An Open Door......

Yesterday I received a phone call from one of the dermatology doctors that I saw in at U of M of Monday.
He was calling me personally to say that he has communicated with the Dr. James Siebold (world renown expert in scleroderma)...and that Dr. Siebold would like to see me and consult with us on my case of scleroderma! WOW.....it's like I had just jumped to the front of the class!!! I immediately told him that we would be more than happy to have that appointment...and would make the trip whenever they scheduled us!

Of course being the computer person I am I googled Dr. Siebold and read his impressive credentials: http://www.med.umich.edu/scleroderma/faculty/index.htm

Dr. Siebold is also on the cutting edge with research regarding the medicine Imatinib and from what I've been told he is one of the leading experts in the world on it's use for systemic scleroderma.

Ken and I consider this a huge "open door" that God has so graciously allowed to seek more information and perhaps a reversal in or a cure for my disease. so....we are cautiously optimistic....and are excited to see what's next!

God is our "Great Physician" and it is within His might and power to heal....yet I believe He provides us gifted and trained medical personnel along the way for our benefit.
