I was reminded once again that I don't want to drive home after 2pm from Sherman Oaks. The 1.5 hour trip took nearly 3 hours.
I first stopped off at my eye doctor, Dr. Baskin and told me my Iritus was finally gone but why am I still seeing spots? Apparently I have a traumma induced cateract. Dr. Baskin said he has seen this kind of thing happen to people who have had trauma. He wants to watch my eye for a few months and sometime later I suppose I will get the short quick surgery.
I then continued on to GBC and met up with Dr. Peter. I still have some open spots on my head and they were acting infected. When they rotated my scalp there was a pinky nail sized spot where they could not close the scalp together. this area healed over then turned grey and then became an open wound again. Dr. Peter said the open spot goes right down to my skull. I will go back on the 27th and if it is not closing up He will do a little precedure in the office and stich it together.
Sunday 7-19-09 marks 4 months since my accident. its been an incredible road of support, mercy and Healing. I am still thankful, still feel fortunate, still feel blessed, and still am so glad for your support and love for this old guy and his family.
I have just heard about a 17 year old boy who was shocked by high voltage. Jacob was shocked while at the beach of all places. if you have time could you please pray for him? He is just getting out of being in an induced comma and is in a lot of pain.
Here is has blog. Jacob's Journey: Small steps
He gives and takes away, my heart will choose to say, Blessed be the name of the Lord, Job 1
See ya.

Hello!
ReplyDeleteSo sorry about these issues of cataract and spots. We are praying healing for all of this. You have a great attitude but I'm sure it's a bit of a drag to keep having new issues--or lasting issues. At least we all have you, issues and all :-)
Yes, we'll pray for Jacob. Also praying for a little girl named Irene that we know here. She pulled a pot of something hot off the table and burned her face and scalp. She was in Norway (her Mom is Norwegian) so she's being treated there and they expect good results.
We send love!

Jacob is the son of my church high school youth group leader. She's an amazing lady and had a big impact on my life. I thought of you immediately when I heard and would love to put you in contact with them. Thanks for praying for them!
