As I sit here in pain, swallowing hard, coughing and feeling
the swelling that grips my neck. I feel GREAT! All the wonderful wishes that
came from all of you who sent them made me realize that the pain doesn't matter
for long, but your friendship does.
I was lucky that I did the operation when I did, I was told
originally that the blockage of my carotid artery was 90%, but it was 99%! I
was ready to die and didn't know it. The blockage was as the surgeon said:
"Like a hard ball of mass!" Again, I was lucky.
God works in ways I don't understand, but makes me a
believer, twice I have had close calls in my life, then he added another, this
time I realize that there are things I still have left to do, not for me but
for others. He reminded me of that by the outpouring and love you sent me, I am
truly honored, shocked and yet proud.
I could say Thank You to my family and those of you who gave
me your encouragement and prayers, instead I say: I love you all. For you
innate kindness, devotion to God and sense of family I get from all of you.
Thank you!
