Tues. Night

The older I get the more I realize how much I don't know and understand things about this world in which we live.  It makes me long for heaven in which there will be no pain, suffering, and sin. It is hard for my mind to comprehend that.  Cindy had a better day again today.  Some of the cultures are coming back and the results are negative for infection.  They are going to treat her as if she does have infection due to her symptoms last week.  We are both thankful that she is in Iowa this time around instead of Maryland.  The N.S. here is still not convinced that she needs a shunt.  This morning they decided to clamp off the shunt tubing from draining again and see what happens.  Maybe just maybe they will be able to remove the shunt or it will convince the N.S. here that she really does need one.  We will know more tomorrow about that and the remaining cultures.

Wow, I am really wondering what is going to happen with the shunt clamped off. I thought they tried that in Maryland and found that she did need the shunt. Well, I hope today goes well for Cindy!! Prayers are with you guys.

Dear Cindy, Kyle and family,
We are sorry to read about the tough times you are all in again. We can understand that sometimes you are overwhelmed by all complications and issues that occur. Still we hope that today still goes relatively well and that the origin of the infection and the problems with the shunt can be resolved. We are with you in our thoughts.
Warmest regards from the "overseas gentleman" and his wife,
Herbert & Ellen
