Eddie and Martha Marie Smith

So sorry it’s been so long since I last updated all of you.  A lot has been going on, and this site has been difficult to log on to, so that’s not helped either.

I went over a week ago to Atlanta and was completely released by Dr Barrow…he said I was healed and should consider myself a free woman!  It was a great day!!!!  I can not begin to tell you how thankful I was to hear those words…..God definitely worked a miracle!!!  Of course I’m still not up to full energy, and I’m not expecting to for some time, but I’ll get there eventually!!  Thankfully I don’t have many complications from my surgery except getting a little dizzy every now and then…..I do have some weird feelings at times where my incision is healing up as well but the nurse said that was normal and to be expected. 

On the other side of things, I have my gallbladder removed on Wednesday…..I’m not looking forward to it, but so many people have said that it will be a piece of cake compared to brain surgery…..if that’s the case, then I think I can handle that :)  My doctor for this coming surgery said that it will deplete me of energy quite a bit, and it’ll take me a little longer to recover then most, but it shouldn’t be so bad.  For some reason I’m nervous about being put to sleep this time around….I have no idea why though especially considering the fact that I wasn’t nervous at all about that part with the brain surgery.  Would you guys mind praying specifically for me concerning that?  I don’t know if it’s the fact that it’s not been long since my last surgery???  Anyway I would appreciate prayer for that….I just want to have a peace about it, and I’m not there yet….

I’m so thankful for such dear friends as all of you…..honestly Eddie and I and our family wouldn’t have made it through this like we have without all the love and support you’ve given us!   You all have been wonderful!  Thank you for your continued prayers….the last few months have left us worn out in so many ways, and I think we as a family are trying to figure out what normal is for us all over again.  God has and continues to be so incredibly faithful though…..what a friend we have in Jesus!
