Well...can you tell it kind of fell apart? I'm sending Amy the goodies I have for the card challenge! I feel bad that I didn't follow through any more....but life has its way of getting IN the way!
Will share the story of our anniversary weekend in the next post...it REALLY was a good thing! But right now if you are reading this I would like to ask you to pray for my wonderful hubby....several weeks ago we got him new shoes...this is the FIRST time since his prosthetic he got some.....he had a pair of steel toe shoes that looked like tennis shoes that just lasted....
So....we go shopping...found him two pair, good pair mind you....NOTHING cheap! Well...about a week after wearing one of them I noticed a blister on his little toe...uht oh....NOT a good thing for a diabetic at all....so....let's switch to the other pair.....just made it WORSE....he had a Dr's appointment and was smart enough to show her....off they take him to the foot care specialist.....she fusses and gives him meds....sends him home.....well.....she also gave him this silly shoe and said when it heals they would get him diabetic shoes....well...this silly shoe just made matters WORSE....it was not supportive at all and he started walking on the side of his foot...the side where the little toe is....and you guessed it....it became WORSE...much worse....went to the Dr Monday and she called in the actual dr (nurse practitioner is who he was seeing)....she ordered blood work....and litterally scalped his toe....he has no skin on it....and they found a blister on his heal....she also scalped that....and ordered him to STAY OFF HIS FOOT or he would loose the whole thing! Came home on double antibiotics only because his blood count was at 16 and they won't admit until it is at 18....
So....we are doing all we can, but mostly praying!!! He goes back Friday to evaluate if they will admit him and take the toe on Monday....we COVET prayers.....
Some of the Elders in our church are coming over tonight to anoint him and pray over him.....we covet all prayers! STORM THE GATES!!!!!
So...needless to say....the card challenge was left in the dust....Amy though...is about to get a nice little goodie box from me!
