September 9

Well, am I ever happy to be home and feeling on top of the world today.  Yesterday morning, very early, I had a difficult time on dialysis.  I started having the worst chest pain that I have ever experienced and it wouldn’t let up.  Tom was working quickly to get me off the machine,  when kinda out of the blue I had a 15-20 second seizure.  That was enough for Tom, he took me right out to the car and off to the ER we went.  Fortunately, we know everybody in the ER, so it kinda just turned into a little visit, after the crisis passed.  A little Aspirin,  a little Nitro and I was on the road again!  I cannot tell you how excited I was to only have 2 hours in the ER, then home again!  Thank the good Lord for His touch to me!

As we continue plowing through this time in our lives, I have to say Thank-you for all the response to my request for prayer in our parenting of Braedon.  I have gotten the books that have been suggested and we are planning to go to the Parenting Conference at our church in October,  8,9&10.  I was really hoping that my transplant would not interfere with that conference and it looks like that won’t happen until the 15th or so.   I am sure God is looking down and seeing our need for this right now, and just is working it all out!

Well, I have a house to clean!  I am behind again, believe it or not.  With all my free time, I am behind!  I plan to get it all done today though! Oh, for the smell of a nice clean house!  I love it!   Have a great weekend.  It was nice to have a short week this week wasn’t it?  Oh, yeah!  I just reminded myself  about last weekend.  Great time with friends, great time with family, can’t beat that.
