Hi guys...
I haven't really told anyone...well except mostly Aunt Debbie...and Aunt Donna a little...but I've been having a mystery illness since about May last year. Been feeling really unwell off and on. Have had lots of tests done, and my blood tests have come back with my liver enzymes all out of whack. I've been waiting on the list to see the gastroenterologist through the health care system, but finally decided to go privately and pay to see him. I saw him yesterday and he sent me away for more blood tests and is going to work it up for me to get a CT scan of my liver. And he wants to 'visualize' my small bowel (that sounds like fun), and lastly if he hasn't determined what's wrong, he'll do a liver biopsy.
I thought liver problems were only for those who were alcoholics, apparently not. At this point the best I can hope for is a fatty liver.
It'll be at least a few weeks before I even see the doc again, but I'll keep you guys posted as to what's going on. If you could all keep me in your prayers...I know that would be really helpful. I've had a couple blessings lately and they said not to be scared and the healing had begun, so I'm taking Heavenly Father at his word! (although I am still scared).
I love you all,
sandy

Sandy, Sandy, Sandy...you're supposed to be in the business of healing other folks! I'm sure you are scared and understandably so, but remember those blessings. I believe God works mostly through natural means (the nature He created) and the liver is an organ that can regenerate itself. I'll be praying for you and I'll put you on the prayer list at church. I know you'll let us know as soon as you hear anything. I love you, Aunt Eileen
thanks Aunt Eileen..that really helps!
Well you already know I'm optimistic that it will all work out for you. Still, a little luck wouldn't hurt - send me your address and I'll send something your way.
