My Reason

My sweet Elijah has used every wish, every prayer, every day to ask for my complete healing. I knew in 2008 because God told me when I first started getting really sick that things were going to get much worse but He would heal me only when His timing is right and He receives the glory for my healing. For those of you that do not know, I have Idiopathic Gastroparesis caused by a genetic condition known as Autonomic Dysfunction. I am currently on IV nutrition through a central line and on several medications. I had a gastric pacer implanted in 2010 to alleviate some of my symptoms and it worked well for 6 months but my nerves quit responding and I finally had it removed this January. In other words it did get much worse. I start this blog now because I know God will not let my baby's faith die.

Day 30

If you read my blog you get the news first. I went to the first doctor who left me dumbfounded because he told me the other doctor I already saw would have to set up that surgery but he was the first doctor I saw in that department and that was the first time I went there so I will have to have that surgery separate. Then I went to the neurologist, he is not an expert on autonomic neuropathy and wants to send me to a guru on that so if my insurance will approve it we will have to go to the Mayo clinic in Jacksonville, Florida. He said he would be happy to be the go between so I should only have to have one visit there and then he could implement what that doctor says. Even though this is a mess at least it is less of a mess than I have had to deal with in the past and because I am already in the Mayo system it should be no problem. I will have my pacer removed Friday, but as far as I know we have nothing else planned between now and then but it would cost the same to drive home and back that it will to stay here and that is so much easier. I am exhausted and in pain so I am going to rest now. See you soon

    Greetings Betsy

    Well, I think this would be considered good news, if for no other reason - it's not bad news.

    I hope y'all got some good rest last night, and that the rest of the week will be good ones for you. Maybe you can talk Clint into taking y'all to Jefferson Park - it's only a short distance from there on River Road.

    Y'all be safe. I hope your surgery goes well on Friday.
