mind too full to blog?

Is it possible that I have so much on my mind that I'm unable to blog about any of it? I think so.

Tomorrow is a check-up day for Sterling with Dr. Reddy (neuro-oncologist). Need to save my communication energy and heart strength for my husband and son. It's a challenge - emotionally exhausting - each time we meet with the doctors and talk seizures and meds. Was prompted by the Spirit this morning to be praying for my conversations with Roger as we prepare to share what we're seeing/feeling. Fear can really mess with your relationships. I don't need to seek agreement on exactly how we describe or even view the seizures. I need to be in unity with my husband. Only Christ brings this to us, not any amount of "perfect" communication.
Trusting that our inadequacies to decipher and express what's going on with Sterling will be held by the Father, and He will grant wisdom to Dr. Reddy and the others guiding decisions for Sterling's care.

Praying that God will be honored in how I love my son. Praying that Sterling will learn the truth of God's character. Praying for strength for the journey. Praying - with the faith of a mustard seed at times - for healing. And praying that I have a more patient heart in the waiting.
