To wrap it all up, for today....

Basically, I wanted to set up this website to be able to update everybody. I know everyone would like to know what's going on, and it's hard to make so many phone calls everyday. I will do the best I can to keep you all informed daily. Also, please feel free to leave an encouraging word for my husband. He's a wonderful man of God, and has been so strong through all of this. He's my hero :) We've been through weeks of IV therapy, and infections. This infection kept on mutating and hiding, making it very difficult for the doctors to treat, and risking Chris's leg and life. It's been a daily struggle. We been blessed with amazing doctors: Dr. Peden (his surgeon) and Dr. Callahan (infectious disease doctor). I know everyone has been praying for Chris's healing and strength, for the doctor's wisdom, and for the strength of all of us involved. And your prayers are being answered daily. Thank you so much! We are truely blessed! The Lord has blessed me greatly by giving me a day of rest just before the chaos starts again. I have been rested and ready to go, everytime. His timing is perfect, even down to the smallest detail. After several times in the emergency room, 4 surgeries, weeks of struggling to discover what this infection is while driving an hour away for his IV, and increased intense pain due to the infection, we are now able to see the light at the end of the tunnel and find some rest. Chris is an amazing man. I am proud to be his wife, his helper, and his friend.
