Another Bandaid

Have you ever noticed how little children beg for a bandaid when they get hurt? My boys always did. It's like they have some magical power to make all of the pain and hurt disappear. The infusion treatments I have been receiving I refer to as my bandaid. It doesn't really fix what is wrong just makes things a little better for a short while. I had my third infusion yesterday. I had hoped that I would be feeling much better by today but the overall weakness is still with me. I tolerate the leg weakness much better than the whole body fatigue. I guess today will be a pajama kind of day. I don't care for them much - I'd much rather be at work with all of my buddies. Have I told you I work with the best people in the world?? Without them I would be a mess right now. I cannot be there and not smile. God knew where I needed to be at this time in my life. Any doubt that God is sovereign? Ask me and I will prove to you over and over that He is.

Next week on Tuesday I will go to the Sparks Center at UAB for the nerve tests. For those of you prayer warriors out there please pray that these tests will help to form a final diagnosis and treatment plan. My body is so weary and I m ready to get that real bandaid. The one that will hopefully get to the root of the problem. I know I have a rough road ahead but am anxious to get on with it. I have so much to live for and am ready to begin the fight.

My blogs will have much scripture in them as I need them now more than the air I breathe. I hope that my walk with the Lord during this will show you that He is very present in our time of need. He gives me scripture after scripture to cling to for hope. For those of you who know how crazy I can be I'll tell you I even slept with my bible last night. Whatever I must do - I will do.
I love this one. . .

Behold, the eye of the Lord is on those who fear Him, On those who hope for His lovingkindness, To deliver their soul from death. Psalm 33:18-19.

I am counting on His lovingkindness right now to help me get well.

Well that's all of the energy I have for the day so until next time. . .
