Neuro-ophthalmologist on Friday

Kara has an appointment with a neuro-ophthalmologist on Friday. She is still experiencing occasional starbursts in her field of vision. Hopefully, the doctor will be able to determine what is causing the starbursts and recommend a treatment. The appointment will last about three hours. The nausea Kara was experiencing last week has fortunately subsided, but it has left her pretty weak.

Prayer requests:
- Pray that the doctor is able make a diagnosis and prescribe a successful treatment.
- Pray that the issue with her vision is something minor and easily treatable.
- Pray to give Kara the strength she needs for her appointment.

Those who know Your Name
Will TRUST IN YOU!
For You, Lord, have NEVER forsaken
those who SEEK YOU.
Psalm 9:10

Surrounded,battered by troubles,BUT
NOT DEMORALIZED.
We're not sure what to do, BUT
GOD KNOWS.
We've ben spiritually terrorizedBUT
GOD NEVER leaves us.
We've been thrown down, BUT
NOT BROKEN.

What they did to Jesus
They do to us -
Trial, torture, mockery; murder.
What Jesus did among them
He does in us
HE LIVES!!!!!!!!
Our lives are at constant risk for
Jesus' sake -
This makes Jesus' Life all the
MORE EVIDENT in us.
While we're going through the worst
YOU'RE GETTING IN ON THE BEST.
2 Corinthians 4:8-11

Kara, We have almost floated away in the New Braunfels operation - trying to get Mom's home ready to put on the real estate market.
But-thankfully some progress has been made and we think of you and your progress and the wonderful group of folks who are caring for you and your course of treatment.
How very fortunate that the same wonderful people are involved in seeing you through each step - but most of all that you are willing to continue the climb to each treatment regimen and give your energy to the success that you know our Lord Jesus has for you. We know that He must be guiding you all the way.
Please feel our love, our concern and our prayers. Each are there each day, each hour, each moment. You are our inspiration. Love, Gem

Hi Kara,

I'm so happy to hear that your nausea is gone! I hope that you get good news from the eye doctor tomorrow and they are able to treat the starbursts. Have a wonderful weekend!

Love,

Hi Kara,
How grateful we are that you have completed the Novalis treatments and are coming out of the nausea from the chemo.
We pray the Lord's blessings on you from head to toe and trust your visit with the neuro-ophthalmologist will be helpful and the visual disturbances will subside.
We continue to pray for many experiences for you of trusting in the Lord our God as He keeps you.
Love,
Aunt Karen and Uncle Don
