Sorry for the silence. We made it home and I made my appointment today with the retina specialist. The exam results were good. I likely was experiencing a prolonged ocular migraine from sleep deprivation giving me visual field problems for about 3 days. The retinologist says my retinas look good and I don’t need to go back for a year! Thanks so much for your concern and your prayers. Much appreciated.
We are doing laundry and trying to catch up on mail and emails (about 250 in my inbox this morning!). I will be heading out Saturday for a quick trip to the Seattle area for 3 church services (morning at Mountainview Assembly of God at Smokey Point Campus then Marysville Campus and evening at Lake Stevens Assembly of God). Come out if you can – I will be talking about our work in Haiti. I will then return home Monday morning and participate in another conference call with the Haiti Hospital Bed Capacity and Capability working group Monday and then plan to head to Haiti and Washington D.C. to work on the same this week. We continue to collaborate with our friends at Convoy of Hope and are working to supply medical professionals to areas of need working beyond and across organizational lines to benefit the people of Haiti.
You guys are great. We’ll try to keep you up to date on our activities. We may not have daily posts due to the administrative workload and travel but we’ll do our best.
Thanks and God Bless. Dr. Jim
