Monday after Surgery

His eye is on the sparrow & I know He watches, me

ok...so this is a lil wren. But I love birds.

Rich and I had a good evening last night..slept well, had a good day and I am feeling 

so PerKY today. 

I have been emotional , filled with love , not sad or hopeless at all.

I can't tell you how much friends mean to me..how important it is

to feel loved and cared about.

I have been reading alot ..devotionals, miracles, Chicken Soup for the Soul

& books of hope and faith..I even laughed HARD today at a story about a lady's 

pastey nipple falling out and being mistaken for a cookie...LOL

My pastor called and  asked me ..what do YOU want at the end of this journey..

so I know what to pray for you!

I want to be a giving, loving person and a testimony to God's love and power.

I know I can make it with love , support, medical care and spiritual care!!

each of you means so much to me..and the social & spiritual  aspect of cancer is SOOOOOOOOOO

important.

The blessing of peace and comfort in our home is wonderful..If I had

to get cancer for this, tis worth it.  I can't begin to tell you how hard

it has been with Rich's dad here for 2.5 years.  I thank God for this blessing

and for my loving friends and family.

Tonight ..I'll share this.

I wasn't scared ..we were at the hospital

at 6.30 AM and I went to surgery about 1.20 PM..I was with my hubby, oldest

daughter and best friend until 12.30 ..we laughed and talked and I was never 

scared or too nervous..and NO meds to calm me down.

When I woke up..I saw the clock..8PM..I knew I was in recovery..I knew

it was over, and I was SCARED!!!!! All I did was lay with my eyes open

for an hour looking at that clock.   A man next to me was saying the

EFF word to the nurses..UGH..how can someone be so disrespectful to

a person who is there to HELP you???

The minute my bed was rolled into my room, I saw my Rich and was 

peaceful and happy and not scared again.  He stayed that night and took

such good care of me.  I was so thankful he was there. 

I KNOW that all the prayers that were said for me had a HUGE effect on

my surgery . Yesterday , on the way home, I looked in the car sideview mirror and thought..I look rugged, BUT I am GLOWING, it's the love of God I saw .

 I will share more tomorrow..

the journey continues..

fondly,
