Going Into Surgery

Metisha’s oncologist figured out that the ENT he wanted her to see was on call at the ER today. So the oncologist sent her to the ER so that the ENT doctor would see her tonight. She is now checked in to the hospital, has been seen by the ENT doctor and is going into surgery tonight! The ENT doctor is going to go in through her nose with a probe to clean out her sinuses, fix her deviated septum if necessary and take a biopsy of the bone if he cannot determine the cause of the deterioration through the probe. The only thing she isn’t going to get is her nose job ;)

I talked to Tisha and she is in good spirits. The room she is in at the ER is decorated in Sponge Bob and the ENT likes to mountain bike – two of her favorite things!

We are praising God that the ENT whom her doctor wanted her to see was on call today. We are praising God for her oncologist’s nurse Marie who not only worked all day to track down the ENT but met Mark and Tish at the emergency room and stayed with them until the ENT arrived. We are praising God for Mark and his constant support for Tisha. We are praising God for all of you who are upholding her in prayer.

Continue to pray that God will work through the doctor to heal her tonight. Pray that tonight’s procedure proves there is no cancer. Pray that her vision will be restored to 20/20.
