>> David's Update.
>>
>> Nearly two weeks ago I was rushed into hospital by emergency ambulance.
>>
>> The reason being, was because I was in great agony in the lower abdomen
> area and was not passing water.
>>
>> After having a catheter in placed I passed 1600 mils of water. Now that's
> some volume!
>>
>> It turned out that I was suffering with an infection which had also
> affected my prostate & scrotum. You can only imagine the pain I was in.
>>
>> After a short stay in hospital, I was discharged - only to be admitted
> once again 36 hours later.
>>
>> Once again I was not passing water and so after extensive examinations
> etc., it was diagnosed that due to my enlarged bladder, the bladder muscle
> had decided to no longer work.
>>
>> This now means that for every day of my life, I now have to use an
> intermittent self catheter.
>>
>> After some training, the doctors & nurses were baffled by how quickly I
> adapted to this new procedure in my life. In part I think that they were
> totally baffled because of my blindness.
>>
>> Because I am a kidney & pancreas transplant recipient I have to be so
> careful of infections, I am so pleased that the infection has not affected
> my transplants.
>>
>> You may be asking well what has caused all these things? - Blindness,
> kidney & pancreas transplants and now his bladder giving up!
>>
>> Since the age of 4, I suffered with diabetes and so consequently this is
> the underlining factor.
>>
>> Amazingly though, due to my pancreas transplant of fifteen years, I am no
> longer treated for diabetes, no longer have insulin and no longer have a
> low
> fat and low carbohydrate diet.
>>
>> Yet even though this body may fail me at times, I am confident of this
> very thing - I know and trust in someone who never fails. His mercies are
> new every morning, great is His faithfulness.
>>
>> Obviously, I'm still weak from my recent ordeal and would still value
>> your
> prayers.
>>
>> In the meantime, may God continue to bless and encourage you and in turn
> may you continue to be a blessing and encouragement to others.
>>
>> Remember, every day is a newday.
>>
>> Big blessings,
>>
>> With Christian love from my wife Rachel.
