Day 6

I've had an achy head since Saturday.

On and off....mostly on.

And these guys aren't working very well.

 

 

But they look cute on the nightstand!



Thank you Lord...

The Biopsy came back.....it was negative!

Thank you for all your prayers!!

Update & Sad News

My foot surgery (to remove a "soft tissue mass" to quote the doctor) went well ~ now I'm just waiting for the pathology report - necessary because the "mass" changed suddenly. 

I should receive that report next Monday. 

However, it doesn't really seem to matter right now.

The same day (1/11) that I was having the surgery my good friend and co-worker lost her husband.  Joan's husband Tom had a heart attack.  Gone...in an instant.  Their lives changed...in an instant. 

Psalm 23

The LORD is my shepherd;

I shall not want.

He makes me to lie down in green pastures;

He leads me beside the still waters.

He restores my soul;

He leads me in the paths of righteousness

For His name’s sake.

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,

I will fear no evil;

For You are with me;

Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.

You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies;

You anoint my head with oil;

My cup runs over.

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me

All the days of my life;

And I will dwell in the house of the LORD

Forever.    

Outpatient

I'm going to be having a bit of surgery today...nothing real serious. It will require general anesthesia though and some pain pills afterwards.  That kind of stuff makes me pretty goofy so I think I may be off-line for a couple days.  I'd appreciate your prayers for a good outcome!  Thanks a bunch!!

There is definitely something to be said for progress.
