Satisfied Customer
Well, one of our favorite patients, Sebastian came in to clinic today, a crippled over, mostly deaf guy who came in looking for some relief of his back and hip pain several months back. Each time he says he is getting better and better. Well, today he told us that he has been working his field all by himself, which is something he hasn't done in years. He said he wasn't able to even put his own shoes on or pick up his walking stick by himself until the last month or so. So today he threw his stick on the ground and bent over and picked it up to show us how well he is doing. Although he is still very limited in his movements, he is obviously having dramatic improvements that I can't completely attribute to his naproxen tablets. He is alway praising God for his faithfulness, and we can see how God has helped him be functional again. What a blessing for him and for us to get to witness it.
