Miracles

We had another miracle here at Zygote. We make computer models of human anatomy among other things. We are all artists here and not doctors. About 3 Years ago we did an MRI scan on a kid we found at a local gym to use to make new models from. A few weeks later as we went through the data we found something strange in his brain. Because we are not doctors we were not sure what it was. We decided we had better consult a doctor. The doctor told us it was a tumor and that the young man needed surgery right away. So we located the young man again and told him what we had found. He had brain surgery to remove it, which saved his life.

Well it happened again this week. We put another ad up at Golds Gym and got another buff healthy kid (19) to come and get scanned for us. This time we found something we could not explain on his femur so we asked him about it and he said it did ache now and again so we convinced him (it wasn't easy) to take some of the printouts we made of it to a doctor. It was bone cancer. The doctor said no one ever catches bone cancer before it is in the marrow and you are going to die. They cut it off his femur and he will be fine. A few months from now he would have had terminal cancer if we didn't catch it.

Then this morning Bryson fell out of his high chair onto his head. He was barely winning and not moving much. We could not get him to stop crying and he just didn't want to move at all so I gave him a blessing and Ginger took him to the doctor. He is perfectly fine now, couldn't find anything wrong with him.

Miracles still do happen. God still loves his children. We have just grown farther from Him as a society.

The Begining....sort of

Well I thought I would start a blog. More for myself then anything else. I have experiences that I would like to write down and keep somewhere. I have tried to keep journals in the past but always feel like I need to put a considerable amount of time into each entry. With a blog I hope to be able to just jot down quick experiences or feelings whenever I have them. So here goes!
