Well, I have survived my 2nd, well 3rd actually if you count the head scan they did on my at Overlake, CT scan. One thing they had to do that I was not expecting was they had to put in an IV line because it's too dangerous to put the xray dye stuff through the line I had installed. (It could blow out the line and then the xray dye would be right by my heart and that would cause me to die.) This had to be the most painful IV I've ever had installed. The first one didn't work so they had to try again. Thankfully they got it on the 2nd try and didn't have to try a 3rd time.
The scan went fine however and now I am at home waiting until tomorrow morning. I'm pretty calm at the moment, but getting stuck with needles has that effect on me. (After the needle-sticking is all done, not before or during mind you) We'll see how everything plays out tomorrow. Thank you so much for your prayers, I know I'll need them tomorrow as I face Dr. Gingsberg.
Thank you as well for all those who have written me emails with thoughts and bible passages. They are always great to get. Thanks again for your prayers.

Find Me A Place
ReplyDeleteFind me a place on the earth
Where a weary man can rest
and listen for your voice
in the turning seasons
A quiet place in the world
Where I can bow
And confess that I fear
Where you have brought me,
Mysterious God
All of my life
You have been with me
My comfort in loneliness
My hope in the dark
All of my life
Lord, please stay with me
By my sustaining breath
Guardian of my heart
My days are passing by
ALike falling stars
That blaze across the night sky
Then they are gone
But Father, at your side
I will never be afraid
For you have held all my days
In the plam of your hand
All of my life
You have been with me
My comfort in loneliness
My hope in the dark
All of my life
Lord, please stay with me
Be my sustaining breath
Guardian of my heart
Be my sustaining breath
Guardian of my heart
Be my sustaining breath
Be my sustaining breath
Be my sustaining breath
This is one of my favorite songs.
I love the line "And confess that I fear Where you have brought me,
Mysterious God." I think of you everytime I hear that. Know that Mom and I are praying for you non stop.
We love you.
Dad
