When I created this scene on my iPad, it reminded me of rolling, green hills where a flock of sheep could graze. š
So this verse I lettered from Luke immediately came to mind. Almost 10 whole years ago (September 2012), I was in the ER for left-sided weakness and a left drooping eyelid (this was before I had my mitochondrial disease diagnosis). And my pastor came to visit me in the ERāhe shared that comforting verse, and Iāll never forget it. ā¤ļø
I had my endoscopy last week, and sadly, it didnāt give us answers we were hoping for. It mainly just ruled out things. š¢ The problem is, the scope canāt go down far enough and doesnāt even reach the jejunum where my feeding tube is. He did say the medication Iām on can help heal anything that may be down there..
My GI specialist called my surgeon who placed the tube, and they talked about what else could be the issue. The intestinal spasms are so severe that they push my tube in and out which causes horrible pain. š My surgeon told him some patientsā pain can get better with a different kind of tube.. Sheās out of town, though, and sheās usually booked out as well, so I have to keep waiting.
Trying to take Jesusā words above to heart and to āfear not.ā This latest trial has been going on for half a year now, and Iām not sure if it will ever end.. But I know God has a plan, and I need to trust Him.
Thank you so much for praying for me. ā¤ļø
Your faith in God is humbling and an example to me. May He be sufficient for your every breath, dear Kerissa.
Dear Mrs. Klein,
