Lilyen and Harry Update.

[Guest guest]

Your prayers have paid off big time for Lilyen and Harry. Harry's eye

infection has cleared up and it looks like he won't lose his vision. Lilyen's

is

even a more dramatic " miracle " as her vascular surgeon states it. She was

sent to him because her MRA said her carotid artery was 70% blocked. He

checked her again with an ultrasound, and her artery was clear as a bell. No

blockage whatsoever. He said he had never seen such a huge discrepancy in the

tests and thought this surely was a miracle. She has an appointment on Monday

with an orthopedic surgeon for her shoulders. Will let you know more when I

hear. She said to thank everyone from the bottom of her heart for the prayers.

This is a " powerful group. "

She has an appointment with Dr. K on August 6 so they WILL BE AT THE POOL

PARTY. How cool is that? She is seeing Dr. K because she can't eat more than

8 ounces at a time, and her doctor feels the mesh might be pressing against

her diaphragm hence the difficulty breathing. Wish I could come but we will

be in Denver for two weeks starting July 31.

Marla,

Thanks for sharing that fantastic news with us! Isn't that wonderful?

I am thrilled that they can be here for the pool party as I haven't

seen them for a couple years, I think.

Hi all...its me Lilyen...I figured if I wrote some bit when ever I can and

put it in drafts till it's done, I can at least communicate a bit. From the

bottom of my heart I want to thank all of you who put Harry and me in your

prayer pockets,or just sent positive thoughts our way. They have helped a

great deal... Harry's eye is almost back to seeing normal...now he can see

dirt on his glasses...before he couldn't see out of that eye and one doctor

was afraid he was going to need a corneal transplant....big time scary. He

sees the specialist again this Friday and I am sure that the every wakening

hour eye drops will change....the cell phones are sure handy to set alarms

by the way...He will get a steroid shot in his spine on the 25 they will do

it in the hospital as an out patient...Please hold him up once more in

prayer that this time they put it in the right place...the last time the

doctor didn't and it did NO good at all...It is kind of hard to see this

sweet man so crippled up...I know all to well the pain he is having and I

would do anything to help him to be free . After I was tossed out of my

wheel chair...(it was a new electric on that Harry had removed the rear

wheels that prevent it from tipping over and forgot to put them back on or

tell me they weren't there) they rushed me to the hospital and started doing

more scans on my head neck and shoulders they found such stuff...tests are

nasty things...they tell you too much...lol...So now I get dizzy when I sit

up fast or when I lay down.or try to reach up high to get something..the

stuff they had me doing didn't help and now they want me to do some more

stuff and sit up for 48 hours after that ...something about the crystals in

my inner-ear having traveled where they weren't supposed to...So now I can

prove I have rocks in my head...lol...sitting up for 48 hours is a good

trick in the motor home ( it will have to wait till we move in our house)...

Yep we still are in it ...our house is still not done...another long and

frustrating story that I wont bore you'll with..However the end is in

sight...perhaps the end of August....

Any way..They had me in seeing on vascular surgeon to open a artery that a

MRA said was 70 % blocked ...they said I couldn't have any kind of surgery

until that was done..They had me scheduled to go into the hospital the next

day to have it rotor-rooted...After he was done testing me he said the MRA

was 100% wrong and he had never seen that test that far off...Said " Lady

this is some kind of a miracle " ..well the last of two surgeons had rather

grim news..The first said I needed two total shoulder replacements..and told

us that they are rather difficult to do as not that many shoulders wear out

and they are way behind hip and knee replacements.in being perfected. The

second one said yes they are rear,and you do need them both replaced but

that he knew a few that did them and he felt that the people who I had seen

that had NO use left in there arms from shoulder replacements had the old

total replacement and now days they just cut off part of the bone replaced

that and trimmed away all the bone cysts and spurs. Now the first doctor

told me that it was no good to just removed the cysts and spurs as they grew

back within three years ......So who do you believe?? Now they both want me

to go through this very painful test that they find out where the most of my

pain is from...My shoulders or my neck ....that has 7 blown discs. spurs

galore..and arthritis the fibromaelgia and heaven only knows what else...but

you know .....what I feel in my gut...is that everything is going to be

ok...I trust my life's path to my Creator....I don't understand the why of

pain or the nightmares we have had to endure these last few years....It

would be nice to understand...how some ever .....life goes on and life is

good!!!..and friends are precious. I am so grateful to be able to call you

my friends. We are so looking forward to the pool party and seeing you'll

.....I will be in town for the monthly meeting also. If anyone is going to be

in the hospital during that time let me know and I will pedal myself over

and say hello...Also what can I bring to the party and I will need

directions...We will be staying at a R.V. park in Bakersfield I believe.and

I would love to visit or chat with anyone in a air conditioned

place...lol..I have a good ides how hot it can be.....and living in N.M. I

know the value of air conditioning.....Hugs to all...Lilyen

Lilyen,

Thank you for taking the time to update us. I will send you directions

to my house and I think there is a file on the site with the same

there. You can come sit at my house and enjoy the airconditioning if

you don't mind if I study! lol I mean, I don't study 24/7, but I am

doing quite a bit of it.

Hopefully when you are ready to return home, all will be complete. Of

course, you are probably ready to return home now, right?

Of course we will continue to hold Harry in our prayers.

You need a referral to a top notch expert in the field of shoulder

problems. Please ask Dr K's office for a referral. The choices you

have been offered are too far apart for comparison. Wouldn't it be nice

to have an angel on each shoulder until you're healed! Praying for your

and Harrys return to the finest health. See you in Bako/Delano.

Oh Lilyen, I'm so glad you'll be at the meeting in August! My mom

and I will be coming up. You and Harry are continually in my

prayers. I can't even begin to imagine all the pain and

uncertaintly you're going through but I know things will happen just

as they are supposed to.

Look forward to seeing you next month!

Hugs!
