I can almost see it

The stomach issues are getting better, PTL. The anti-biotics as well we the pain pills seem to be doing there job. So, I'm praying that it will go away. Had the bone marrow biopsy yesterday. Painful as always but I made it through with my mom and God by my side. Today the doctor came in to give us the results and unfortunately, they were not good. The cancer is back. Honestly, all I wanted to do when he told me this news was to grab him by his doctor's coat and shake him as hard as I could and just scream at him. WHY??? WHY ME???? WHAT DID I DO FOR THIS TO COME BACK???? YOU'RE DOCTOR-FIX ME!!!!! But I didn't, I just sat on my bed, silently listening to what he had to say and trying to not look at my mom because I know she was crying and that was something I didn't want to do. So, I start chemo again tomorrow. 5 straight days of even rougher stuff then before. Once I've completed that, the doctor said we should hopefully be able to proceed with the transplant but we need to make that I'm healthy and the cancer is NOT coming back. So, more prayers!! We serve such an awesome God and I know He is going to heal me 100%. There will NO more bumps, NO more hills, and NO more mountains. I will get through this with everyones help and above all, God's help. Below are some lyrics that kinda fit. It's by Miley Cyrus, who I'm not the biggest fan but oh well =)

The Climb


I can almost see it.
That dream I'm dreaming, but
There's a voice inside my head saying
You'll never reach it
Every step I'm takin'
Every move I make
Feels lost with no direction,
My faith is shakin'
But I gotta keep tryin'
Gotta keep my head held high

There's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be an uphill battle
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose
Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waitin' on the other side
It's the climb

The struggles I'm facing
The chances I'm taking
Sometimes might knock me down, but
No I'm not breaking
I may not know it, but
These are the moments that
I'm gonna remember most
I've just gotta keep goin', and
I gotta be strong
Just keep pushing on, but

There's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be an uphill battle
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose
Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waitin' on the other side
It's the climb

There's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be an uphill battle
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose
Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waitin' on the other side
It's the climb

Keep on movin'
Keep climbin'
Keep faith baby
It's all about, it's all about
The climb
Keep the faith, keep your faith, woah
