Bettyjo Update

Bettyjo went to see the ENT today. It looks like she may still have a hole in the esophagus, as he did see some air bubbles. The exterior wound is healing, all be it slowly. She no longer needs to have it covered. She will see our family Dr. in August for the blood clot. Hopefully the ultrasound will show that it is gone, and she can stop using the blood thinning medication.

Bettyjo Update

Bettyjo has made very slow improvement since my last update. The wounds in her neck are healing very slowly. The constant change in the barometric pressure has caused her rheumatoid arthritis to flare up, which is very painful and causes a fever, so we are never sure if she has another infection or not.

One blessing is that while I have been traveling for work some this summer, her sister & parents have been able to stay with her. She has enjoyed spending time with them.

Thanks for your continued thoughts and prayers.
