Tomorrow is surgery number 15 in the string of surgeries for my headaches. Tonight as I have been contemplating the surgery I have questioned again whether this is the right decision. Why so many surgeries? Am I to quick to just jump into another surgery? But yet I have tested the theory at home by covering one eye and then the other for periods of time. It truly does help a lot. Do I think that my headaches will be gone? No. My prayer is that the Lord is providing a way to decrease the intensity of the headaches although I trust that He could remove the headaches.
My head has steadily been stronger although some days worse than others. This last week has been particularly challenging. Kyle finally gave me a Toradol shot Wednesday afternoon and I felt better Thursday. Then I had him give me one Friday morning--the last day I could have one--in hopes that I would feel okay Saturday. I had woken up Friday morning with the headache pretty strong again. Thankfully the strategy worked and I felt pretty good on Saturday. That was very important to me because my sweet niece, Bethany had a shower in the morning and my sister-in-law and I were putting on a second shower in the afternoon. Feeling well was an answer to prayer!
So tomorrow I will have another surgery. It should be simple and easy to recover from. I so hope and pray that the Lord will allow me to have more relief from these headaches!

Hi Cindy!
Yes, Saturday was very busy, but it turned out great! :-) I had a lot of fun doing the shower with you! I pray that your eye procedure goes well this morning and I pray that you can feel the effects of that procedure very fast.
Love, Robin
