Greetings!
We want to
communicate an item of prayer to you. Last week Zach took a flight to Grand
Rapids, MI, to see a specialist for his left eye. Last December, Zach had an
infection in his eye. After successfully treating the infection, Zach’s vision
began to deteriorate. At one point he was diagnosed with an inflammation of the
inner eye (anterior uveitis). After treating that problem, it became apparent
that Zach had some damage to the cornea of the left eye (the outer layer of the
eye). Despite the best efforts of our ophthalmologist in Haiti (who was very
good), Zach was recommended to see a corneal specialist in the US for further
treatment. Last week, Zach went to the specialist and is being treated for an
ongoing infection of the cornea. The prognosis is good for complete healing,
but it will take several months. Lord willing, Zach will be in Michigan for
several weeks and will return to Haiti as soon as his eye shows clear signs of
improvement. Please pray for healing for Zach’s eye. Also remember Sharon and
the kids who are going to manage in Haiti on their own. Pray for safety,
health, patience and no major breakdowns of car, generator, or other important
items until Zach can return! Also, pray for Sharon as she will be teaching
Christian Ethics and the Minor Prophets on her own this week.
Thanks!
