Author Carol Kuykendndall:\u00a0A good doctor is often more than a doctor in our lives<\/strong><\/h3>\n

At my husband Lynn’s recent regular appointment with his\u00a0neuro-oncologist \u00a0, we talked about quality–of-life issues.\u00a0 Lynn has been on chemotherapy for more than a year for his\u00a0recurrent \u00a0brain tumor \u00a0\u00a0and when the doctor asked how things were going I confessed that Lynn had been using the word hopeless more often.<\/p>\n

The doctor swiveled his\u00a0 chair and looked directly at Lynn.\u00a0 ” I treat your cancer, but I also treat you as a person,”he said “and it’s important to feel hopeful about something in life.\u00a0 In fact, if you reach the end of a day and can’t think of the reasons\u00a0\u00a0you are glad you lived through that day, we need to make some changers.”<\/p>\n

He paused and then asked Lynn, “What feels hopeless?\u00a0“That I will never feel,”better than I do right now”\u00a0 Lynn answered.\u00a0So the doctor outlined an option to cut back on some of Lynn’s medications, including his chemotherapy doses.\u00a0 We really agreed to make those changes.\u00a0Maybe even more important, we thought, took the doctor’s other suggestion, which had nothing to do with medications but\u00a0to do with finding hope.\u00a0 At the end of the day, at dinner or before we fall asleep.\u00a0 I try to remember to ask Lynn that simple question:\u00a0 “Why are you glad you lived through this day?<\/p>\n

The answers had varied: a grandchild’s birthday celebration, voting the brilliantly changes\u00a0of colors of the trees, accomplishing a banking task or clearing up an insurance snafu.\u00a0 But here’s what has been most hopeful: for\u00a0both of us, that question seems to open our eyes to all the possible answers tucked into each day. Father, may I embrace the grateful-for-life moments. You give me each day….Carol.<\/p>\n

I pray also that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened\u00a0in order that you may know the\u00a0hope to which he has called you….Ephesians 1:18<\/strong><\/p>\n
