Hello friends of Grace! I'm here to tell you a little bit about what's been going on in Grace's life for the past year. Back in October of 2025, Grace had a complete labrum tear which required hip surgery. It was an extensive recovery for Grace, and put a big strain on her body. In May of that year, she started feeling unwell with mysterious symptoms. However, after the surgery, her symptoms have worsened significantly. In the past few months, Grace has been to the Emergency Department several times for chest and abdominal pain with severe gastrointestinal complications. The doctors have not found any answers for her, after imaging and lab work. In the month of September 2026 alone, Grace has lost 35 pounds, and has been eating nothing but occasional plain rice, water, and some diluted electrolyte drinks for necessity. Anything that enters her system, even water, has been causing her to vomit profusely, and she has been suffering from severe pain that keeps her up at night. Other severe and alarming gastrointestinal symptoms have continued to persist with no answers from her medical team. Unable to wait until 2027 to see a gastroenterologist in America, Grace is currently on a flight to Korea for medical treatment there. She will be admitted to the hospital, where they will do more imaging and lab work to hopefully find a diagnosis and begin treatment. Grace's beloved dog, Jaxon, has safely made it to Texas where he will be waiting for her until she returns in January.

With all this, come many expenses! The medical bills have been adding up, and Grace will be paying out-of-pocket for her medical expenses in Korea. I ask that you may consider blessing Grace with a monetary gift. Even more, I ask that you may join me in praying that God would give wisdom to the doctors to have an answer for Grace, that He would give physical healing, and that Grace's heart would continue to be strengthened by the Lord. Praise God that Grace's hope doesn't lie in her circumstances, but here she is proclaiming God's faithfulness, goodness, nearness, and providence even in taxing and uncertain times. Praise God that Jesus is our greatest hope, and our greatest joy!
