This is a week that was very pokey and not one of my best! I struggled this week with pain and other issues resulting from the lithotripsy I had last week.
So I will try to think of the God gifts I did receive this week!
Sunday was lovely! Church was amazing! I love our church! We have been members for a couple of years, and I probably only really know about a third of the many congregants, but every one I do know could not be sweeter. I have gotten so many well wishes by cards, on Facebook, personal prayers, Even hugs! Thank you Lord, for placing us here at this time of our lives and work in us to be as loving of others as well!
Monday was probably our last sunny day of our week. Best I can remember, that is, but I do remember how very glorious the daffodils were.. they truly blessed the day! God is so good!
Tuesday was a great day because our daughter and grands called and we set up a wonderful time to get together in April! That was a fabulous blessing!
Wednesday I spent time just resting and communing with God in prayer that all would go well on Thursday! Time spent with God is golden!
Thursday dawned with sun brilliantly shining. I was so looking forward to going to the dr, and finally getting these hateful stents out. But once there I was told instead I must go get x- rays to prove the large stone was truly out of my body. Oh, how I wish that could have been done yesterday, so that my previously appointed procedure for today could take place. Now, since it is near the weekend, I will probably have to wait til next week to have these stents removed which are quite painful. Again, I have dealt with these stents for two weeks and was told I’d be getting them out today! However, I did receive a precious phone call from a dear friend in our connect group to check on me. We had a wonderful conversation, and our friendship grew in new areas of solicitude.
So Thursday has come to an end and no word yet about my new follow up appointment. So I wait as patiently as I can.
I hope you feel better soon. My cousin had to have that procedure too. Nice that you can see your family in April.
ReplyDeleteI had to google what that procedure is! I have never had kidney stones but i've heard they're horribly painful. I'm still dealing with the cervicogenic headaches and neck pain but have an appt with a neurologist my NP recommended and this time i don't have to wait 5 months to be seen!! (it's coming up the first week of April...i can't wait and i'm praying fervently for some specific answers and non toxic treatments).
ReplyDeleteI will add you to my prayer journal.
I love all of your blessings and that you sound so upbeat despite your pain.
I'm sorry that your healing process is taking longer than expected. I hope you can soon get the stents removed and start feeling better.
ReplyDeleteI do hope you have survived the weekend with the pain continuing (or hopefully abating). May the stents be removed soon!
ReplyDeleteHow fun to plan that trip in April!
Have a good week ahead!
I'm sorry you've had pain last week. I hope this week is much better and those stents are now out. Plans to look forward to are a great mood lifter. April will be here before you know it.
