On The Mend

It has been a while since my last blog. In March I got a major infection in my left hand. I spent 12 days in the hospital. The infection was so bad that my hand and forearm was swollen. I was on antibiotics and it did not seem to help. My Doctor had an orthopedic surgeon look at it. Later that day I had surgery. The surgeon irrigated my hand and two days later had it done again. I found out that my hand was so swollen that the antibiotics could not get to the infection. The pain was the worst that I have ever had to bare. I am still in pain but tolerable. I am gaining use of my hand but have no feeling in thumb, index, and middle fingers. I have some feeling in the ring and little fingers. With that said typing is now only one finger instead of two.

Life never lets you know what to prepare for, so I've learned to take things in stride and hope for the best. I've had to learn what limitations I can handle. Physically and at times emotionally this body is a wreck. The only two things that help me through the tough times are my Faith in God, and my Family. The kids are all grown and have families of their own so most of the Family support comes from my dear wife, companion, lover, sweet heart, and best friend. She has had to deal with a lot of grief because of me and doesn't complain, and it goes the other way also.

With this Sunday being Mothers Day I want everyone to know that I love her more each day. We have set a goal to get our spirituality back on track. And since doing so the adversary is not pleased and has tried to intervene. We see this for what it is and keep on going forward in our efforts. We are becoming more United in Mind, Body, and Spirit. So Janet Happy Mothers Day.

With this I would like to wish all mothers a Happy Mothers Day. For motherhood is the most respected thing on this Earth that I can think of. You all deserve the best life has to offer.

So with all this said have a good day.
