Hey y'all!

Went to my surgeon today for yet another follow-up from surgery in April...thought I was doing 'o.k.' - but apparently not.  The incision from the surgery has not completely closed (I actually asked the surgeon's associate about this each time I visited...he told me not to worry)...well, the surgeon saw it today and told me point blank that the incision should have healed long before now.  He told me there was either a stitch that is still inside the wound, or that I have an infection (which he really doesn't believe to be the problem).  Nevertheless, I have to undergo a surgical procedure tomorrow afternoon to have the wound cleaned out and cultured.  Depending on the outcome, I will either come home with a drain (what!?) or the wound will be re-sutured - I'm home for at least a week!

Pray for me...I HATE PAIN...I HATE PAIN...I HATE PAIN!!!

Oh...and one more thing...here is a pic of me with my "new" old BF (a/k/a my sons' dad) who hopes to 'reconnect' after all these years!  We took this last weekend...he sure is trying his best/damndest to come back home!

I choose to love myself, live life to the fullest, and encourage others to liberate themselves!

Hey Donna.  I still say you two look great together.  When will you two be seeing each other again?  I love a good love story...

Now is this surgery related to your foot surgery a few months ago?  Hopefully all goes well!

Hey Michelle...he probably won't be back here before Labor Day...We were actually planning for me to go to NC for a weekend, but since I now have to have surgery...that isn't looking good.

Oh well...

And yes, this surgery is related to the ankle surgery...the incision has not healed/closed...they are ruling out an infection inside the ankle or that there are sutures remaining inside, which is causing the incision to not heal properly.

Thanks a bunch - I'll keep in touch with you.

Will be praying for you my dear - speedy recovery & no pain in JESUS name!  HIS strength is renewed DAILY!!! 

Do you know this song???
His strength is perfect when our strength is gone.
He carries us when we can't carry on
Raised in HIS power, the weak become strong
His strength is perfect, His strength is PERFECT!!!


I can do all things
thru Him who gives me strength
tho at times I wonder what He can do thru me
No great success to show
No glory of my own
But in my weakness, HE is there to see me thru...


And praying for your matters of the heart!    Keep us posted!
"I would rather be what God chose to make me than the most glorious creature that I could think of; for to have been thought about, born in God's thought, and then made by God, is the dearest, grandest and most precious thing in all thinking."  by George MacDonald
