Hello. Yes its me. Hopefully I can post something coherent enough for you to understand. First of all, I had back surgery on November 11th. I am still VERY much in recovery. The pain is minimal thank God, but the the side effects of the anesthesia, the pain meds which were wrongly prescribed, the mistakes that were made in the hospital and after they sent me home (way too early) have just done me in. This is one of the first days I have felt real hope for recovery and sanity again. It has been rough my friends. Thank you so much to those who have prayed for me, been there to help me, and comforted me. I cant give high enough praise to Greg who has been an angel sent from God and has been through this horrible time for me every step of the way. A special thanks also to my sister Jean who has called and listened to me sob and complain and try to make meaning of life again. And another special thanks to my friends Keith Payne and Karen Payne, without whom recovery to this point simply would not be possible. I have had two return trips to the hospital since surgery but I think I am finally starting to come out of the woods. Greg managed to fall and hit his head right where his old tumor is and get a small concussion last week - I dont quite know how we got through that one - another special thank you to Pam Pamela Bright for transporting him to the ER after a 24-hour work shift. It seems like one thing after another keeps preventing life from getting back to normal and today my horse Sheila foundered and poor Greg is having to learn horse care on top of everything else while once again Karen Payne comes to the rescue to help us with this latest trauma. I have had a very hard time staying positive - not my usual protocol. This truly has been one of the worst experiences of my life. I still need your prayers - very, very much. Greg needs them as well and now so does Sheila.Yesterday was the first time I looked at my email in over a month and I have missed many birthdays, holidays, and other such things for which I am sorry. I still trust in God and I know that God is with me but to be honest there have been many days I have felt a forsakenness that I cant even explain in words. I am very emotional and have trouble sleeping and eating and I am incredibly weak. I am not myself and I am now awarer enough to know that and try not to beat myself up over it. The good news is that my back does seem to be healing correctly according to the x-rays, slowly but correctly. The other good news is that my daughter Heidi Yang is coming later this week for a week or so over Christmas. I know that will help immensely. Enough for now - please continue to pray for me. I cant talk on the phone much - I am just too tired most of the time and too emotional but I will feel the love from your prayers.
