Talking Scan

Had an MRI yesterday for my very painful back and ribs and I'm still NED!!!!!
I'll find out more on Monday but they didn't want me to worry over the weekend.
Thanks be to God and to your prayers.

OH Kasey...........I can "feel" your joy and trust me when I say I feel it too. There really is no better news you can hear, is there. Dear one, enjoy your weekend, as I know you will.


Praise God!

Kacey, That was SO NICE of them to give you the GOOD news ahead of time instead of making you wait. I wish ALL of our doctors would be so thoughtful. That waiting is stressful. I am truly thrilled to hear you got the all clear. Yeah! Now...ENJOY your weekend...go have some fun.

Great news, I'm sure you're relieved. And how wonderful that your doctor thought to tell you so you wouldn't worry. Sounds like a keeper.
