Fear, Worry and Being Strong

On the way home from an appointment today, he tells me he will find out how much time he has to live in a couple weeks!!!  I thought what on earth. He went to the dentist today... Guess he went to the docs too.  There is a lump.  There is a lump in his neck.  It is interfering with turning his head, his jaw and he goes back in a couple weeks to find out what it might be. 

I watched the footage of Cmdr Chris Hadfield returning to Earth in the Soyuz space ship and thought that is was a scary endeavour to come hurtling towards earth like a dead weight.  I am not sure what scares me more, that or thinking about what could be wrong.

How can something so small grow to be something so very scary.   What could be causing it?  Why is it located below and behind his ear?  Why does two weeks seem like an eternity all of a sudden?  Praying that it isn't anything.  Praying that it is something simple.  

Philippians 4:6-7 Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

How can someone who has caused me such heartache merit my concern?  I do love the man that I married. I just do not like his behaviours.  Thankful that he has shared this with me. Pray that he is able to avoid worrying about it.

Prayers are always appreciated.
God bless.
