In Living Color

When KK's vision started getting "darker", she said she was seeing things in black and white. On Saturday, she started seeing some colors again. It is kind of freaking her out. She says, "There are so many colors that my brain is like, 'Whoa!'." Her field of vision is widening a bit as well. I think her optic nerves will need a little more time without pressure in order to heal and figure out how to process colors correctly.

My parents came over this morning to watch KK while I went to church. When I left, KK had a headache, was holding her head and crying. I asked her what number the pain was. She said it was a "1" (probably a 4 out of 10 for most people). At that point, I knew the tears were from the steroids since she was at a "1" most of yesterday without crying. When I called home between services, KK seemed to be doing well. When I got home from church, she didn't have a headache and has remained headache-free all afternoon/evening.

There is one positive to all the new blood vessels that were formed around Charlie through the HBOT...more of the supplement is now able to go directly into the tumor! So grateful that God can use everything for good!

So glad for the improvement, will pray for easing of the steroid effects and, of course, for healing. He is in control.

Thinking of and praying for you both.
