Mom woke up sick. 
Hanny had an ophthalmologist appointment at 8:00 A.M.
So daddy took her to see the doctor, then stopped by Dunkin for a treat.

We were shocked to hear she needed to return to eye patching.  Eight months ago she had finished a long season of patching and her follow-up six months ago was so promising, he gave her six months off seeing him.  There was even a little hope that she would be told today that she did not need to wear this type of glasses anymore.

But – she does.  And she needs to also return to patching.

The doctor said correcting the optic nerve is something that usually doesn’t see progress past eight years old.  Hanny is 7.75 years old.  But the calendar isn’t in charge of Hanny’s eye; God is.  So we will not have a spirit of hopelessness.  For we have a High Priest who is not surprised by today’s appointment, and we will patch confidently.

Jeremiah 17:14
Heal me, O Lord, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved, for you are my praise.
