In the past I always thought of myself as agnostic, I knew the lord was there but never truly gave my heart and soul over to him, until recently. My wife has always been a strong christian woman, she knew when we met I was not as religious as her but that did not deter her from preaching to me the wonderful word of the Lord, trying her best to teach me the joy and fulfillment that his light can bring. She never in all our years of marriage gave up on me, she has always been my rock not that she would ever want that acclaim " it's always the Lord" she would say smiling at me whilst pointing upwards to the sky "he deserves all our praise, everything we owe to him". A few months ago we were both watching tv when she stood up and started complaining of seeing bright flashes in her eyes, suddenly she collapsed and suffered a brain aneurysm followed by a seizure, she was taken to the hospital where they done a CT scan and found a large tumor in her brain. They done another scan which found a large mass in her lung, they told us that it was stage 4 lung cancer that metastasized to her brain. They have given her only 6-9 months to live. You can only imagine our devastation at this news, she was completely normal and healthy with no signs of anything wrong at all. I feel like my whole world has been ripped apart from my soul. I have been on the verge of a complete mental breakdown at times but it is always my wife who looks at me and says "this is all part of the lord's plan, don't worry". She has never once questioned why this is happening, why her? what did she do to deserve this? She has always maintained complete and utter faith in the lord. It is during these darkest of times that the light from her love for the Lord has shone upon me and brought my soul upwards to the Lord's wondrous embrace.
My wife who has given everything to our two children and myself, would like to spend her days when she is not drained of energy from the cancer treatment, writing a novel as a testament to our Lord and for all the blessings he has bestowed upon our family. The novel would contain several instances in her life that she feels God was present and helped her through the good times and the bad. For instance she has had major brain surgery and been released after two days with miraculous healing, her tumor has already began to shrink significantly after one chemotherapy treatment. When she is not recovering from the effects of brain radiation and the chemotherapy treatments, this is her dream, to testify to the wonders of the Lord.
We have two children, our 13 year old daughter and our son Seth who has cerebral palsy and needs full time care, I had to give up working to take care of Seth and my wife.
