In Ephesians 3:12 All this is proceeding along lines planned all along by God and the executed in Christ Jesus. When we trust in Him, we're free to say whatever needs to be said, bold to go wherever we need to go. So don't let my present trouble on your behalf get you down. Be proud!
Am I anxious? In Philippians 4: 6-7 it says "do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.
These verses reside in my mind the last few days more than ever.
So, Monday ( our goal of 6 weeks and 2 days after initial surgery was met!) The answer to our prayers were answered! We went in for Derek's surgery only 2 days from the plan. Besides waiting and getting a late start on surgery, the procedure went well. The external fixator came out in 5 min. and it took Dr. G an hr and a half to remove the 2 screws deep in D's ankle. Most of the pain and discomfort comes from that removal..and will prep him for a clean ankle to get fused in the near future. We'll see how Derek is with walking and returning to work and go from there.
I've had a slump of a week. Being told that I'll have weekends to work and a cut back on my schedule only opens me up for looking once again for another job. It's a real downer....let me tell you.
So I'll keep my head up and get through this one.
Keep up the prayers for a clean healing of Derek's incisions, continued bones to heal and that in 6 wks we can get a bit of walking possibly. in 2 wks we get this temp. cast off, and get a sophisticated walking boot on. This is a praise so that Derek can wash, air out and feel a bit of freedom when we can remove the boot.
