Worse than surgery

I made it home last night safe and sound. Did I mention that I got to fly first class? Not as nice as first class on the bigger airlines, or trans-ocean flights, but it was nice to have lots of leg room and be fed a fairly decent meal. (Airplanes? Decent food!?)

Went right to the ER after getting off the flight (my folks picked me up and drove me) and they prescribed some pain meds. I took them last night a couple times and they helped me to sleep a lot better than I have been. Also getting back to the Seattle area helped as well. It's raining here, and some of the allergies I had in the LA area have wrapped up. (I can breathe again)

The pain is really worse than it was after my surgery. Possibly the "shingle" most painful thing I have ever experienced. (haha)

I'll be staying with my folks until Lisa gets back sometime on Tuesday. (Her dad is flying down and they are driving up together) She is spending Easter with her cousins like we had originally planned.

I have to admit that I am pretty frustrated by how this has modified the plans we had made to see friends and family, but there is really nothing I can or could do about it. Same with cancer, there is really nothing I could do about it so I have to take it and see what God has for me. Please continue to pray for my healing and that I will be able to see God's plan in all this. (But hey, I get to see my family for Easter...)

He is RISEN!

    He is RISEN indeed.

    It is good to hear your allergies have subsided since returning home. Ruth and I will continue to pray for your recovery. If there is anything else we can do for you please let us know.

    Justin and Ruth

    i concur, the Lord has RISEN indeed!

    my dad got shingles and it was awfully painful for him, he got it around his waist.

    you have gone through so many things in your young life, be thankful that the Lord has helped you through all this and you have family/friends to help also.

    i thank you sharing your journey in life with all of us.

    have a restful week.
