A prayer from a stranger...


This week I had chemo cycle # 7! SO Im past the halfway mark! Unfortunately Im one of those patients that sticks out like a sore thumb, with my age and that I look younger than I am. So on Tues. a older woman caught my eye and she smiled at me as I walked by her station...and me just being me smiled back. The woman had just finished up her treatment and walked by my "station" to the restroom, and smiled at me once again. As she left the restroom and toward my 'station" again, she stopped and waved her hand and pressed both her hands together(a sign she was praying for me)and pointed to me. I mouthed"Thank you" to her and she went on her way. At that moment I felt at peace once again. And to know someone you don't even know is praying for you is so comforting. So this is like the 2nd time a stranger has reassured me and given me that peace...God is so good. I thank God for that lady that day.
