Story Of The Week Helped Me With Cancer Diagnosis.
Submitted by: Trish McWhan
Whitehaven, United KingdomI believe in the power of thought but often let stress get the better of me. I have Multiple Sclerosis, Crohn's disease, Trigeminal and Bowen's disease but believe I can cure myself of each one. I'm working towards this one day at a time. I am grateful for Rhonda Byrne's books helping me along my journey. My conditions are under control and I am thriving, running my own business with my husband helping others. I love life and I carry the Universe in my pocket at all times.
Within a week, someone’s story of the week helped me to deal with a cancer diagnosis.
I take an immunosuppressant medication to treat my Crohn’s disease and it can cause increased photosensitivity to UVA light and increases the risk of getting skin cancer. I had noticed changes in several areas on my arms, the back of my hand, and both legs. Although I don’t normally look up health conditions as thought becomes things, on this occasion, I felt it would be sensible.
I saw images that were similar to mine that pointed to skin cancer so I immediately made an appointment to see my GP. I was a little nervous as I knew I may have to stop my medication which could result in a flare-up. Since I have Multiple Sclerosis, I am limited in what medication I would be able to take and this scared me just as much as the thought of having cancer.
Then I went into full ‘I’m going to ignore my fear and feel nothing but positivity’ mode, and I knew I had the Universe in my pocket at all times. I knew that I would find the strength I needed.
On the 22nd of February the day before my GP appointment, I came across ‘A Secret Scrolls’ message from Rhonda Byrne and The Secret Story of the Week. It was called, ‘Unexpected Transition” By Renee from California. Renee’s situation was totally different to mine but the Universe guided me to her story and her words in her last paragraph which said, “I never would have gotten to this place without the Universe readjusting my path on my behalf! What looked to be a dismal situation is turning out to be the best thing that could have happened! Hang in there! Your rough times might be just part of the process to get you to where you need to be!”
I had said to my husband that 2023 would be a year of change, didn’t know how but knew great things were in store for me and Renee’s words gave me hope.
Magic happened on the day of my appointment. I did my daily blessings and thanked the Universe for a perfect outcome to my appointment and the kindness of the staff at my GP practice. I felt so calm walking in and three amazing things happened:
1. As I was waiting, a lady asked the receptionist for a drink of water as she was struggling to talk. She was given a glass of water and she said out loud, “Thank you so much, this surgery is amazing, you are all so kind.” I immediately said under my breath a silent thank you to the Universe that I had the best GP practice that would take care of me.
2. Within seconds a gentleman came out from seeing a doctor and said to a man he knew, “She is lovely, what a great doctor she is.” Again I thanked the Universe for having an amazing GP.
3. A couple of minutes later a man came in with his wife who didn’t have an appointment and asked if they could help his wife as she felt unwell. Reception informed them she would arrange for a GP to come and talk with them. “Thank you, thank you so much, you are all so very kind”, he said almost crying. I nearly wept with joy as I said thank you to the Universe for a third time.
This is unusual as normally the words I hear people say aren’t that friendly but maybe my thoughts were not the best at those moments either.
To cut the long story short, my appointment went great. It seemed that I may have cancerous cells but I knew I would be taken care of and all would go perfectly. I was immediately referred for an emergency appointment at the nearest major hospital for just 4 days later.
I have read all of Rhonda’s books. I journal my blessings or remember the magic every day on The Secret Super App or in my own journal where I also doodle and get creative, which I love to do. So on the morning of my appointment, I did day 14 ‘Have a magical day’ from The Magic book. Then I visualized the whole day going perfectly. I wrote down my blessings in my journal and drew a huge rainbow, not the usual arch one but a long, flowing one like a waterfall. It just came to me to do this. I also wrote, “Emergency appointment at Carlisle. All is well, all is perfect!”
The journey to the hospital was 140 miles round trip and I and my husband decided to take the scenic route through the Lake District to get to the appointment. And what a stunning journey it was! The sun was shining, I found toilet stops along the way and I read the chapter about health in The Secret book. Just as I had finished reading the chapter, we saw a huge rainbow just as we turned off the motorway to get to the hospital. It was not your ordinary rainbow either, it looked like a waterfall coming from the sky, just like the picture I drew! Wow! The Universe is truly awesome! My husband was speechless as he had seen my doodle. Was I nervous? Absolutely not.
My appointment went perfectly. I was diagnosed with Bowen’s disease and have a growth of cancerous cells in the outer layer of the skin in several places but it is treatable with chemotherapy cream and I may not have to stop my medication either. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Then I saw another rainbow, a curved one this time as I came out of my appointment. The journey home was quiet, even though it was rush hour and we watched the sunset through the windows on the way home. It truly was a perfect day.
Thank you so very much Renee for your story. You really helped me find magic and miracles on the days I needed it the most. I know that my story will find its way to someone who is looking for strength and they too will pass their story on to help even more people.
Thank you Rhonda because the ripples you have made in this world have reached so many people who have created their own ripples reaching even more people.
Never stop believing even in the darkest days, magic is all around you and you can always carry the Universe in your pocket, close at hand whenever you need it. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
