Prayer Request Update

Mom called the insurance today, and found that something, she initially thought it was the WADA test, had been approved. We were all ery excited, but we then found that it was an appointment to adjust my VNS (Vagus Nerve Stimulator; a pacemaker for the brain).
Anyway, most of the anxiety is gone, and Mom is planning on cancelling the July 29th appointment for the grid implant, so that if things don't work out so that I can have the WADA test, etc., finished, and have the surgery approved, on time to have the surgery then, we will have less to worry that someone else will have taken the next appointment, which is two weeks later on August 12.
Please pray that I will have good sleep. I am taking the same amount of medicine as I was taking before the depth electrode EEG, but I seem to be feeling the side effects much more now. Mom has speculated that it might be because I was eagerly looking forward to the EEG then, and I was looking forward to the next one afterward until news came that it would probably be postponed two weeks; and I have been somewhat disappointed that it may not be as soon as I initially thought. I know that it is wrong to worry; I should be thankful that though the soonest possible appointment may not work, measures are being taken so that it should not be postponed more than two weeks. Please pray that I will have comfort and strength from God, as He has lavished on me so far, as long as I have had faith, which I may now be lacking.
Thank you, and God bless,
David Nemati

Thanks David for the update. We are praying for your timing. God will give you the measure of faith you need. Remember, your faith only needs to be in Him and not in what He's going to do (I'm kind of talking to myself now) He will take care of the details ~"if we are faithless, he remains faithful" He's so faithful!!
