Update on Debbie.......March 1, 2013......by Charlie

Sorry for being so long in updating Debbie's blog. Lots going on! Kidney stone issues continue and I delayed, hoping treatments would be over by now. Dr Dasari in Nashville has been treating Debbie and completed the removal, or crushing, of the stone in her left kidney with shock waves and laser. If she is recovered from her laser treatment performed last Wednesday, she will go next Wednesday, the 6th, for lithotripsy on the right kidney. She is sedated for these treatments and, with her other health conditions from the aneurysm, is slow to regain her original strength after each procedure. Otherwise, home therapies continue when possible, and Debbie continues to show progress and she still has that wonderful attitude and smile. She is certainly amazing, and such a blessing. She also is scheduled for an annual CT scan the 11th with her neurosurgeon. I'll give an update again after these procedures are completed. We thank you for continued prayer for her.
