1 Embolization Down, 2 To Go!

I received an update on our friend Kevin Sherman today. His first embolization was this morning and went well. Below is the email update I received from Shanna's dad:

Well the good news is it took a little longer than we thought so they plugged
a few more vessels than they thought. Kevin's left pupil is a little larger
because the had to tug on one of the vessel to remove the needle and they
bruised a nerve, he will have good night vision for a while, but it should go
back down in a month or so. They did a CAT scan to check for bleeding and
they did not see anything bad. He is in ICU today but will probably get into
a room on Saturday and then the next embolization will be on Tuesday. All is
well so far. Keep us in your prayers and things will be okay.


Kevin's next embolization is next Tuesday, the 16th. Please continue to pray for him and his family. If you're not aware of this situation, please scroll down to a previous post titled "Please pray for our friend" and the details are there. I've sent word to Shanna that all of you are praying for them. She was very encouraged and said she felt "covered in prayer". Praise God for a good report today!! Thank you Lord!
