'God in the details'

Well, yesterday we did make it to the Neurologist and to the Orthopaedist. The Neurologist was very encouraging. He feels that Steve's 'cognitive issues' are due to post tramatic stress but, just for kicks and grins, he has set up an appointment for an EEG. Steve will also see a Neuro-psychologist to do some memory tests just to confirm (or deny) Dr. Miller's assessment. Dr. Miller will also do a nerve level test on Steve's left leg and foot. Now, for the orthopaedist... Dr. Freeman was extremely pleased with Steve's progress. Other than the nerve pain everything else was better than he expected.

Steve is still having a fair amount of pain and he has very little stamina. All of this is normal and understandable, but prayers for less pain and more stamina would be greatly appreciated.

Tues. the 17th Steve gets the archwires/braces off. This metal laces between the teeth at the gumline, therefore they will put him in 'la la land' for a few minutes. After this procedure he will have one more week of soft food and then anything with 4 legs had better watch out!

"The salvation of the righteous comes from the Lord; he is their stronghold in time of trouble. The Lord helps them and delivers them; he delivers them from the wicked and saves them, because they take refuge in him." Ps. 37: 39-40

Love and blessings,
