Journal entry by Dustin Smith —
Just wanted to take the time and let everyone know......WE HAVE ARRIVED HOME SWEET HOME💚 Sorry we have not updated in awhile. It has been such a grueling up and down process!
The beginning of the fourth week of my treatment, I woke up feeling a big shift. Dustin said, " You look different this morning, you have a glow about you!" A Lyme patient at the clinic, that morning said the same thing! My prayer was, the doctors would be impressed with what they saw in my blood. We sat down three days before coming home, and looked at my blood under the microscope. The first words the nurse said, "The doctor is impressed with your blood." Everything had improved, some more than others. It all came down to if I had a strong enough foundation to go home. Sure enough, they felt my foundation was strong enough to go home and build on. Although, things are improving and will continue to, I still have a long ways to go. It will continue to be a up and down process. I am better than when I went in, not where I would like to be, but grateful for where I am!! I will tell you what I told my doctor, "You will do your part, I will do mine and my God will take care of the rest!" God kicked down every door for me to go to this exact clinic! He knew, they had all the right ingredients to help save my life!! That is the God I serve, He is the WAY MAKER! He makes a way when there seems to be no way!!
We want to say, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, from the bottom of our hearts!!! Thank you, for all your overwhelming love, encouragement, and support, through praying, texting, calling, sending love packages, letters/cards, financial blessings, meals, helping and loving on our kids! You helped carry us through the hardest and darkest valley we have faced along my Lyme journey.
We would ask, please continue stand in agreement with us for COMPLETE healing!!
It is going to continue to take time to heal, but as our Heavenly Father reassured me in Ecclesiastes 3:11, EVERYTHING is BEAUTIFUL in HIS time!
We love and appreciate each and EVERYONE of you!!💚
Let us hold tightly without wavering to the hope we affirm, for God can be trusted to keep his promise. Hebrews 10:23 NLT
What God has promised to do, He will do! He withholds NO good thing (Psalm 84:11) and He always comes through!!
