Dr is running more tests...suggesting more after that...and possible surgery. A year and a half ago I had villious aedenoma polyps removed from my colon that are precancerous or as she said NOT BENIGN and symptoms of pain returning means could be that or could mean a hysterectomy.

My knees are creaking like Cinderella's stepsister's knees for those who remember the Rogers and Hammerstein musical. They hurt and swell up so badly that I can't stoop without horrible pain and have trouble getting up again. Now I don't stoop a lot, but want to do it easily when I do. 

My weight climbed 3 lbs to 183. If you weigh more, don't get in condemnation. If you weigh less, don't get in judgment. I was 106 fully pregnant (ok 31 years ago, I know) but was skinny most of my life. I take thyroid meds and they increased them and I do NOT eat a lot, but have a desk job in a law firm. 

I need exercise but want to use wisdom especially considering my knees.

I just opened yesterday's mail and have a letter from my doctor. The day before they couldn't find my phone number and wrote to tell me that. Now this one says to return as soon as possible for follow up regarding malaise. I am trying not to be in fear. 

Met a neighbor, Greg. He has had a very hard life.  He has decided that he has a purpose now in God but doesn't know what it is. I see him as a seeker, not a believer in Jesus Christ yet.  He has prayed to God for strength in some of his trials. He felt God told him to talk to me.

He also has a huge growth on his ankle and has not sought medical attention. 

He is a very kind man, I can tell but hurt to the core in life. He brought me an electric heater. I told him I had one for my camper but his was nicer and he said he had 4 and wanted me to try it. He needs a wife after he finds Jesus. :)

without HIM!

It has been said that I am giving and kind...but without Jesus...venom runs in my veins.

It has been said that I can carry a tune and have soothed others with singing...but without Jesus....I sing just another song in a world full of them.

I am a 52 year old grandmother who breathes hard after climbing a flight of stairs and need to shed some of my 183 lbs for health reasons. I sometimes need help opening a jar of pickles but...with HIS power in my life...it has been said that I am dangerous....to satan's agenda. 

I can't do anything right...without HIM. 

Salvation first, healing as bonus! He has a heart condition and was taken to the hospital 

 This is her request to me via email:

  my dad is at JFK..had pulse last Thurs of 35, my mom "called the dr.", got message. Then called amublance. He's still there...failed stress test....was to have catheterization, but dr. never showed yesterday, won't till Thurs. May have to redo a graft...had pacemaker installed last Sat. Pray for his salvation..

She is friend I met about a year ago. Her husband is skilled and refuses to work more than part time. He wants to sell their home and live in a rental. He does not budget anything and she recently lost her job and is looking for another. He has relied heavily on her income as she makes a great living when employed. The job loss had nothing to do with her work ethic or skill. She is a scientist but as the grants run out, she has to look for something else.

 They have adolescent sons with little structure in their lives except what she offers. She speaks of separation. They are both active in church and both saved but she is unable to reason with him. She said they are spending money they do not have and she is sickened, to the point of physical nausea worrying over it. This anxiety is robbing her of joy in her life. Please believe with me for her family.
