Thank you so much for your prayers for me last week as I had another procedure on my throat. The doctor was only able to dilate the constricted area to 13mm before it started to tear. He wisely stopped and decided it would be best to stretch the esophagus in increments.
The good news is that even that little bit of dilation has made it a bit easier for me to swallow without food getting caught as easily.
The bad news is that we have to go back down again for another dilation procedure on December 5th and again on December 28th. After that, we’ll have to wait and see.
I wanted to let you know how things went and ask for continued prayer on this matter. I’ve been asking the Lord for wisdom to know what steps to take regarding treatment, etc., and will continue to seek His will going forward.
The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in his way. ~Psalms 37:23
It’s a great comfort to know that HE KNOWS each trial and difficulty we face and has a path and plan for us to follow. He also promises to go with us through it all. We have a wonderful Savior and Friend!
Thanks again for your prayers,
Don
