My God is AWESOME!

Right now, I am so blown away... it's crazy! Okay, so most of you know how my uncle has cancer - a really aggressive cancer that was in one of the later stages. That pretty much translates into: not good. However, the doctors were optimistic because they caught it early (early detection is the best cure... lol, health class!) and because he is in such good shape.
Well, they went down to Maryland to the prestigious John's Hopkins University hospital. It has a really good cancer program, and they were going down for tests. Eventually he is going to need to start some clinical trials, but they needed to know where the cancer was at and everything.
This is what really gets me. He had tons and tons of tests done today. It turns out that the tests show no cancer cells! I am astounded and so happy.. I could burst! Now before you get too giddy (like me), the doctors have said that this type of cancer has been known to hide before.. so they are going to continue with the treatments and everything. However, I am so happy that God is working a miracle in my uncle! We have been praying for him since he was diagnosed in June. He has gone through chemo, he has suffered the side effects, but we have never given up hope of his healing.
I believe that God can work miracles. I believe He is working a miracle. And I am just so, so happy. Thanks to everyone who has prayed.. but keep praying! He's not completely through it. I will keep praying with increased intensity until God heals him completely and definitely!
Thank you God for answered prayers!
