I believe in God with alll of my Heart and Soul.
And I believed in SO much more as a Child, like we ALL did. Those were happier times.
I still believe in the Pittsburgh Steelers, from time to time

"You Can't MAKE this stuff up."
They cast their silver into the streets, and their gold is like an unclean thing. Their silver and gold are not able to deliver them in the day of the wrath of the Lord. They cannot satisfy their hunger or fill their stomachs with it. For it was the stumbling block of their iniquity.
Ezekiel 7:19
Many's the time I've been mistaken, And many times confused;Yes, and I've often felt forsaken, And certainly misused .... ~ Paul Simon, "American Tune"

Thank you for posting this, HW.
"Faith without works is dead." What that means to me is that if I truly believe something, I act accordingly. If I believe God has work for me, I search diligently for it until I find it. If I believe God is going to provide a place of safety for me and my family, I ask him what I should be doing do bring it to pass, and then get busy with whatever he shows me.
Ultimately, I believe God means us GOOD. As long as we are submitted to him, and staying in daily communication with him, all things work together for our good.
IF you are willing & obedient , you shall eat the good of the land: But if you refuse & rebel, You shall be devoured with the sword: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it. Isaiah 1:19, 20
I do not trust doctors, if I had taken all the drugs they have proscribed for me I would either be dead or all messed up. Every time they try to give me a drug I check it out on the net and 99.9% of the time the drugs side effects are worse than the problem they are trying to fix.
Faith can do a lot, you just have to believe, trust in yourself and trust in God.
I have come so close dieing so many times it is unreal, in each situation there was suddenly a very loud voice that told me exactly what I had to do or I would die. I always though it was my guardian angle watching out for me.
Some people are only alive because there are laws against killing them.

"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free." - ~~President Ronald Reagan
Spreading...i.e. metastasis is the major factor in cancer that kills.
If tumors never spread then the vast majority could be removed
and the patient would survive. The problem in most cancers is that
by the time the patient is symptomatic in some form the tumor
has usually had time for cancerous cells to metastasize. At that point
removing the tumor merely delays the end result unless therapy of
some sort can kill the dispersed cancerous cells. That is the rationale
behind Chemotherapy.....the effort to find a chemical that will kill the
cancer cells without killing the host. A very very very difficult proposition
when one remembers that the cancer cells are variations of the hosts cells.
To be honest considering how complex cancer is as a disease process it's
amazing that as many people survive as long as they do now.
As for "never having another mammogram"....It's your body, it's your
funeral. Thermography can detect cancer.....once the tumor reaches
a centimeter or two in size, US can see some cancers....not all and MRI
is a very effective screening tool. In fact it's probably the best of them
all....if you don't mind paying for the procedure out of pocket. MRI is
not fast, it's not cheap and it's not widely available compared to other
modalities especially mammography. And digital mammography can and
will find tumors when they are smaller and easier to treat than either
US or Thermography can. That is why it is the benchmark screening
method. It's the most cost effective easiest quickest means of screening
that we have.....and the issue of radiation dose from the procedure is a
valid concern until something better comes along or until MRI can be
made technologically as quick, inexpensive and widely available as mammograms
are.Mammography will continue to be the benchmark for breast CA screening and diagnosis.
Pleasing your enemies does not turn them into friends.

I called the manufacurer of an MRI machine that is/was trying to get FDA approval for a device that you would put one breast and then the other into lying face down on a table. No crushing, no x-rays. Once he had approval it would be cost effective with mammograghy because women would insist on it and make the older machines virtually worthless overnight. He was being held up with assinine re-do's on the paperwork. He thought in an effort to make his product go away because of the investment the industry had in mammography machines. What woman would want to squish her breasts to x-ray when they could have it done painlessly with no radiation? Popular insistance would make it more commonplace and then more cost effective in no time.
That scares all those mammography machine owners.
