Praise!


I have a "praise" to share...Trevor has been feeling a lot better the last couple of weeks (after about 5 months of not feeling well at all). He had an MRCP on Monday & a Dr. appointment on Tuesday. The Doctor said that while he didn't have the full report yet, the radiologist indicated that his pancreas did not appear to have a lot of damage. He feels that, especially since Trevor is feeling better now (which could last days or years) that any invasive treatment would be far worse than the symptoms. He has given Trevor a different dose of anti-nausea medicine to help manage on the days when that is an issue. As many of our friends & family know, we were expecting to head off to U of Indiana or Mayo clinic this month in search of answers. At first the news was a little frustrating as we just want to be able to "fix" it! However, after digesting this information, we are both grateful that his pancreas is holding it's own and are confident that we can manage this without seeking additional treatment right now. We have to remind ourselves that while he has struggled with this consistently for the last 5 months & regularly for the last year+, he had been nearly symptom free for a whole year before that. We are grateful for the health he has right now & will continue to pray for many more symptom free days.
