therapy

Well, it’s back to doing my therapy to scripture, folks and I am loving it!
I have one that I am starting out doing that is my very favorite one. I use a long roll that I place my arms on top of, and as I sit in a chair, I extend my arms up the roll as far as I can, and then back again. As I do this, I bow my head and sing “Majesty; worship His majesty, unto Jesus be all honor and glory and praise. Majesty, Kingdom authority; Jesus who died, now glorified; King of all Kings.” I do this for five minutes and it is too short of a time for me. I love this time singing to my Lord, because I am giving Him praise and thanks for all He has done for me, and no-one bothers me, or makes me stop!(I let it go for six minutes today though, and didn’t tell Jim!)
Isn’t this cool of God to give me a place where I can do my therapy to scripture again?
I just love this God of mine, if you haven’t figured that out by now!

FEB 25th

I had the most delightful birthday on Saturday.
Cathy and I drove to Applebee’s where we indulged in pancakes for the cause of supporting Regina’s grandson’s bone cancer benefit. I got home just in time to see my daughter Kelly roll in the drive way with my precious little Emery. They managed to stay through lunch and then headed back to Aiken. She had to show Grand Mommy her bright pink cast that she was sporting on her right arm, so we compared slings and casts!
That afternoon, I played Canasta with Bev and Irene and Cathy until about eight, and then came home to open lots of cards and gifts.People have just blessed me so much, and now with me getting Medicare, my hospital surgery was taken care of, and that was a huge blessing!....Woo Hoo!
I start therapy in town tomorrow, so this was a super birthday folks!
You don’t turn thirty nine every day...... and still get Medicare and look this fantabulous at the same time!...... Hahahahaha!

THIS IS MY FATHER'S WORLD

When I was growing up, I had three older brothers and a sister who was 13 years older than I was, so when it came to doing things with my Daddy, I was use to behaving like a boy and doing boy activities. Daddy took me everywhere with him on his building jobs and taught me how to pour concrete and what a builder’s walk should measure out to look like. I’ve never forgotten these things either.As I grew older and began to draw and write with more frequency, he shared with me the art of outlining and shading my pictures. Most of my natural talent for drawing comes from my Father.
Kelly grew up with two older brothers, always joining them, in T-Ball, and soccer. She did try T-Ball and church league Basketball for a while, and even with her Daddy as coach of her T-Ball team, she knew that sports was not her ball game. David started at an early age to teach Kelly the importance of Father- Daughter relationship’s by introducing her into the YMCA-s program of Indian Guide’s, by way of the Father Daughter Campout program! Well, ole “Roaring River”( David) and “Sparkling Water”( Kelly) spent many a weekend with other fathers and daughters teaching the importance of getting to know one another. She has never forgotten it either! As she grew into her teen years, he took the time to show her how to change the oil in her car, and how to care for her self, if need be. He taught her so many wonderful lessons, that only a Daddy can teach a daughter!
Actually, lessons that only a Heavenly Father can teach all His children, if we will just listen~~~~
Because, this is my Father's world!

AMAZING GOD

My God simply amazes me! When I had my second shoulder surgery on February 7th, I knew He would watch out after me, especially since my David wasn’t here to remind me when to ice down, or take my meds, but our God is such a faithful God, that I needn’t have worried....and I didn’t!
He brought my two pastors to pray for me the morning of my surgery; He provided Tom Ertter, one of my Deacons, to help with getting things straight with the hospital admission records, ahead of time, and He provided me with one of my Mom’s who flew in from California to help take care of me in the aftercare time! He has provided so many wonderful friends; neighbors, and ABF friends to bring meals, and even allowed Maybelle to come and fold clothes and towels for me this week, because a one handed Mama doesn’t do it very well! He even furnished my first two weeks of therapy out here at the house, so I wouldn’t have to drive in.....
Yes, my God is an amazing God, isn’t He? He chose to do this for me, and give me not one single, solitary day of pain, either, so, I’d say, He is an astoundingly and amazingly awesome God!

DOCTORS

I have three doctors in Beaufort for which I have given the following great descriptions!

Dr. Kevin Jones, whom I call Kevin, is who I tag “He hangs the moon.” He is very thorough and will operate wearing something like a space suit. He is one of the best hip replacement doctors in Beaufort. He is all for keeping bacteria and infection down to nothing, and he is my favorite doctor in Beaufort.

My general PG is Dr. Vinnie Rhodes, but I haven’t gotten to where I can call him Vinnie yet. He is so cute, I am going to put him in my suitcase and take him home with me. He doesn’t want anything to happen to me on his watch. he smiles and is pleasant and keeps abreast of what’s best for me, and that’s good.~~~~~ He is Dr. Sweetheart.

Now, Dr. Wonderful, is Dr. Mark Dean. I figure that any doctor that can perform two surgeries on my shoulders and give me NO pain, has to be Dr. Wonderful. (I think Dr. Sweetheart is jealous though)hahaha! Dr. Dean, as I have said operated on Olympic Skier, Peekaboo Street, and as Roger Basik said with “Music Through The Night/ Weekends, "she did her recovery at Peekaboo ICU"!!!(Corny, I know!)
Mark is nice looking and very professional and thorough with what he does. His first thought is that I do NOT reinjure my shoulder doing something stupid.
None of the folks at the Sports Care Center can believe that I do NOT like pain, because of how well I am doing, but you know, as well as I, that with God, all things are possible. He is the One who has gotten me this far and will take me the rest of the way!
I love the fact that I have this new shoulder joint on both shoulders now, but just think, when you become a follower of Christ, you are a brand new Creature in Christ.
The old has gone; the new has come, and even better than that, is One day, soon, we will all get brand new bodies in Heaven!~~~~Woo Hoo~

SURGERY

Journey Friends,
This has been my weekend with "Mom's Who Lost Children" over at Edisto, and as always it is a weekend that is dear to my heart. I love these weekends so very much and truly do believe that this is what God has intended for me to do with my life for as long as He has me on this earth.
I will be returning to Beaufort and beginning my surgery on Tuesday, and as I said before, I will be unable to use the computer for s good while, or atleast until Dr.Dean gives me permission. Please pray that I am peace with this too. I have learned the art of being content with "ALL" things, as Paul said, and this means, even being unable to use the computer or write or drive for awhile!
I will be back on when I can, so until then, stay close to the Lord dear friends!
Vaya con Dios!
