Success!

I have a normal heart beat!

I had my echocardiogram and cardioversion yesterday

And everything went as smoothly as possible.

Yay!

Sometimes it can almost seem weird

When everything goes according to plan

Without any hiccups:)

But...I don't mind 'everything going according to plan'

I follow up with an EKG next Tuesday

(Note: Did you know that there is no difference between an ECG and EKG?

An ECG is the English spelling and an EKG is the German spelling)

To confirm that there is no atrial flutter

But all seems good from my standpoint.

Cindy and I just completed a 3/4 mile walk part way around the lake

That went great

Though it was definitely the tortoise and not the hare version of a walk!

Next Friday I will be back on track to meet with my oncologist

To discuss where we go from here.

We will be discussing the results from the echocardiogram

To see if it showed a separation between the tumor and heart 

Enabling the possibility of radiation or removal of the tumor.

Certainly something to pray about...

I will also potentially begin another round of chemo and immunotherapy 

On that Friday, November 20th,

Which might make Thanksgiving a bit less enjoyable

BUT...I will be alive to celebrate it with my family!!

So much to be thankful for...

Both the challenges and victories

God causing all of them to work together for my good:)
