And now may the Lord bless you and keep you.

May the Lord make His face to shine upon you and be gracious unto you.

And may God grant unto you His peace-in your going out and in your coming in,

In your lying down and in your rising up,

In your labor and in your leisure,

In your laughter and in your tears,

Until you come to stand before Jesus

In that day in which there is no sunset and no dawning.

Amen

Maybe a final diagnosis

The Spinal Cat Scan showed damage to the nerve at T-10. This nerve radiates around from the spine to the belly button.
We have been to see a spinal specialist. Another MRI and a nerve block are to be scheduled.

Please continue to pray.

I don't like it...my DH weighs less than I do

With all the pain DH is going through he is unable to eat much and when he does there is always something left on the plate.

He has dropped over 50 pounds since October 15, 2010. It is only about 2 pounds per week...but this is not the right way to loose weight. His weight has been in muscles as the fat is all gone.

We are waiting for the doctor to call with an appointment for an MRI and an epidural. If I don't hear in the next 20 minutes I will be calling the doctor myself.

Keep praying. Even when I do not know who is praying for me it comforts me and helps me through the tough times.

Prayer for caregivers, individuals with long term illness and their families and friends.
