My health insurance denied the surgery. I half-expected this, as SUS the Brazilian health system is covering it. Meeting to set a surgery date on Sep 23.

Only Serve Him
Christianity is not a promise to people that if they are good, rule-obeying Christians, no harm will ever come to them.

US Trip
I will be in Baton Rouge from September 12th to 23rd, for my mother’s surgery. I am looking for two different opportunities to preach on Sep 18th while I am there.
Mother’s Surgery
On September 14th, my mother is going to have a surgery on her spine to prevent permanent paralysis. Please pray for her.

Cochlear Implant Update
I met with the Brazilian One Health System dr today and filed all of the exams and paper work needed to be approved for a Cochlear Implant. Now I am just waiting for a date to be set.

Last Vaccine for Now
I just got my meningitis vaccine, so I’m done with all of those now. At this point I’ve taken care of everything on my end for approval. Just have to wait for an official review and approval.

Nilson, my Son.
My 4-year-old son Nilson fell down a full flight of Marble stairs on Wednesday night. He cut himself deep over his right eye and required 5 stiches. No broken bones. Thank you Jesus for protecting him.

Vaccines
Got two vaccines today, one to go. These two were not arm vaccines. They were a little lower and further *ahem* behind.

Not a Christian Fundamentalist
Breivik is being identified as a Christian Fundamentalist by news media. The killer of 90+ people in Norway is NOT A CHRISTIAN. Nope, he’s not.

A healthy heart
Went to the cardiologist today and got an okay for possible cochlear implant surgery. Healthy heart, good blood tests, nice to know.

Online/Offline
Lately I have gone days without updating facebook or a blog. I’ve been busy with offline life. I do have a couple of new online projects in the works.

Re: Cochlear Implant
Things have been slow going for a while regarding my cochlear implant. Met with the doctor this week and things are ramping up, just need some vaccines and to set a date (pending the funding).

I’ve lived this so many times
“That was before I learned how isolated one can feel when she misses a key remark and loses track of the conversation but is loath to admit it.” Betty White, on hearing loss. Boy do I know that feeling.
