Today, as I'm sitting in the waiting room of Regional One Outpatient Center, I think back at how quickly things have changed in my life. You never know what God has in store for you. Stewart went from never having injuries or surgeries to constant, religious visits to Regional One Medical Center. We've had to adjust to the dressing changes, multiple medications, garment fittings, laser surgeries, and much more. My "not-so-medically-educated" family has become pros with burn patient recovery. God has blessed us with such an amazing team of doctors and nurses, who Stewart has befriended and looks forward to seeing with every visit.
This morning before getting her IV I asked if she wanted to hold my hand before they stuck the needle in. All the nurses kinda gave me a weird look and Stewart laughed and said, "Sissy you know I've done this a time or two..."
I'm so proud of how far she's come and her positive attitude about the long road she has ahead of her. I know God is preparing my sister for something great. She's going to use her accident to minister to the lost and broken, and even now I see how The Lord is placing people in her life to allow her to do so.
Stewart just came out of surgery- Dr. Hickerson said everything went great! She is still very tired and currently in recovery with her favorite team of nurses.
Thank you to everyone who has prayed for us and will continue to do so!
Ephesians 2:10 "For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do."
