Relay for Life: The Emotional and Spiritual Journey



Where to begin to this 2 part saga... (more to come on the physical part tomorrow!)... I have desire to do Relay for Life for a couple of years and God gave me the opportunity to walk in honor of a dear lady that one of my former preschoolers calls "Tutu" (aka grandma).  Sadly even cancer touches our youngest as two of my littles ones from last school year had to watch their grandparent battle the horrid disease.  One lost their battle this past spring and the other is cancer free at this point.  The latter is who I walked with tonight.  Her name is Linda!

Aunty Linda was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer... the doctor's were skeptical... she went through chemo and asked for prayer for God to heal her body.  God did heal her and the doctor's could not find any cancer cells.  On our shirts there were angel wings with the slogan "In God we trust".

There is no cancer in heaven... no pain... no tears... so even if cancer takes our life on this earth... we will be cancer free for all eternity!
