God Answers Prayer!

Yesterday found Nathan and I traveling to the oral surgeon's office for another appointment to check on the area where the large cyst was removed six months ago.  The surgeon has been hoping that the area will fill in so no further procedures would have to be done.  The first three month appointment following the surgery did not show improvement.  The area had barely filled in, and we were very concerned!  However, yesterday's appointment proved to be so much different!  I was praying and asking God to please let that area be filled in, so nothing else would have to be done.  Yep, you guessed it!  God ANSWERED prayer once again!!!  He is sooo good to us.  I heard the doctor talking to the nurses before he ever entered our room about what a drastic change there was, not knowing he was talking about the comparison of Nathan's x-rays.  I made a comment to Nate that I was hoping he was talking about him.  Sure enough!  The doctor walked in a couple minutes later to show us the x-rays with the HUGE improvement!  Most of the area is completely filled in now!!!  Praise.the.LORD!!!  Nate will need to have an x-ray of that area done once a year for the next five or six years to make sure a new cyst is not forming again.  There is a 40 to 50 percent chance of him getting another one due to the type of cyst it was.  Hopefully this does not happen. I am trusting in God for another answer to prayer.  Thank you to those who have been praying for him. 

On another note, Nate and I will be going to another doctor's appointment on Friday.  He will be seeing a Cardiologist this time to be sure his heart is working normally.  Since he had the episode with Pericarditis a few months ago, I felt it would be important to have his heart checked again to make sure there is nothing wrong with it, and he truly only had a virus.  Please continue to pray for him.  We know God is in control.
