Hello Dear Friends! I hope this e-mail finds you all doing well. I am doing great. Your prayers continue to sustain me--still INFECTION FREE!! I have had two saline injections since my surgery. Dr. Bauer said he thought I would need 6 to 8 total to expand my tissues to the "desired size". My FINAL surgery is scheduled for December 11th. At that time, Dr. Bauer will remove my port (I can't wait) and will replace these tissue expanders with the actual breast implants. I had a check up with my oncologist Monday. That went well too. I will have all of my scans repeated in January to make sure the cancer has not returned. Everything is going really well! I just can't thank each of you enough for carrying me through the past 8 months! It has been some kind of ride--that is for sure! Below you will find a forwarded e-mail from one of my very best friends, Shelly Jarvis. Apparently, the past several weeks she has been secretly working to put together a Race For The Cure team in my name. She (and the team) have raised almost $1600 to date and are currently in second place in our division! Long story short, it was supposed to be a surprise for me--I was not supposed to find out about this until the race day. But, as we all know--God had a different plan! He revealed this little surprise to me in the sweetest way today via my younger brother, Jay. So, I asked Shelly if it would be okay to pass along this information to all of you. I have spent the past 8 months trying to run away from breast cancer. I told Chris last week that I didn't want to go to the race because I just want to put this behind me and pretend it never happened. His response was, "Don't you want to be an inspiration to others?" And my response was, "I just want to forget about this and never be reminded of it again." Well, once again God has revealed to me that running away is no way to handle any situation. I know that I should embrace this experience and use my experience to help others. I can think of no better way to do that than to humbly ask each of you to make a donation to this team that Shelly has worked so hard to build. Your dollar may be the dollar that finds a cure to this horrible disease. I will proudly attend this race, and every other race as long as I live because I am a survivor and my hope is that some day that race will be a celebration of a cure for breast cancer! I continue to be amazed at the avenues God uses to help me continue on this journey. Thank you for listening to Him as He has used each of you to guide me along this journey. As for the race and the team, anyone can make a donation and if any of you are interested in joining the team you can e-mail Shelly at shelly.jarvis@ascentchs.com or shellyandjamie.jarvis@yahoo.com for more information. You can also do that using the links below. The race is Saturday, October 11th in Little Rock. I would love to see all of you there. The women can actually participate in the race and the men can cheer us on! I have made it through the past 8 months because of each of you. I love each of you and am so thankful to have such an awesome Army of Angels on my side! I love you more than you will ever know! I thank God for each of you daily! I continue to need your support and prayers! Thank you for loving me! Thank you for loving my family! Thank you for loving God and listening to him lead you my way! You are all awesome! Much love!!!
