an older man, with tounge cancer, who liked to tease me whenever he was feeling good. And I spent several hours putting together puzzles with a dear woman from Florida, whose husband recently started treatment.
We had a relaxing weekend again. Last night the two of us went to an Iowa Cubs game (thank you Thompson family!) A funny story from the game...I think I might have scared the high school girl sitting behind me. My "bald spots" aren't normally noticably, except I've found when the wind blows or I tip my head down. There was a bit of a breeze last night so I'm not sure what all she saw!! I'm hoping it grows back by November or it could be a cold winter!!
Thank you all so much for the prayers and support over the past several weeks (and 2+ years). Although we're done with the radiation tomorrow, I'll try my best to update the blog a couple times a week, as I'm still dealing with several side effects yet from treatment and medications. And we still need prayer that this tumor will be gone one day! According to every doctor we've met, this tumor is considered incurable and treatment was to stop it from growing for awhile and possibly shrink it some. But we have and believe in a big God, who is bigger than this tumor. All things are possible with the God who could create the universe, who created you and me.

Dear Stacie, I am SO GLAD that you have arrived at the end of this part of the journey. You have been such an inspiration to watch you (on your blog) go through this. We will continue to pray for healing. Our God is an AWESOME God! Love you, Karen
We are so happy it's over! But just because your treatment is over doesn't mean our prayers will stop. We will continue to lift you up! You have done amazingly well Stac! We love you!
Michael and Danielle
Yeah! Your radiation is over and now you can rest and wait on the Lord for His healing power. Thank-you SO much for opening yourself up on this blog. In doing so, you have touched SO many with your words and your strength and most of all your FAITH! Love you, Mary Jo
