Antonyms 1. love.

I was filling out a health questionare today that required me to list medical history of my family. I hated that I had to check the cancer box.. and list my brother on the line. I thought about how for every health paper he'll ever to fill out for the rest of his life he'll have to check that box. I don't think I ever knew how much I could hate something but watching for two years as Graham has gone in and out of the hospital and watching him suffer for weeks while the doctors were unable to bring relief to his pain, this has made me hate cancer.

I'll never understand why he has had to go through this. I will always have a place in me that will hate cancer. There is simply just no reason for it at all.

With that said, I couldn't be more grateful for God's protection on his life and I couldn't be more thankful for the research they have made in science in curing cancer because I couldn't imagine my life without my little brother in it.

My brother graduates high school in a couple of weeks. Just another step toward God showing Himself victorious in his life. There is nothing greater than the sovereignty of my Savior and His ability to work things out for the good of those who love Him.
