I went back to Dr. Mezzanotte yesterday for a check-up. Everything went fine. He said the x-rays looked good and the progress did, too. He hasn’t talked about joint replacement in the last few visits. Told me I am in maintenance mode and perhaps he will go in a year or two into my elbow to clean things out. We’ve made progress beyond what we expected and therapy is still making progress. It was a good visit.
As he finished, he told me again that my elbow was pretty messed up. He doesn’t see them like that too often. And, ironically, he has a patient right now who has TWO elbows as messed up as my left was. Understanding HIPPA laws, I asked if he could get permission for me to go see the guy. He’s having a hard time dealing with this. Honestly, I never expected to hear back. But I did!!
Today when I do my hospital visits, I’ll get to go see this man. And I don’t know what God has in store for this, but maybe this is God making something good come out of something really bad that happened to me over five months ago …

HE does work in mysterious ways, doesn’t HE?
