On February 2, 2010, Sharon was diagnosed with autoimmune hepatitis. After weeks of treatment, there was no improvement and the words "liver transplant" became part of the discussions. The unthinkable became our reality and a liver transplant was the only option. We wondered, even questioned what God's plan was in this, but our prayer was that no matter the outcome, it would be ALL for God's glory.

The purpose of this blog is to record the journey...to recount God's faithfulness through trial and pain. A cry for mercy and healing for Sharon. A place where friends and family can come to get updates and specific prayer requests. Please feel free to comment and encourage our hearts.






Floating on God's Grace in the Sea of Mercy

Psalm 3:3-6

"But you are a shield around me, O Lord; you bestow glory on me and lift up my head. To the Lord I cry aloud, and he answers me from his holy hill. I lie down and sleep; I wake again, because the Lord sustains me. I will not fear the tens of thousands drawn up against me on every side."

Swelling in Sharon's body has been caused by the surgery, but more so by the fluids that have been necessary to be given to her. Because doctors have not been able to close the incision, she continues to leak fluids...they continue to replenish fluids with outside sources. The vicious circle of more fluids causes excessive swelling....therefore, doctors have not been able to close the incision. Doctors are continuing to follow this closely and are becoming more concerned there may be something they are missing.

Today, an exploratory surgery will happen where the team of doctors will go in and look around to see if they see anything that may be causing the fluids not to flow properly.

Please continue to pray for wisdom for doctors and strength for Sharon.
