You got that right Bert..it has been one thing after another but I have strong support and my faith will get me through.

This cancer thing was a new ball game and totally unexpected. We discovered it by accident. I did not have symptoms. I saw the doc for another issue and he ordered a cat scan and there it was. A 4.5 cm tumor that was malignant so we took it out Wednesday. I was discharged yesterday afternoon

The surgeon is confident we got it all. I feel good especially since I am still recovering from spine surgery . Getting it earley was key to a complete recovery

Seems like it truly is one thing after another. The hospital just called and told us that we tested positive for Covid. Our oldest daughter and granddaughter also tested positive. Thank goodness they are both asymptomatic. They said that since I had a runny nose and sneezing, that I had a cold on top of it. As Charlie Brown would say, Good Grief.

Really be careful Ben. Stay warm, take everything you doc suggests.

They just said to quarantine for 10 days, take tylenol for symptoms, get plenty of rest and stay hydrated, since pneumonia is an issue. If breathing becomes difficult, to get into the emergency room. I have an O2 monitor and my wife and I are both at 97-98, so I think we'll be ok. We'll just take it one day at a time.

After the original scare in the Spring about ibuprofen, didn't they finally come out and say that it did not make Covid worse?
Not saying you should take it, but since your doctor said to take Tylenol, it just reminded me of that.

Wow, Ben. Prayers for you, your wife and family for sure. This has been one strange year for all of us. God will see us through the rough waters, that is His promise.

I have a special song for you Ben. This is another group I knew from childhood. Their grandfather married my parents in 1941 and their father was one of the greats of Gospel music and is in the Gospel Music Hall of Fame. Listen to the Ole Red Head tenor. He can get up there.

Amen, Ben. You have won the battle before the war. God will honor your love for Him and all is well. God is good and we expect a complete success for your surgery.

I had a little bump in the road this week and had some major surgery on Wednesday. A few weeks ago I was diagnosed with cancer in my left kidney and had it removed Wednesday afternoon about 3:00 PM. After surgery I was taken to ICU to recover and I was discharged at 12:30 yesterday afternoon. Now I am back at home testifying to God's grace and healing power. The kidney was sent to the lab for further testing.

So the journey down the road of life has pot holes and we just have to ask God to be with us and navigate through them. I am really sore today in my abdomen because they went through the front to remove the kidney. The incisions are small but sore just the same. I am confident when I follow up with the surgeon to go over the pathology report I will be cancer free. God is good Ben, all of the time

You're in my thoughts and prayers. Here's hoping for a positive outcome.

Best of luck. My sister tested positive and her quarantine ended yesterday with her feeling well. She's an RN at Vanderbilt.

Good Saturday Morning D League

I woke up this morning to a spectacular moon and pleasant temperatures. We have 55º at present and we should get up to 82º by mid afternoon. A cold front is predicted for tomorrow that will bring the temperatures down a little more. Still not sweater or jacket weather but getting close.

Today will be a light rehab day for me as I work to get this wound in my abdomen area healed up. I will do a little walking but can't get in the pool. I trust all are well and my prayers are with those who need a touch from above. Prayers will be heard. The moon phase is: Full Moon

Bright sunny morning in my neck of the woods. High to be around 50, but should feel better than that with the sun shining. Been working on a project so I've got a stack of old wood in the yard that I need to move so I'll be doing that later. Little ones doing trick or treat this afternoon. Living on the edge of a small town we normally don't get many....some years none.

Glad they started this middle of the day trick or treating after I was grown. Not a kid, and I don't like it. Give me the dark, at night, roaming the neighborhood trick or treating. Use to have a ball (with no Halloween pranks, soaping windows, etc. Just fun with the neighborhood kids)

Typical late October morning here. Was 33 degrees with frost when I got up. Going to mow the yard today, this cool weather has got the fescue out of dormancy and really growing, but it won’t last much longer. Yard is covered with leaves also, and it’s looking ratty around here. Hope to catch at least the second half of the game. Y’all have a good day.

I share that sentiment. 9 AM can be rough.

We voted yesterday too. Same reasons. Didn't take long.
