Bethany

Bethany had a MRI and doctor appointments this week. Thankfully the remaining tumor has not changed in size. However, there was an area of increased dye enhancement within the tumor. This could be due to several factors, but the concern is that it indicates cell activity which in the past has been present prior to tumor growth. Please pray that if it would be God's will, that would not be the case this time. She will return in March for another MRI.

I just wanted to share our excitement from therapy today. Bethany was able to walk without using her cane! She still wears the brace and needs the cane for uneven surfaces, but this is a huge improvement. We're so thankful for this encouragement!We're also thankful that her last MRI two weeks ago showed the tumor as being stable. She will return in three months for another MRI to continue to monitor any change.

Thank you, everyone, for your prayers!!

Currently Bethany needs to go for physical therapy an increased amount of times. The family was wondering if anyone would be able to help in taking her so as to lighten the load for the two younger children. If you are interested in being blessed with some time with Bethany please give Ann a call, 675-4885.

Mark 3:34-35
Then he {Jesus} looked at those seated in a circle around him and said, "Here are my mother and my brothers! Whoever does God's will is my brother and sister and mother."

We are so blessed to have Bethany as a sister!

Overall Bethany is doing well. She does have new weakness in her left leg and continues to have appointments to try to determine why and how to treat this. Thankfully an MRI of the brain shows that the tumor size is stable compared to the January MRI, and a complete spine MRI was normal. Her eye has begun to open a little some of the time, but she still has double vision when it is open.Please pray that the doctors will be able to help her regain full, normal use of her leg, that the tumor will remain stable or, Lord willing, shrink, that her eye would continue to heal, that she would regain overall strength, and that the Lord would bring comfort when she becomes frustrated or discouraged.
