Not sure if you have been receiving David's updates.  Judy flew out of Haiti with Cindy and Amanda  Wed April 3rd. after she noticed that she was not seeing well out of her right eye.  It seemed to have a veil over it.  Arrived back in Owensboro on Thursday afternoon.  Had an appointment with Dr. Maddox  who said she definitely had a detached retina.(40% detached) . He scheduled her for Dr. Millsap for Friday morning.  Dr. Millsap was able to do the surgery at 11:30 am on Friday morning. His treatment was a gas bubble into the eye, a buckle around the eye and then because of where she lives decided to go ahead and take care of the cataract at the same time. Normally they would make two surgeries out of this. The gas bubble makes the cataract grow much faster.   She will not be released to go back to Haiti for at least a month.  Continue to pray for His healing. She has been told to just "sit" for the next week.  Anyone that knows her knows how hard this is for her.
