Some days are better than others

And today was one of the better days!  God's hand was obvious to me in several ways this day.
First, Austin got elbowed in the ear about a month ago and it was bothering him.  The doctor looked at it and said it would be fine. Then recently he started complaining about it again, I was just going to put it off thinking it would get better like the doctor had said.  But this morning I had a feeling that I should take him in and got the idea to take him to the clinic.  I knew it was that burst of "pure intelligence" that Joseph Smith said is the spirit of revelation. At the same time I felt I should buy dinner and visit Lily Koroitamudu at the hotel (which is near the clinic).
Austin had an ear infection and we had a great visit with Lily. 
In the meantime in another place in time, Kevin saw the neurosurgeon again.  He had another MRI and a CTscan which the Dr said shows that the lessions have gotten better.  He said that he was 98% sure it was not brain cancer or a tumor or lymphoma.  He said the only thing it could be is MS but that MS doesn't behave that way either, that they get worse and that other symptoms start to appear.  And neither of those things are happening with Kevin.
Obviously MS is not good news but the dr said it was 75% possible that it was MS in his opinion. Kevin feels as if a death sentence was lifted off his shoulders. He will be having a spinal tap soon to get a clearer diagnosis.
I know God is at work in this and I just keep praying His will be done.
