ceased to ever halt at any point during this past year -I was forever reminded that I was neveralone.Furthermore, I am thankful that I have continually been uplifted in prayer -and indeed, I havefelt those prayers from all angles. I only ask that they continue as I am currently going throughthe biggest transition I have yet faced -the post Bone Marrow Transplant phase.I would like to share with you an experience that demonstrates God's awesome power, as itis our duty to share these events when we bear direct witness to them.On the day before I was supposed to start the initial medications in preparation for thetransplant, I received news from my doctor that a CT scan reading taken that morning showedan image which appeared to be an unidentifiable mass -something that wasn't there on aprevious scan.Although it could be a number of things, they obviously couldn't rule out it being cancerwithout doing a biopsy. My doctor was gracious but did indicate that the transplant would be onhold further until determination. Essentially, a new mass would indicate that my body had notfully responded to the chemotherapy I had gotten several weeks earlier.Other professionals in the office approached the situation rather solemnly as if preparing mefor the worst. I had prepared myself psychologically for the transplant for weeks and now the rugseemed to be pulled right from under me. Additionally, I was given ample time to fret as thebiopsy couldn't be performed for another four days due to tight scheduling problems.Of course, I freaked out a bit as us humans with challenging diseases should at times. Iwent home, had a good cry and decided that the only way to get through the next several dayswas to somehow revolutionize the approach to facing my fears and how this impacted myrelationship with God.Although I had been the recipient of many prayers and had prayed during the entire extent ofmy illness, I had always regarded my situation with some ounce of old-fashioned skepticism.Translation - I trusted God's power but had never given my faith and fears COMPLETELY overto Him. But now, in the biggest decision that was ever to effect my life, I decided it might beworth a try to do this.During the weekend previous to the biopsy, I called a number of friends and familyasking for their support and prayers. Instead of asking them to ask God to MAKE EVERYTHINGPERFECT (i.e., please, please don't let it be cancer), I asked everyone to give me the strengthto hand the situation completely over to God and to put MY FAITH in his ability to allow me tohandle the reality of whatever was to happen. Once this was done, to grant me a sense of calmand peace.The next day, I felt as if giant weights had been lifted off my shoulders. Although Ioccasionally thought about the upcoming biopsy, my mind seemed more prone to contemplateother things. On the day of the biopsy, I felt remarkably refreshed.Still worried around the edges, however, I spent the 3 hours previous to the procedure (whilereceiving a plasma transfusion) in prayer. Having found in a special prayer book words thatcontinually reminded me of God's everlasting presence and ability to renew the mind, bodyingso - I repeated the following several times as if a mantra.INTO YOUR HANDS I COMMEND MY SPIRIT, SOUL AND BODY WHICH YOU HAVECREATED, REDEEMED, RENEWED. O LORD, O GOD OF TRUTH, AS YOU HAVECREATED AND RENEWED ALL THAT I POSSESS AND ALL THAT I LOVE,Never before had I felt so completely invigorated by anything, so much that it far exceededwhat it insinuated, Often we hear the words but only half believe them. Resting quitecomfortably on the biopsy table, I stared at the ceiling with a serenity that is quite inexplicable. Iremember smiling as a little voice in my head said "Have no fear" you will be out of here beforeyou know it".Within moments, one of the surgeons came over and asked (as if a joke) "what side of theabdomen is this mass supposed to be on, the left?" "No, the right," I responded, the other player32
of our newly-formed vaudeville act, He went back over to the scanner and consulted for a fewminutes with the other doctor. I continued to lie on the table fearlessly."So, do you want the bad news or good news first?" he questioned, "The bad news," Iresponded quickly, "Well, the bad news is we have wasted your time today…The good news iswhatever was there is now gone, or at least vanished from the scanner,"Of course, there are not big enough words to describe how it is to be the recipient of suchmiracles but I will say this! When they do happen, don't forget to share them and forever praiseGod's abilities in thanksgiving. After all, that is an equal part of the giving it over to God theory.Czwercko, George, of Arch St. Burlington, born in Austria, 1899-1942. Was a polisher in thatCollins Co.
