Several of you have asked about Bob and his progress. Thank you!!!
His vision has improved greatly; he has not worn the prism lens for several days and is seeing monocular now!!!! Hasn't our God created an amazing human body that heals in its own time with the touch of His hand? He will see the neuro-opthamologist late Oct.
Bob has been able to do lots of things around the house and in the yard. His tasks are still limited until he sees the cardiologist, early next month. They will run tests that day, a bubble test and echocardiogram to check the seal on the previous PFO. We are excited to learn more about those results, although we have no reason for concern.
Bob applied and was accepted into the Carondelet St. Joesph Hospital Chaplain Program. He begins his classes in October-May and then will have his residency hours before he becomes certificated. Bob has always been excited to learn new things and take upon himself new challenges. It is a goose bump feeling for me to know how his strokes and the PFO procedure, brought him at retirement time to this new place in his life. It is obviously another witness to how God is moving in Bob's life. We are both very eager for him to begin this new chapter in his life.
We attended a wedding this past Saturday, the first wedding we have witnessed together since Bob's strokes. I struggled with emotion throughout the ceremony as I once again realized what a miracle it is to have Bob in our lives, and to have him whole once again. Remembering our vows from almost 32 years ago,.... "for better or for worse, in sickness and in health," rang throughout my soul. Thank you, God, oh, thank you, God.
We continue to cherish your cards, prayers and emails and remembering us the past four months. Thank you, oh, thank you!!!!
The steadfast love of the LORD never ceases, his mercies never come to an end, they are new every morning; great is they faithfulness.
