We just visited with the new neurosurgeon, and don't quite know what to make of it. Of course it's his first evaluation of Rick, and he doesn't have a lot of good things to say. This is such a roller coaster ride. Dr. Mercer felt like his movements were more purposeful, but Dr. Reeves is not convinced of that. The cat scan shows a little improvement, but he said that an MRI is not even necessary at this point, it won't change the course of treatment. At this point it's more rest and making sure we fight off things like pneumonia and bed sores. I have to keep believing...I will not give up hope.

Yes just keep believing and having faith that God is doing the healing process. We always need to remember it's in God's time not ours. We love you all, and will keep praying for healing and strength. Eddie & Nancy
ReplyDeleteCrystal, you hold on to every positive word and do not focus or let the negativity outweigh the good. I think it is awesome that the trama doctor has used the word "PURPOSEFUL" in relation to Rick's movements. There is great connection in the fact that God has a "PURPOSE" for everything. Stay strong mentally and physically! As I said before, this is just another step of faith the Lord is wanting you to take. Trust Him with all your heart! Love you, Shelly

Try to hold on. Cara and I thought alot about you tonight and are aching for you having to go through this. Rick is so lucky to have you on his side. I know you are tired, sad, mad, frustrated and hopeful, just hang in there. We love you.
