It has been awhile since my last update. I am just trying to recuperate so that I can get back to school. Based on how my recovery has gone, I think I can safely say that it will be a long time before I retire. I don't know if I will ever complain about being too busy again. The days are long and the nights are even longer. I am still having difficulty sleeping at night which makes me tired during the day so my whole schedule is all messed up. Well, so much for all the complaining. (sorry I just needed to let it out) I went on line to see if there were pictures of the surgery that I had, and there were so if you are interested look up TRAM surgery. It just amazes me what can be done. I also looked up the recovery time and it said 6-8 weeks. I guess I was expecting to be better so much sooner. (As you can see patience is not one of my virtues). One lesson I have learned is to have a different perspective on pain. I was reading Point of Grace's book Steady On and came upon this....'God of heaven, please distract me from my fears and pain and point my eyes toward you. Teach me to see with spiritual eyes the realities of the heavenly realm. Let me rest in your care and protection for me and for those I love.' I couldn't have said it better. Lord, help me to be 'distracted' in you!!!!
