Well, I am sitting here at LDS Hospital in the family surgery waiting room. My mom is her for a second surgery on her kidney. This second surgery isn't as bad as the first they got her right in this morning and they are great to keep you updated on the progress of the surgery and when they are complete. Then when the surgery is over the Doctor comes in and talks with the family then they let you see the pt they have been so good to us here. My mom has been blessed with an amazing Doctor the Lord has blessed us beyond measure we are so grateful for this.
My mom went and saw a specialist this week for her Thyroid Cancer and he was also absolutely amazing and very optimistic. This gave us great comfort. He will perform the surgery on August 4th so that she can go home for a few weeks and recover from the Kidney Surgery. He explained the procedure very throughly to us and eased our fears. They will make a small incision in her neck and remove the left half of her Thyroid and Pathology will check it to see if the cancer is Benign or Malignant and we are hoping for Benign so that only the left side will be removed.
This past week I have stepped back and have been amazed at the tender mercies of the Lord and how my testimony and my faith has been strengthened through going through this. My mom while in the hospital this past week recieved a beautiful, touching, and faithful blessing in her behalf. There was this sweet and kind service missionary and his angel wife that came by my moms room and gave her an encouraging message and asked if she would like a priesthood blessing.
I was truly humbled by this kind mans faith and the power of the priesthood through his obedience and faith as a missionary of god. What was remarkable was knowing thagt the priesthood is true and the Lord will inspire and bless those whose faith is true and strong. This man did not know anything at all about my mom or her condition or the things she was going through but when he gave her the blessing he said absolutely everything she needed to hear and expressed love and concern for the things that she was going through and facing at this time. He was truly a messenger from the Lord speaking for him and blessing and comforting my angel mother in her time of need. He blessed her with comfort and with faith in the Lord and it was a small miracle for my mom yet everything she needed to know that she was loved unconditionally and there was hope through our faith in the gospel and the atonement of our savior.
I am thankful for those dear missionaries and for their love and faith this was a beautiful thing to experience.
I am thankful for the love and faith of my mom she is truly amazing. She has everlasting faith and courage. I am thankful to have her and thank my father in heaven for sending me an angel mother.
