Here’s the latest news on Ben. Funny note on getting care in another context…

Hey all,

Just wanted to send a quick update.  I had another doctors appointment yesterday to find out the results of the blood tests.  It went well, and I am not fatally ill.  When I asked the doctor if he knew what was wrong said “yes” smiled, and kept typing up a report for my appointment.  I guess that is all you get when you speak different languages!  I asked him if it could be anything fatal, deadly, or if I was going to die and he again smiled and said “no chance!”  That was about it. We are hoping that it was just virus related and needed to run its course.

 I got off the pain killers Sunday night. Since I haven’t had any episodes and I am feeling better!  Praise the Lord for His faithfulness and thank you for all your prayers!  Between finding this private clinic, an English speaker there, the services being relatively cheap, the results, the right doctor (as little as we spoke, he was helpful), and my health returning, the Lord was faithful to provide and sustain us. He is good.

Let’s keep praying for Ben and Emily as they work with the Calvary Chapel in Split, Croatia.
