Slight Schedule Change

So fun to get mail - this one's a letter from cousin Ryland

As it goes with doctors, hospitals, and schedules, we have a slight change in the schedule. Logan had another CT scan done today with VTI imaging, with and without contrast. This was done on the most high-tech machine in the Valley, allowing the biopsy process, if needed, to be exactly precise.

We are to bring Logan in to see both his specialists tomorrow afternoon, at which time we'll discuss the findings of the CT and plan the next step.

I do not say this as a "diagnosis" in any way, just as a mom reporting what she sees. When Logan's eye should be increasingly bulging and ready to "pop", it's not happening. It is not worsening - not at all. He has been off the steroids for a week which normally causes his eye to approach emergency status. His eye is prominent, but not bulging as before.

I cannot know what the doctors will say tomorrow afternoon, nor what the biopsy may reveal. All I know is that we are summoning every bit of strength to remain calm, to trust in God, to hope for the best, to take care of our little boy, and to walk the path that, for whatever reason, He has spread before us. I know that God's people are praying and as my mother reminded me just a couple days ago, "God never turns a deaf ear." I know He is working out His purpose.

I also know that the prayer of a righteous person avails much - right now your prayers are, among other things, chasing away the enemy, the fear, and the uncertainty and bringing us hope. Keep praying, please.
