we have no assurance of tomorrow

while I was in the hospital one day a nurse came running into my room.  "are you okay, are you okay" she was yelling.  I was of course, but she said that the monitors by her desk showed my heart had stopped beating for a time so she came in to check me.

 

as easy as that was I could have been gone today.  and this would be the end of my blogs.

 

there is no guarantee that tomorrow may come so we all need to be ready to meet God our maker.  If you don't know Him or don't have a right relationship with Him don't kid yourself.  Like me you could have been gone in a split second with no forewarning about it.

after you read the information, act upon it and let me know.  If you have questions, I'll try to answer them, or find someone who can.  I'd love to hear that you've gotten right with God.

Wonderful day

Saturday - I'm off of coumadin till Tues. They ran blood tests Sat at dialysis and told me to stop taking them till they check the next blood test. Who knows?

Sunday - Good day. I went to church to worship God and to encourage others, but ended up being blessed and encourage myself.

Went to church today. It was great to be there. I was so happy to sing praises to Him. The message from Pastor Brown about Jesus watching over us was great. I am so privileged to live in these times and in this place.

After church I went to see my younger sister where she treated me to one of the best slices of apple pie I ever had barring my daughters and my wifes'.

And what a wonderful sunshine.

Thank you Lord for your grace

I'm Out!

Got out before 6 pm and boy am I glad! Took a longggggg shower. My hand and arm looks like a pin cushion but doing okay.

If you ever are in trouble health wise, St. Joe's is the place to be. They'll take care of you.

Had a psychiatric exam and guess what, I'm sane! I'll be on coumadin (blood thinner) for 6 to 12 months and then they'll check me again. If I have a reocurrence of clots, then I'll be on them the rest of my life. Phew! Well, no trip to North Carolina for a while. Sorry boys down South. I was so looking forward to seeing my kids, and grand kids.

While in the hospital I was thinking about the preciousness of life and how I missed you all.

Looking forward to seeing everyone soon.

Love, Dan

I Feel LIke Such a Baby - Friday 3/28/08

I'm on blood thinners. I'm going to have to learn all over again how to walk, crawl, stand & itch.

 

A lot of doctors and nurses coming in and out. I watched a video, had some training.

 

Still having a little bit of trouble breathing.

 

If you have to go to the hospital, this is the place to be. Everything is first class here.

 

Thanks for your prayer and concern.

 

Love, Dan

Dear Friends,

Thaks for your prayers,

I've had some "issues" these last few weeks and am not quite well yet.

Some time when I'm feelikng better I'll try to explain it to you.

Good dialysis today.

Love, Dan

back on the coaster..

Felt good early am, but bad rest of day. I've learned through all this is that the Lord is trying to teach me to be content in all things. I'm glad the Lord doesn't give up! And don't you give up on praying for one another. We ALL need your prayers and encouragement. I'm going to spend my dialysis time Tuesday praying for one another.

Love, Dan
