My husband Eban has been on Dialysis for 16 years. This is his second go round. In 1992 a few weeks before my senior prom he was diagnosed with Lupus, which attacked his kidneys and as a resulted of the disease he became a dialysis patient in 1993. He was on dialysis when we married in 1995. Three days a week for three and a half hours a machine cleaned the toxins out of his body to keep him alive. We went to The Poconos for a week and toured the East Coast for our honeymoon and had the best time!! We scheduled his dialysis treatments just like we planned our activities. It was part of our life, but never stopped us from living and enjoying each day throughout our 21 years of marriage. He received his first transplant in 1995 on Christmas Eve, a week after our oldest son was born. His first transplant lasted five years.
The Jackson’s 2016
In 2000 he was back on dialysis, a father of three, husband and living an active life. Our boys were four and three years old and our daughter was a newborn. Between working in the family business, restoring Karma Ghia’s, volunteering and coaching youth baseball, basketball or football he was an active “All Star Dad”. This life altering condition never stopped him, never hindered him and he NEVER complained.
————————–We took this Picture on Sunday———————–
We already knew his healing was coming. I believed, plus God had sent a word of confirmation through Prophet Copeland. No matter what our day to day looked like, we had to keep believing. One of my prayers for 2016 had been. “Lord, send his healing this year in Jesus name.” On July 9th after a powerful special prophetic service, Eban received a call for a transplant. No promises were made, not even that the surgery would take place, the coordinator just encouraged us to come in on Sunday morning by 6 am and proceed to be worked up for the transplant. They administered dialysis, took blood tests, EKG, asked tons of questions and gave more test until finally the anesthesiologist came in about 3 pm and told us he was going to be preparing him for surgery. I knew my God did not bring us that far to send us home. I told myself all day, after every procedure……, “Lord, I know you didn’t bring us here to go home!”
Four hours later Eban was a healed man. A new kidney that has given him a new take on life. He now has 12 hours of his week back and we are so THANKFUL to OUR LORD! I know that it was God! I know that His promises are true. This is a PRAISE REPORT to encourage you to hold on to the promises of GOD no matter what your life looks like. The power of prayer is real. So continue to pray and expect God to show up! It’s been three weeks since Eban’s transplant and he is doing great! Be encouraged.
Eventfully your’s,
Jennifer
