One year ago today, our family heard a word that changed our lives forever - CANCER.
On June 6, 2011 Jethenro was diagnosed with Leukemia. Today, we
praise God for the gift of another year of life for our son and brother. It has been the hardest year of our lives with many tears shed and many days spent in uncertainty. But through it all, our family has learned a much deeper meaning to the words
faith and
trust.

"We will celebrate today. Because today marks another year of life God has blessed us with Jethenro."
May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope. Romans 15:13

ReplyDeleteSo happy that today is a day of celebration.
A day for rejoicing indeed! :) The outlook today is much brighter than it was a year ago when Nitha called me... And God is still there for us-- unchanging. Praise the Lord for that!
