While We're Waiting® - Hope After Child Loss Bonus 78 | Scanxiety
Hannah's blood transfusion rejuvenated her to such a degree that it was almost possible to forget she was sick ... almost. There was a big reminder hanging over us, and that was her upcoming MRI. Every cancer patient and his or her family understands the term "scanxiety", and there was definitely some of that going on! This would be her first MRI since the day after her surgery, and the results would tell us a lot about how successful the surgery had actually been and whether or not her treatments so far had been effective. In spite of the inevitable scanxiety, I remember feeling fairly confident that everything was going to look good on these scans. I also realize, looking back, that the true gravity of what we were facing had not yet set in.
Thank you for joining me for another bonus episode of the While We're Waiting podcast in this year-long series in which I share our family’s experiences as our teenage daughter Hannah battled glioblastoma brain cancer from February 2008 through February 2009. My desire is to process through the events of those twelve months with the perspective that 16 years has brought … and point people to hope in Jesus along the way.
