WOW

Well it has been a while since I have been on. this is what has been going on. I went to the hospital for surgery on June 25. This was a "simple" procedure where the Dr was going to remove a mysterious mass. Well the Dr was confused when she got in there and the mass turned out to be a bone mass on my Sacrum. This was removed and then I was sent to my room. All looked to be going well until my blood pressure dropped. alot. The next thing I was sent to ICU to stabilize??? the blood pressure. After a while ( I do not remember most of this) I was taken back to surgery. At some point during the day a vein burst and I was bleeding out. This could have been trauma to my bladder but the Dr. was confused because this bleed was not near the Mass site, so after the second surgery I was sent back to ICU. I stayed in the hospital for a long 5 days and after I got home I had lots and lots of friends stop by to see me, THANKS. Our God is so Awesome to send so many people to take care of me and Chris. Anyway, things are going well. I go to an orthopedic Dr next week and follow up with some PT. The last month has been kinda long and I can't sit in a hard chair too well. I stay in the recliner most of the day and don't get on the computer for very long. Last night I fell in the hall. I was walking and both legs just stopped working. I am ok but I feel a little stupid. anyway Things are good with the kids. Kristen is working hard in Arkansas and going to class. Craig is out of jail and moved to Alabama with my sister. I am not sure what he is doing in Alabama but he is not here. well I guess I better go now and do some work while I can sit. thank you all for your support and prayers. more later......
