Eye surgeons checked him out yesterday and told me he does have vision in his eye, but it has a
"almost rug type wound and scratch" on the eye. He is experiencing some double vision. There is also blood behind the eye, but they believe with time, antibiotics, and an eye patch (to rest the eye), it will continue to improve. He is very sensitive to light, and he tells me it is very "foggy". Pray the eye continues to heal and that he is patient to give it time.
Facial bone surgeons are continuing to monitor him daily. There has been some discussion on whether to do surgeries soon or maybe send him home to continue to rest and let the swelling go down for a short time. I so want them to get this all done, but I absolutely want God's timing! We want him home so much, but they are concerned with his high blood pressure (which he has never had), his low heart rate, his pain levels, and nausia. Pray that God will take care of all these areas.
I will keep you all updated on when he can have visits. He is anxious to see everyone, but is in a great deal of pain this morning. God is on the throne, and we are praising God for his love and faithfulness to us. Doctors are amazed at his progress! I continue to be in awe of the peace and strength God has given us to sustain us. Thank you for your continued prayers. We need them so much! Love and blessings to you all!

Hi there. I'm actually family and I was devastated when I heard about all of this. But with his recovery it sounds like all of our prayers are being answered. I've been keeping track of what's been going on and keeping you in my thoughts, heart and prayers. My dad (Dennis Boothe) also put Dennis' name on the prayer chain at our church. I wish you all the very best and God bless.

Hi my sweet cousins,
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you have this site going now. I hope you'll be able to focus on each other and just being there for Dennis. We are praying all day every day and I know God has awesome plans for you all through this.
We heard through the Moseley grapevine that he was having a rough night- we went right to the Father about it. I know He loves you so much!
I love you,
Jenn
