So as this is being posted, I am headed into Vanderbilt Medical Center to have a Stint put in my throat, so that the tumor does not close it, and it will still allow me to eat. Hopefully this may help to combat a little of the nausea as well, and hopefully it will allow me to eat solid foods again. I have been on a liquid diet now for a week, and I am looking forward to getting back to things I love to eat. I am curious to see what my diet restrictions are going to be. I don't know if there are any, or what they will be. I'll have to let you know that tomorrow, as today, I will be more or less battling the leftover effects of anesthesia. I look forward to posting tomorrow that all went well, and that I am home again.
Thank you so much for your continued prayers.

Hello, Emmett and Wendy (and Q); hope that you are resting well and hoarding all those valuable z's. You need them, Emmett, and so does Wendy. You are in our prayers! Cousin Suzi
ReplyDeleteEmmett and Wendy,
ReplyDeleteWhile I was in Louisville this weekend for the "Adopting for Life" conference, Ben Shive played a song in your honor. "Rise Up". I am sure you are very familiar with it, but I just loved the power that it spoke of..we are already the victors because of Christ. I am praying that you will rest in His victory and that the Lord will bless and keep your family through this painful time.
