Update on hubby's CAT/SCAN results......
He finally had the scan last week and the results are uncertain. There are no issues with his Gallbladder or Kidneys. But they discovered a 15 mm cyst on his pancreas and a thickening in the colorectal area at the site of his cancer surgery he had 13 years ago. They do not know if it is just old scar tissue or something new that is developing. Now he is scheduled for a MRI. Back to the waiting again. In the meantime we will move the Castor Oil pack to over the area of the Pancreas and pray that it may do it's work on the cyst. He has only mild discomfort every once in awhile but it does not last long.We are at peace. God knows what is going on. Our trust is in him.
His mental state is deteriorating quickly. His short term memory is gone. He has gone from a competent, organized person (was a long term Nursing Home Administrator for many years) that took care of all the finances, got the groceries, took care of everything pertaining to the car and did everything to make my life easier (not because I demanded it. That was just him) to now being in total confusion with any of it. My one big concern is that he is still driving. When I suggest it is time for him to hang up the keys he is astonished and says that's his only independence he has left. He does not think he is a hazard on the road. He often says I hope I don't get dementia but that's exactly what he is experiencing. I don't know what the future holds but I do know Who holds the future and that brings such sweet peace. God allows these things for our good and His glory.
