More Victory, More Love

Well today I had that catheter taken out of my shoulder and what a relief that is. It's buried under the bandages, so maybe it hasn't fully set in yet that it is really gone. I imagine in a few days I will get to see what it looks like when I unveil it. The doctor had mercy on me and only charged me half-price, so I give thanks for that blessing.

Went tonight to my friend Jason's birthday celebration at Momo's. I heard a great band named Suzanna Choffel. They were quite soulful and sweet vocals that reminded me a bit of Nelly Furtado. The drummer had a hilarious 70s wig on and the keyboard player's dog wandered off and onstage while they were playing. Check them out.

Just started reading my 2nd book by Paul Ferrini this week and he is just amazing! Teaching me moreso that LOVE is what we should all be doing with everyone that we meet and not worrying about what we perceive to be wrong with people and judging them. Read his Mastery Prayer.

Let us all remember how loved and blessed we are to be alive right now.

ps: From his 12 Guidelines:
Experience your equality with every person you meet. If you think or feel that you are "less than" or "more than" another person, understand that fear is present. Take a deep breath and be aware of the fear and the unworthiness behind it. Then bring love and compassion to yourself.

Surgery Went Well

I am at home recovering from surgery. Mom and I went for breakfast after we got out. I was a lil groggy and didn't eat much. I had the tube removed almost 5 months to the day of having it put in. So happy to have it out!!!!!

Great!!!!

Today is the last day of having the feeding tube in!!!! I can't wait to get this thing removed tomorrow morning. Mom will be taking me bright and early at 6AM. Should be back home by 9:30 or so.

Next Wednesday, I will go see Dr Ashworth and have the port-a-cath removed from my shoulder.

Life just continues to get better for me and I am so thankful for this opportunity to have life!

Makes Me Wonder...

Other studies have found that electromagnetic waves from mobile phones may affect people's health. A preventative medicine team led by Prof. Choi Jae-wook of Korea University surveyed 177 brain cancer patients admitted to the hospital in 2005. In 137 or 77.4 percent of the patients the cancer was located near the spot where the patient held their mobile phone.

"People who held their mobile phones to their right ears got cancer on the right side of the brain, and those who used the left ear got cancer on the left side of the brain," said Yoon Song-yi, one of the team's researchers. "It's too early to conclude that the way they used their mobile phones increased their risk of getting cancer. The final results will come by the end of the year."

My cancer was in the left side of my mouth, the same side I always have the cell phone on.

Saturday Update

Lots of things happening this week!

I went golfing yesterday with Will and we played at Hancock and had a great time. It was a perfectly beautiful day too.

The other big news is that I have scheduled the removal of my Gtube for November 13th. My prayer is that I can find a way to pay for the facility. Last time I was fortunate to only have to pay $1,000. Maybe they will give me the same deal again and an angel will help me come up with that amount.

Still more big news is Anne and I joined Lifetime Fitness and we will be working out together and getting fit. The place is just amazing! Check it out, north and south locations.

Gotta get ready for my gig today. Enjoy this lovely weather!

Peace to you!
