Prayers Appreciated
 
Hello all.........The weekend of May 3rd my wife and I took a short trip to Lake Charles to relax for a couple of days. Sunday May 3rd. on our way back home we stopped just west of Houston in Wharton TX at Bucees (a gas station) to fuel up and take a restroom break. As I walked in everything went blurry. My wife had to help me back to the car. She has worked extensively in the ER and she asked me if I thought I was having a stroke. We did some initial tests (FACE) and with the exception of blurred vision, I had no symptoms of a stroke. I asked her to drive me back to Corpus and upon our arrival at the hospital a ct scan was done which appeared normal, however, a MRI discovered a stroke in the visual center of the brain. (cerebellum) vision is blurred and left peripheral vision is pretty much non-existent. The neurologist says it should improve over time at least some. Please keep us in your prayers and especially my wife as this is especially hard on her. Thanks

God bless you, He is able to heal you and give strength and courage to your dear wife, in Jesus Name.

So sorry to hear of your troubles, and will certainly be praying that the Lord touch and help you! Are you able to see out of your left eye at all? Such a difficult thing to go through for sure!

I will also be praying for your healing. That has to be very scary. I have a lot of personal experience dealing with strokes in a close family member. I am glad you sought medical help quickly.
