My name is Brian and I have been transformed by the greatest and worst thing that has ever happened to me. I had, what doctors call, scleritis and it is an inflammation of the white part of my left eye. It was so bad a few years ago that I had a partially detached retina and extreme vision loss. The doctors said at one point, I could have lost my eye but I needed to keep taking a medication that could possibly give me bladder cancer. Lots to think about when you are only 36 years old and I know that God has allowed it for a reason. I am now off all my medication and doing well. I am in the process of writing a book about everything I went through called, “Holy Crap, finding God’s presence in your pain”. I consider life more important and that includes my eternal life. I know that God wants me to live my life for others and not just for myself. I am still learning about myself and Jesus living through me, but I know that I have more knowledge about myself than I would have if I would have not went through this physical issue in my life.

Man! I have totally lost track of you and somehow someway ran across this page. I can’t believe it. I’m in Arkansas planting a church. Was in Southern California until 2003. Please get me caught up on your life. Praying for you! – Lane

All I can say is wow. Was this ever an wake up call for me. I can’t imagine what you and Yolanda have been through with all of this.
You will be in my daily prayers asking God to continue to heal and bless you both!

I’m curious… will follow your progress…. awakenings come in so many different ways…
What a blessing to come across your blog. I can’t go into detail at this time as I’ve been asked not to mention some things on any public or social site but you will be hearing from me in a few weeks. Thank you – that’s all I can say at this time. Bless you!
