A "Small" Victory

Pain is a very ugly word- specially if it stops one from walking and doing the very basic things like going to the bathroom to pee. For several days now, Ernie was experiencing pain of such nature coming from the fracture in the pubic bone. It was equally painful for me - although mine wasn't a physical pain, it was intense nonetheless.

Pain specialist Dr Dong's prescriptions worked wonders, thank goodness - Ernie was much improved yesterday and completely pain free today!! He was thrilled with his condition and joined me for organic veggie shopping at Centris Sunday market. He enjoyed looking around the stalls, chatting with vendors and bought a chic native cowboy hat-something he had always dreamed owning!

What pleased us more was that his most recent x-ray done Friday night showed the words "NO BONE FRACTURE SEEN"!!  I am not an orthopedic onco surgeon and I don't understand fully what the report meant, but last time we looked (Biopsy surgery done ) - his pubic bone was really broken, not a hair line crack but broken into 2 moving parts! Truly and really PRAYERS ARE POWERFUL! All praise and glory to GOD for this "SMALL" victory!! Thank you all for your love and prayers!

"This, the first of HIS miraculous signs, Jesus performed at Cana in Galilee. He thus revealed his glory, and his disciples put their faith in HIM" - John 2 : 11 NIV
