If there’s one thing I’ve learned over my 20 + years of being in ministry its that Satan will always overplay his hand. Well, he has once again… Sunday afternoon, my mother-in-law, Alison, (who lives with us and has been helping me hold our family life together) fell and broke her shoulder! Yes, you heard…

Sarah had a good day resting at home yesterday. She’s trying to get her medications figured out, as to what she needs, for what, and when she needs to take it, etc. Her headaches are definitely at bay, and the vertigo is lessening a bit. She’s moving very slow, which will probably be the case…

It’s Official! Sarah is Home!!! After 12 days in the hospital, Sarah was released tonight just before 7 pm. She began sitting up at 3 pm and by 4, she was sitting in the chair. Her head feels very good. Although she is still struggling with vertigo quite a bit. The Neurologist was in to…

Day 15 since the Headaches began :: Day 11 in the Hospital. Sarah had her Lumbar Drain removed at about 3:30 pm today. The procedure took 30 minutes and she did very well. They did have to give her a couple of stitches without any numbing medicines so she was a bit sore after that,…

Sorry about the late post everybody. I left the hospital late, (which by the way, leaving every night without her is one of the worst feelings ever.) In terms of where she’s at… Today was a very good day. Sarah felt more like herself than ever. So the truth is, Everything leads to tomorrow. She…

Day 13 of the headache :: Day 9 in the hospital. It’s Saturday night & Sarah’s sad that she wasn’t at Next Level Church tonight! We miss our NLC family! Sarah had a great day all in all! She was able to take a 5 minute shower sitting down but she loved being able to…

Friday Evening, 7:45pm, September 15th, 2011 Day 12 of the Headaches :: Day 8 of the Hospital Stay Today has been a day of turn around. Sarah has felt very good every time she’s sat or stood up which is a good sign. Her appetite has returned, which for those of you who know Sarah,…

Today marks Day 7 of Sarah’s Hospital Stay. It’s hard to believe that a week has gone by, and really 11 days since this whole headache thing began on Labor Day. Unreal. As for today’s progress, there is most assuredly a noticable difference in Sarah’s countenance from this morning until now. She definitely still has…

I just got up to the hospital at 8:30 this morning. Sarah had a bit of a rough night. Recovery from the procedures yesterday feels like 2 steps backward. The nausea is back which is really hard. And her headache continues to be constant. So we don’t really know what is from the procedure after-effects…

The Dr. Just came out and said Sarah did great during the procedure. He did a 2nd blood block and installed the Lumbar Drain which is supposed to drain off 10cc’s of spinal fluid per hour. He was talking to her through the entire thing. The hope is that it will relieve the pressure on…
