Post-Surgery

Whew!!!! I think we're on the road to recovery finally. His experience in CCU after surgery was very terrifying. It's all we could talk about for a week. Still feeling weak, dizzy, short-breath, and tummy turning, we decided this just can't be right. Finally had the drs. address it and they pinned it down to the meds. Cut the dosage in half and already he is feeling better. We've been telling them for months about these feelings but until he had the ablation, it was unthinkable to shrink the dose.

Our support of family and friends has been overwhelming. I don't know and never want to know how people get thru tough times without the prayers and support of love ones. Prayers are more than just hoping for good luck. It's knowing that whatever the outcome, my God is with me in it. And He will never leave me or forsake me. I felt the presence of my Lord in a special way, this week. The same way He's been with me many other times in my life. He's with me at all times, but I don't always feel it. I had a perfect example of a Heavenly Father with my Earthly Father. My dad is 300 miles away, but I know he loves me and wants the best for me. I've always known that. It's the same with my mother, but I'm talking about the Father Figure. My dad, I'm sure, has been disappointed in my actions, but he never abandoned me or quit loving me. With that in my life, it was easy to accept a Heavenly Father that told me He would never leave me or forsake me.

OK, I'm stepping off the soapbox. I will close with this: Thank you, Lord for carrying me thru this time.
