bittersweet..



A week ago a wonderful, God-fearing woman went home to be with the Lord. Though my heart is sad, I rejoice in knowing that I will see her again one day. DeAnna was diagnosed with cancer in 2004, and had been in remission twice since then. The fall of 2008, she was diagnosed with cancer again. She had a tumor removed, and was sent to Indiana for an aggressive treatment. Upon her return, her doctors informed her that her body was not responding to treatment and that this cancer was going to be terminal. She took this news with grace, and Praised the Lord that she would have some more time with her family and friends. I have never experienced such unwavering faith. DeAnna was a true inspiration. I am proud to call her friend, and mostly, my sister in Christ.
