Good News Tonight

Although it was a stressful day, we are happy that Laura is resting well and her heart signals, etc. are all very good. Her CT scan and EEG came back fine and tonight we were able to meet with the neurosurgeon to discuss her MRI from 2 weeks ago. Dr. Smith was able to relieve a lot of worries we had about the initial report we had been given. Laura will need another surgery to remove some cysts behind her nose, but Dr. Smith is confident that will take care of this problem with no lasting effects. This is such good news. We'll probably have this surgery in December, but it will be a shorter recovery time.

Thank you all for your prayers for us. It's a very trying time physically and emotionally and we are grateful for the myriad of prayers offered on our behalf.

When Darrin told me that they thought it was the cysts that were causing problems, I thought how wonderful that you were in the hospital where the doctors could take care of her. If it had happened at home who knows what would have happened.
It still amazes me how God arranges all things.
