Update from Pastor Sammy in Ghana

I just received this update from Dr. Paul in Ghana with regards to Pastor Sammy's health.

Hello Dr, Roy,
Forgive me for the delay in informing you about my dad's progress. i was a little busy with my project work i the rural districts.
 

He came to the hospital yesterday for his review. Fortunately the MRI did not pick up any lesions or tumours and all other biochemical investigations were normal. The only problem was with the cervical spine X-ray that indicated arthritis of the spine. Cervical spondylosis as it is called occurs mostly in the elderly and is capable of producing stroke-like symptoms and dizziness due to the unstable spine compromising the blood supply to the brain. It can also cause this by direct pressure on the spinal cord.

He is going put on a cervical collar to stabilize the neck for some time and also some drugs for the dizziness. With respect to walking, the gait is still a bit unsteady. But its the best i have seen in weeks since he could walk without any support at all.
 

Apart from that, his only complains are abdominal pain for which he is being given ulcer drugs. His blood pressure was also found to be high and so e has been given some anti-hypertensives. we are praying that this is transient as a result of the stress.
 

His next review is in a month's time and he is also scheduled for an endoscopy in 3 weeks time. I will see you in Ghana next week. Have a safe trip and enjoy your flight until then;
Sincerely   
Paul
Thank God for His marvelous provision!
