June 30 - Your prayers make a difference

It is such a blessing for me to know that you are there praying for me and I'm sure you are getting others to pray as well.  This is all like a bad dream and I keep wanting to wake up.  Just when I deal with one difficult thing there comes another and another.
 Your prayers can make a difference.  The eye specialist I saw yesterday told me that the diabetes has really made a mess of my eyes and because of broken blood vessels behind my eye and bleeding there I am in the process of going blind. This process my be able to be slowed down, but I could totally lose my sight over the next 5 years without some extremely expensive laser surgery.  Not good news.
 Today I will find out what they are doing about my foot.  I believe I will be going back in the hospital for a couple days for the Dr. to totally open my wound.  After that it will require a vacuum dressing for as long as 2 months.  If it doesn't heal properly they might have to take more of my foot.  This process considering everything could cost another $100,000.
  How am I taking all of this.  Honestly?  After a couple tough hours each time of crying and feeling like I am fighting a losing battle, people like you give me the strength and courage to face this with confidence and think of brighter days ahead.  It's difficult.
  So today - (Thursday) June 30 at 3:15p I will get the details about what is happening next. Your emails, prayers, phone calls and visits mean so much!

Thanks for your prayers.  I wasn't sure how GOD would answer them but, I believe HE has answered in a way we might not have thought of.
