Surgery postponed

Due to another grid surgery patient having a similar bleeding problem to what David had two years ago, his surgery is postponed. Dr. Ross called this morning to tell us they want to look into why they have had this happen several times in the last two years.

We met the young man who had this situation. Last year David and I visited the nurses to say goodbye before he left for college, and we met the young man and his mom. She is a solid Christian lady and her son has a hard case of epilepsy and has had most of the same treatments as David. We got in touch again a few weeks ago before their surgery, and visited a couple times when they went in last week. Saturday she called me with the very sad news that the saw evidence of bleeding on a cat scan so they took him into surgery, and had to take out the grid. It was really good though to be able to encourage each other. We both feel that God is good to us and provides help even though we have to go through this hard time.

We are all fine with this delay and don't mind. That surgery and hospitalization is brutally hard to go through. Maybe God will provide a different way.
