The wait

If you have ever been to the doctor you have waited - it seems everywhere you go you wait - whether it's at a restaurant, grocery store or retail store - you wait at the hospital as well as waiting at a stop lite - this is a different kind of wait - many of you have experienced this kind of wait to some degree - it's that waiting to see another doctor - more importantly an oncologist - I had just learned about cancer growing from my cervix to my uterus and now I have been told I have to see an oncologist - the wait was about 2 weeks - for me it was the longest period -  my original doctor told me about how long treatments would be, and for me it was like ok let's get this started - let's get this done, I gotta get back to living - never in my wildest dreams did I know what was gonna happen next - when I was first told I HAD cancer and it was slow moving but yet all was gone - I couldn't understand the big deal - if you got it all then I'm glad you told me but  why see an oncologist? Why have treatments? - then I was kindly reminded of the "suspicious" mass near my pelvic lymph nodes - the wait seems like it takes forever - you are told to wait but yet hurry up - I did a lot of waiting before I began everything - waiting will teach you patience - waiting will teach you to rely on God just a bit more - waiting will teach you to enjoy the moments you have - waiting is quality time spent with a friend - waiting can turn into memories if you allow it - we are all rushing here and there and it's at those times we get impatient and do not want to wait - the days are going by way to fast and there's nothing you can do about that - but you can check yourself the next time you are waiting - because while you are waiting for a phone call, at the grocery/retail store, at a stop lite - someone out there somewhere is waiting for the news on a test, so the next time you find yourself waiting, if you are with someone then make memories and should you be by yourself while you wait then it is the perfect time to practice patience and a lil relaxing / 

My next post will be on "the talk"
