The neurologist and our cardiologist. Because of her heart condition they both have to work together. What is amazing is we have had our cardiologist and he found out about my wife’s problems and his said this is solved and he made one phone call.

Last Tuesday we have a doctor. They started my wife on a blood thinning regiment that they think is best. We are so relieved and appreciative of your prayers.

Afraid not. Parkland turned us down so we are appealing that. We have paper work that should be going through Southwestern soon. She has had another stay in Baylor at Irving for five days. Nothing new other than the scan did change except for the worse.

They found a few paces that she has bulging discs and pinched nerves. She has spinal fluid leaking and that is what is causing all of her headaches. The did two “blood patches” today. I can’t explain those because I have been bombarded with medical advice and procedures so my mind has just about shut down. Your prayers are coveted.

My wife has started having seizures today. They have scheduled more test.

My wife will be having a MRI and a MRA this morning. Your prayers are coveted. Thank you for all the comments and prayers.

She was admitted and they finally had her resting when I left a little bit ago. I have to get ready for church tomorrow so please pray I will be in the right mind frame.

My wife is back in Baylor with the symptoms of a stroke. Please pray.

After my wife finishes her blood thinner she will hopefully be able to go home later.

We are still in a DESPERATE need for a neurologist.

Mary is now in ICU.

My wife went back into the hospital early Friday morning and is still there. Please pray for us to find a neurologist.

No reason to start a new thread for this. This has been all on going. My sweet wife had two strokes in 2009. She suffered a bad stroke on Sunday 29. I was in church preaching and she was having a test while in the hospital. During that test she suffered a stroke. We are so thankful she was able to be treated right away. She is under occupational therapy and speech therapy.

We now have seen the doctor for follow up and was told she has Microvascular Ischemic Disease. We have to find a neurologist which is not easy when you don’t have insurance that covers this. There is not a neurologist in the plan she has for herself through Baylor at Irving. We were told to try to get into Parkland. The issue is she needs a blood thinning regiment (two years ago truthfully). The primary care physician was not very assuring and that is fine because we have faith in our Heavenly Father the Great Physician. So we are in search of a practicing physician so would you please pray with me for her? We have been married for 38 years and has been a nurse to me since 2005 with all my health issues’. Mary is not part of my world she is my world.

God Bless Each of You,
Carl

Thanks to everyone so much for your prayers. My wife has heart arrhythmia problems and hasn’t felt well the last couple of weeks. When they picked her up her heart rate was 168. Your prayers were answered as our cardiologist was already at the hospital. They worked on her and gave her some IV and meds. We just walked in a few minutes ago and she is resting well with Valium. We have a follow up visit with the cardiologist this Friday.

I thank each and everyone of you so much for praying.

I had a funeral to preach today at 2:30. While my wife was getting ready she said she didn’t feel well and just passed out. She was out for only a few seconds. Called 911 and she is at the ER. I took a few minutes to ask for prayer here because I know there are some prayer warriors. I am now on my way to the ER.
