Good afternoon everyone,
I wanted to give you an update on my visit with the surgeon today. (For some of you, this may be the first e-mail you’ve had from me about my recent health concerns. A little background, a scan right before Christmas showed some suspicious lymph nodes and I was referred to my surgeon here in Lancaster.)
The surgeon confirmed that I do indeed have some enlarged lymph nodes that need to be biopsied and he will be consulting with others in this field to determine the best way to go about this. I expect that this biopsy will be set up within the next few days, probably either in Pineville or Charlotte.
I do appreciate so much your continued prayers for wisdom for the doctors and for me, that I will have peace during this time of waiting, and that I would glorify the Lord in all things.
Love you all, and thanks again for praying and for all the words of encouragement you have shared with me. One dear friend from Kentwood said, “God knows your name!” Indeed he does!
Velta G. Morris

Not so good, but staying positive
It’s been a really long night. I’m very agitated and have anxiety when they come in the room. My mommy and daddy stayed with me until about 12:00 then my daddy stayed the rest of the night. My aunt Mendy came about 6 and then my mommy came back around 7:30. I’m still nauseated. I’m also still mad that no one can hold me. I’m moving out of ICU today. When we get to the other room my mommy will be able to hold me. All of my seizures are coming from my left side still. This is great news. I’m having lots of seizures. Some are due to the trama and others bc I didn’t have any medicine yesterday. I’m back on my Meds so hopefully they will get better. We still do not have any results yet. All we know is that I’m spiking a whole lot on top of the 150-200 seizures we were seeing at home. We have to get these seizures to stop. They said that they are shooting over to my right side which has to be stopped. Please continue to pray. I have to be honest and tell you this is horrible. Yes God is giving us the strength to get through it but it feels like we are in a bad dream. I will leave you with some good news. First they said my swelling looks great. Not too much. Tomorrow will be the peak of the swelling. Next, our neurologist is on call this weekend at home and here in Detroit. Dr. C(neuro here) said not good for me but good for you. Lol. He said he is only on call ever 7 weeks. To me it’s just another sign that God is taking care of me. Love you all.
I will stay strong. I will fight. I will win.
