Back to Back


This was my view yesterday morning at a spine doctor appointment for Miss Erin.  The day prior, August 4, her primary care physician noticed an abnormality in her back and referred us to a specialist.  Erin has a form of idiopathic scoliosis--meaning there is no known cause.  Being poked and prodded is very humbling. Knowing what you don't know is a scary thing and there were some tears of uncertainty yesterday.  

Our blessings, however, are so great!  This problem was found relatively early!  It could be much more severe.  Erin is in no pain.  She is not restricted from athletic activity.  We have insurance.  There are doctors and a medical field able to help us.  We have family and friends who love us and are praying.  For all these things, Jesus; thank You!

Guide us, give us wisdom, place the people You want in our path.  To You be the glory forever and ever.  Amen.

Cruising for a bruising

Oh help...this is a test of patience for Ellen and myself!  Oh Ryan, dear, we need you here!  Really, she's doing great; I just am not a good teacher so it kind of goes like this..."stop, stop, STop, STOp, STOPPPPP!"
And then irritation. And then frustration.  And then loving again!
Good job El!
