We thank God in our every remembrance of you all.
Today was a good day. Kelly had his second sinus surgery. We were concerned over the possibility of loosing his sight in his left eye. The fungus was around the eye and an optometrist was going to possibly remove the floor of the eye and insert a catheter in order to inject the fungus medicine directly around the eye.
Well if you don't believe that God answers prayer, no offence but you are wrong. Many had been praying that God would remove the fungus and surprise the doctors and basically that's what happened. The optometrist came out of the OR only 10 min. after entering and, with a smile on his face said the the eye was no longer swollen shut as it had been for a week and that there was no need to do his part of the procedure.
The ENT, (ear, nose and throat) doctor worked on Kelly for almost 2 hours and once again cleaned out the sinuses and implanted catheters just beneath the inner part of Kelly's eyebrows so the medicine can go directly through the sinuses.
The other great praise is that the pathology for the lungs came back negative for the fungus. He does have pneumonia but so far no fungus.
It seem that the fungus has stopped progressing, which is what the medicine is supposed to do but Kelly's body needs to begin producing white blood cells in order to kill the fungus. His white blood cells are almost non-existent, which is what the chemo was supposed to be doing so... now we wait for his body to grow white blood cells and kill the fungus.
Kelly and I are very encouraged by today's outcome and see God's hand directly upon us and we are so grateful for all of your prayers. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!
Sincerely, Gabriela
