March 23, 2006: Thursday – Panic Attack: Another blessing asked and given

The time is once again closing in: less than a week until the lumpectomy!

I awoke this morning feeling anxious and panicky. I didn’t understand why I would be feeling this way after the many wonderful insights and beautiful blessings given me over the last few weeks. But there it was… Every little thing that seemed wrong or was even slightly out of place was magnified 100 times in my mind. I was in tears before long and asked Rex for a blessing about noon.

In this blessing, I was given to know that (during the operation?), the doctors would either have a ’stupor of thought’ or a clear idea of what needed to be done if/when confronted with any unusual situation.
Rex and I can have confidence in the choices made thus far: the blessing and promises given are still in effect….
The blessings of former blessings will comfort me - come to mind - when I most need them….
This blessing today again talked about the loving support of family and friends and the nearness of the Holy Ghost.

As Rex and I talked this morning, we discussed the difficulties of this challenge of which he is carrying the major burden, especially with the federal tax return date fast approaching. It seems that I can only wrap my mind around one major project at a time (maybe a couple smaller ones). Right now, my total energy is in battling the cancer and healing my body.

Kicked back this afternoon and finished, “At First Sight” by Nicolas Sparks. I never would have guessed the ending!
