A friend took me to surgery, stayed at the hospital with me and at home until bedtime. Anita took good care of me. She helped me get my post-op meds organized, brought me a bake-at-home pizza for dinner and prepared it for me. A picture of me and Anita is posted above. Ahhh, what luxury. 

I have a lot of good things going on in my life right now - learning a new position at work, recovering from this surgery, dental implant surgery scheduled later this year and traveling to my son's destination wedding in November. 

I would never have scheduled these issues at this time, but I trust that God knows what is best for me. The tooth had been an issue for a long time, but my son's wedding is out of town. I didn't want to have an emergency dental issue at my son's wedding. So I had it extracted in March hoping for completion sooner. I'm still waiting for a go from my oral surgeon. I've also been applying for other positions at Regions this year. I've been in my previous position for over three years and needed a change. Finally got a new position Oct. 4.

I was concerned about taking time off for surgery while in "training" for my new position. I had a WFH position previously, but this one requires that I go to the office. The supervisors have been very supportive. My doc says I should be able to return to work next week.

So far God has provided for all of my needs. I have faith that He will continue to do so.
