Not so good news first: About 2 weeks ago I mentioned that I was feeling bad. My doctor thinks I may have diverticulitis acting up. So after a couple of days on a liquid diet and 10 days on antibiotics I am feeling better but still having some pain. Talked with him today and he said to do another few days of liquids only and 10 more days of antibiotics. Then they will probably do a colonoscopy just to make sure everything is ok! Prayers appreciated. I am anxious to get back to Alaska and am learning much about patience these days.
I did get some GOOD NEWS today though. I had my yearly visit to my cardiologist. Went just a little early so that when doors open for us to go back to Alaska I will have that visit over with. Anyway, he said my heart sounded really good. I was still uncertain about a cardiologist in Alaska. He said he will take care of finding one in Anchorage who knows about Adult Congenital Heart defects.
That is a blessing to me!
God is using the events of the past several weeks to teach me to rest in Him. I woke up this morning thinking about one of the little boys I met at a VBS we helped with in Craig Alaska when we were there. He loved the wordless book bracelets we made, and said he would never take it off. So thankful that God chooses to use us and praying that we can get to the people of Alaska Very Soon!
