信實的應許者 The Faithful Promise Keeper

化療醫生原本計劃我在5/25，化療六個禮拜之後，做一次Ultrasound檢查，看看療效。不知為什麼，檢查提早了一個禮拜，在5月18號那天就做了。結果顯示腫瘤由二點四cm縮小至零點九cm，淋巴結上的也看不到。

當我問，我可以不可以停止化療，她笑說，我猜到你會這樣問我的。如果你選擇這樣，應該是可以的，不過，讓我去問一問腫瘤科主任，看看他的意見如何。

感謝神，他的拯救真是速速來到，我連第六次的化療也不用做就結束化療的過程：由原定的18個禮拜18次化療減至五個禮拜五次化療就停掉，一切都是神的憐憫和恩典。因為，那應許我們的，是信實的。

5月19號至日做了一次心臟的Echo檢查，檢查的前前後後時間，心臟其實跳得很亂很快。但在做檢查的那一個小時內，卻跳得非常平穩。檢查結果，醫生說我的心臟功能仍然很好。感謝神，祂是我的盾牌。那應許我們的，是信實的。

May 25th. Six weeks after I was on chemo, the doctor wanted to do an ultrasound to monitor my progress. Somehow, it was scheduled a week early. I ended up going in on 5/18. The result showed that the tumor had shrunk from 2.4cm to 0.9cm. You couldn’t even see it in the lymph nodes! 

When I asked my doctor if we could stop the chemo, she chuckled. “I knew you will ask.” She concurred with the idea but wished to get a second opinion from the director of the oncology department. 

Praise God! His rescue comes quickly. I was able to stop the chemo after the fifth administration of medications. God has shorten the process from 18 visits to 5. It’s all because of His mercy and grace. The One who gives us promise is faithful. 

I had to go in for an echocardiogram on 5/19. It wasn’t all smooth. I suffered from cardiac arrhythmia during that time. My heartbeat was rapid. But, it was under control when the doctor examined me. He told me my heart is still good. Praise God! He is my shield  The one who givs us promises is faithful.
