Well, Rebecca felt like she, too, needed something medically peculiar and decided to get skin cancer! As we've been packing and organizing that strange pimple on Rebecca's forehead continued to get our attention. Finally, Rebecca decided that she would go ahead and make an appointment with our family doctor to get it checked out as that would "just make us feel better about things." Neither one of us thought that it would really be anything too serious. Weren't we surprised when after church on Sunday our family doctor approached us and told us that Rebecca's biopsy came back positive for basal-cell skin cancer!
In order to have the necessary medical insurance coverage to have the pimple removed by a dermatologist, all of Rebecca's doctors' appointments had to be this month! We praise God for His providence in working out the details for Rebecca to get in to the dermatologist this month and that we can still fly to Peru by the end of the month.
These various health issues that we have encountered does sober us as we think about returning to the tropics where lots of sunshine and lots of fire ants (thinking of Koleman's allergy to fire ant stings) abound. We do feel confident that God would have us go to Peru, though, and look forward to His continued guiding in our lives.
