Prayers

Well I am not really sure how to write or post this because it is a little uncomfortable for me to do. I was recently diagnosed with precancerous cells in my cervix as well as dysplasia. This means alot of things, mainly that this could progress into something more serious. Its a weird feeling to hear the doctor say that I could have a form of cancer. I'm 23 almost 24. It is just crazy to me. I have known for a little bit and it has now just hit me. I guess things happen for a reason. Heavenly father only gives us challenges that we as individuals are strong enough to handle. I'm grateful to be able to test out my strength and faith in him, but also scared out of my mind. Anyway I go in for my biopsy on the 19th to see exactly what I am dealing with. I would appreciate all your prayers. I know that it my seem weird to ask for, but I really feel that I need as many as I can get right now. I feel lucky to be diagnosed with something that is treatable. I am grateful for Aaron and my family's support. I'll post any new updates, but for now please keep my family and I in your prayers. Thank you!

Laura I will for sure pray for you every chance I get. I'm so sorry and I don't blame you for being scared. The lord does give us difficult things to deal with but like you said as long as we stay close to him we can get through anything. Keep me updated.

Hey. I've been checking your blog and keep waiting for you to post something new, but wasn't very excited to read this. I hope that you are ok. I'm glad that they caught it early though. Let me know if I can do anything for you... Babysit, clean, bring you food, or a smoothie from Bahama Bucks :). You name it!!
I'll be thinking about you.

Love
Amy
