I wanted to rspond to everyone you popsted on my thread. It has been a wild and wooly week and this weekend seems to be headed in the same direction.<P>First let me thank everyone for their prayers. They certainly helped me through the last few days with FIL. He is doing fine except this is a man who is hardly ever sick and had only minor surgeries before. He is taking along time come out of the clutches of the medicine they gave him. He is not very lucid and on top of it all he is a royal pain int eh you know where. Normally he isn't but right now he is!!! A big baby!!! Now I know where H gets it!!!!<P>Jenny, thanks we still have a long way to go but it is a beginning!<P>Jim, my brother, I always look for your post they have helped me so much. I know we have a long way to go and all the pain isn't over yet. BUt we are at last head inthe right direction at the same time. <P>You are still in my prayers. {{{{JIM}}}}<P>tootrusting, I prayed long and hard over this but when I finally said okay God, give me strength to deal with this and the strength to let you take charge. He did and things have been moving ever since. I didn't give up I just gave it to God and tried to stop dwelling on it. I know it is hard but by asking for the strength to do it I was granted that.<P>Hey Twin, Never would have made it this far without you.<P>Teddy bear thanks.<P>Tyra, Thank you I know God will answer your prayers.<P>Bill, my friend, thanks you for your prayers. I worry about you. How are you? You have my address email me if you need to talk.<P>Sheba, I have missed you. You have given me laughter when I was in tears. O gosh I can't remember what you did with the smoke!!!<BR>But your determination whas a guide for me. Thanks. What kind of dance did you do? Was it around a fire?<P>Peggy, Thanks, yes God does answer prayers but on his time not ours.<P>Tim, GOt your attention didn't I? No ice cream not yet personally I rather use whip cream not so cold oh wait you were talking about that use were you? That comes later anyway!!!<P>Getting Better, We still have a long way to go but I think the biggest hurddle has been jumped.<P>Brentb, Yes believe me he went amost 4 months without any contact with anyone. So there is hope.<P>I want ed to tell you all how <B>GREAT</B> you all are. And again tell you I couldn't have gotten this far with out everyone on the board.
