uphill climb

The last week or so the journey has taken a sharp turn uphill. Nancy has been pretty out of it since coming home. She sleeps lots, and is pretty foggy when she is awake.

Today's visiting nurse is convinced that what we are seeing is the result of some unhelpful drug interactions. I worked on getting the two of her doctors to talk in order to coordinate her meds most effectively. Meanwhile, her heart rate is still high, but not currently out of control and she has no fever.

Dan Passerelli preached at New Life today. He said, if you have small sins and small needs, get a therapist, but if you have big sins and big problems, you need Jesus." A week like this reminds me that I need, I have a BIG SAVIOR.

Ask HIM to lift the confusion, the fatigue, the tumor and the fear from us as Nancy and I climb this hill together.

Terry & I are keeping you in our prayers. What a testimony to God's faithfulness that you continually point those following your journey toward the Savior. It is the power of Christ within you that is so obviously the strength that you are relying upon.
