Grateful in the New Year

First, I'm grateful for 2011 since 2010 was a bit rough. But, second, and more important I'm thankful for several events in 2010 that were divine or answers to prayer. A lot in life could be attributed to happenstance, but a few things are so beyond our control that they are surely Divine. I never want to forget the four following answers to prayer which happened during Libby's struggle with tuburculosis.

1. Just before boarding the plane back to the USA, a long-time friend with a relatively new job offered to help us. Her job? She works with doctors that jointly see patients with possible infectious diseases in their limbs! Exactly the experts we needed to see since Libby's infection was in her left leg. And appointments that usually takes weeks to get were made within 48 hours.
2. The surgeon in USA called in his buddy -- a cancer specialist -- to help with the surgery. Due to their combined skills, they didn't have to extend Libby's incision from previous surgery and took a successful biopsy.
3. During each surgery and then, after the TB meds started, Libby had to stop breastfeeding. But Asha never missed a beat and the transition to a bottle was seamless.
4. Libby never had a reaction or any sideaffects to the massive amounts of medicines (first, via IV for a suspected tropical disease and, later, for TB).

I'm grateful beyond words.
