Biopsy and Panera

Matt's parents came in town on New Years Day to help out with the kids while I had my biopsy on the right side on January 2nd.  We had a great time with them and I was feeling much better.  I was able to help more with the kids, cook more, and just enjoy their company.  After my blood count check, we all went to lunch on Friday afternoon at Panera Bread.  I was getting my water up at the counter and a random lady commented to me that she liked my hair cut.  For some strange reason I replied back thanks and that I had just cut it because I am starting chemo.  Why I decided to tell a random stranger this is beyond me.  She looked at me and said, "I just knew I was supposed to come talk to you."  She proceeded to tell me that she had breast cancer a few years back and is now a survivor.  She happened to go to the same Breast Care Specialist doctors and happened to have just been there the day before.  (The same day I was there getting my biopsy!)  She told me that she would continue to pray for me and was convinced that God had her talk to me.  Wow!  Just wow!  It was another sign from God that he's got this and he's putting people in my path to tell me.  I couldn't wait to go back to the table and tell Matt and his parents.  A few hours after lunch, I received a call from Breast Care Specialist saying the biopsy was benign.  No cancer on the right side!  Yay!!!
My blood counts were super high, by the way.  The severe bone pain from the Neulasta shot was worth it and everything looked good.  There are so many blessings every single day!
