Praise the Lord!

Two days ago I had concrete put in my pelvis to seal up a crack that had formed because of the Multiple Myeloma. The procedure lasted all morning and I was on my way home by that evening. Yesterday morning I woke up with excruciating pain in my hip from the procedure. Charlie took me back to Lewis Gale to see if they could help me. They immediately admitted me for two to three days to help manage my pain. They kept me pretty well medicated the whole day which helped tremendously because of the amount of pain I was in. The doctors said the pain was due to inflammation around my hip due to the already aggravated area where they put the concrete.

I woke up this morning, Friday, at around 4:30 and was pain-free enough to make it to the bathroom by myself. The last time I got a dose of medication was this morning at 2am. I am feeling so much better today which is a huge praise because I thought the pain would be something I would have cope with for some time. We are waiting to hear back from the doctors to see what their plan is for the rest of this day. I am scheduled to get a round of chemo some time today.

We will keep you updated as we find out more information. You can become a follower of the blog to get email updates when we post new news!

Thank you all for your continued prayers and thoughts. I am very upbeat this morning and am thankful for God's strength.
