Update #2 On ‘Join Me In Prayer For Sarah’

Update Logo

Hi, sorry itโ€™s been a little over two week since the last update, but weโ€™ve been waiting for this mornings appointment before we could bring you more news.

Sarahโ€™s had a few complications in the last couple of weeks, so weโ€™ve been back and forward to the hospital to try and narrow down whats causing them. Sarahโ€™s cornea developed a scratch and an infection which was causing her a lot of pain and irritation. (understatement!) ย They first gave her more eye drops and said to come back in a couple of days.

We returned with more irritation, sleep depravation (the pain has been keeping Sarah awake) and Sarahโ€™s eyesight had become very poor, Sarah said โ€œitโ€™s like trying to look through a frosted glass windowโ€. Another doctor said that Sarah maybe allergic to the preservatives in the eye drops, and prescribed “preservative free” eye drops. We then had to wait 10 dayโ€™s before this mornings appointment.

The doctor said that he could see no sign of infection, and the scratch had healed and disappeared. Yay! But the reason that the eye is healing so slowly and continues to be very sensitive is the Diabetes. The nuropathy is slowing the healing, making the eye feel like itโ€™s about to burst and maintaing the extremely itchy painful irritation thatโ€™s driving Sarah crazy, which, is making her really fed up. ๐Ÿ˜ฆ

We have another appointment in two weeks time and iโ€™ll keep you lovely friends updated. Sarah was really hoping to be back at work this week and is trying her best not to feel too inpatient!ย 

We both thank you all so much for the love, kindness, prayers and support as you journey through this with us. Canโ€™t thank you enough! ๐Ÿ™‚
