Here we are in Oct 2016 and I am learning we are never out of the woods and simply have to enjoy the months strung together where Elizabeth ( and I ) enjoys good health. A typical year since 2009 for my wife has involved multiple stays at the hospital for bacterial infections and residual effects from the many surgeries she has had for flesh eating disease, gull blater removal, twisted bowl, and strep A. To say this has been a stressor in our home, marriage, kids lives would be a considerable understatement. However to say we have not enjoyed God's abundant provision would be even more of an understatement. He has been their each step of they way helping us when we reach our limit.
Elizabeth's latest diagnosis is diverticulitis, a very painful inflammation in the bowels. Again we turn to our God for refuge to lead us through this latest jungle. Satan is there every step of the trail, throwing thistles, whipping branches and other obstacles in our path. We trust God to increase our faith and thank him for sustaining us.
