Late update...again...

I'm so late once again. I'm sincerely sorry. BUT if you are keeping up with, firstly, thank you and thank God for you! I went to the brain doctor last Monday, April 23, and had my first MRI since my surgery in January. Dr. Okie (brain doc) said that the fluid in my spinal cord (the problem this all started from) is "significantly" smaller. That is, it's 80-90% smaller. Yes, God is awesome! He has and is answering prayers, and that is amazing. God/Jesus/Holy Spirit, I believe in the Trinity, all 3 are God just in different forms, is AMAZING. That word falls so short like all words do. It is all I have though, and it's all His.

There's my praise for that bit of good news, but I'm not done haha. The surgery I had was to place my new shunt (a shunt is a drain to help my body out because it needs help now), and the doctor says its still doing its job and looking good. My facial paralysis, double vision and nerve craziness in my left arm will continue getting better and healing. Thank you to all of you who have told me the improvements you already are seeing. I say that I see me everyday and, just like my hearing healing a few weeks ago, I overlook or miss things, sadly. God answered my prayers to give my doctor and those others at UAB wisdom in treating me. That's another's amazing blessing!

My doctor said I was doing well and he will not need to see me every 4 weeks so I will go in 3 months, July 23. I have also scheduled an eye doctor appointment that same day in Birmingham. I am very hopeful that with all the prayers and simple aids to my vision now that in 3 months, I might be healed and canceling that appointment.

Currently, I am looking to begin studying for my CPA exam soon, working (part-time) May 7, and who knows what else now haha.

Thank you for all your sweet prayers and thoughts. I'm lost with Christ, of course, and without you, the awesome shelter He has blessed me with in this life :)
