Prayers Appreciated

Hello all.........The weekend of May 3rd my wife and I took a short trip to Lake Charles to relax for a couple of days. Sunday May 3rd. on our way back home we stopped just west of Houston in Wharton TX at Bucees (a gas station) to fuel up and take a restroom break. As I walked in everything went blurry. My wife had to help me back to the car. She has worked extensively in the ER and she asked me if I thought I was having a stroke. We did some initial tests (FACE) and with the exception of blurred vision, I had no symptoms of a stroke. I asked her to drive me back to Corpus and upon our arrival at the hospital a ct scan was done which appeared normal, however, a MRI discovered a stroke in the visual center of the brain. (cerebellum) vision is blurred and left peripheral vision is pretty much non-existent. The neurologist says it should improve over time at least some. Please keep us in your prayers and especially my wife as this is especially hard on her. Thanks

God bless you, He is able to heal you and give strength and courage to your dear wife, in Jesus Name.

Re: Prayers Appreciated

So sorry to hear of your troubles, and will certainly be praying that the Lord touch and help you! Are you able to see out of your left eye at all? Such a difficult thing to go through for sure!

I will also be praying for your healing. That has to be very scary. I have a lot of personal experience dealing with strokes in a close family member. I am glad you sought medical help quickly.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.

"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.

"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."
