MRI is in "the books"

Thank you for your overwhelming support from my first post...the text messages warmed my heart.  I will try and respond when I can...but know that they each meant so much to me.

The MRI went very smoothly this afternoon and I even got a compliment for the "fastest" person getting out of the MRI machine once the scans were done.  I know that probably doesn't surprise many of you.

Thankfully, at the last minute, I decided to have the headphones with Christian music.  Truly each and every song was sent straight from God through the Pandora station.  The first being, "thank you for the scars...."  It kept my mind at peace and my body still and comfortable.  It always amazes me that God cares about all the little and big things in our life. 

A big thanks to my Mom for taking me to my appointment and even squeezing in lunch before my massage at 2:20.  I tried to imagine the MRI machine was like a massage, as I was laying on my stomach...but the real massage was WAY BETTER.  I am pretty sure I took a nap during part of it...which was perfect.

Upcoming prayer requests:
1) We should hear back from Dr. Guthrie with the radiologist's report from the MRI late tomorrow or Monday.(most likely on Monday)   We continue to pray that there is nothing else of concern on the MRI scans and that the pictures were clear and easy to read.
2) Peaceful weekend before we head to Seattle on Wednesday to meet with the doctors at Seattle Cancer Care Alliance.

Praise:
1) Peaceful night sleep last night for Curt and I
2) Calm heart during the MRI
3) Inland Imaging has the MRI and Mammograms results burned on a thumb drive for me to take to Seattle...we are thankful they got it done quickly.
4) ALL OF YOU and your love and support.

We love you all and will update when we hear back about the MRI results.

Love, Rachelle
