same test, 8th verse, a little bit longer, and a whole lot worse!
so for the past few weeks I've been running a fever and having severe pain in the abdomen area again. Last week was spent in the surgeon's office and having my 8th Cat scan in the "adventures of no colon" It's NOT a good thing when you know exactly what the machine says to you during the test..."Breath in, hold it...breath" and how many times it repeats this process. As of today, I haven't heard anything back from my test so I'm taking no news as good news! I would however not oppose any prayers you might want to send to our wonderful Father. I have been a bit worried that my infection has come back and I just don't want to go down that road again. Having a taste of what it feels like to feel good and have a life has really spoiled me and I'm not ready to give that up again!
***warning text ahead is overly sappy***
so on a much happier note, my Sat. and Sun. have been nothing but wonderful. I have fallen completely head over heals for the perfect gentleman and I wouldn't have it any other way. Yesterday he came up to see me and brought me a dozen red roses that were absolutely gorgeous! He got them for me because I hadn't been feeling well and just because(WOW) I don't think any guy has ever done that for me, except my dear old dad. (gotta love Rickey) Then, we went to see Elizabethtown. It was pretty good, not what I was expecting though. After the movie, we went and walked around by the river. It was absolutely perfect weather and the stars were shining bright! A band was playing across the river so we had a little bit of music to serenade us while we strolled along the banks and then on the way back to his truck we ran through the sprinklers in the park! (I love a man who isn't afraid to get wet) That night was very much needed and it was the best medicine for my heart and "no-colon woes". Sunday, the perfect gentleman even went to church with me(major bonus points) I really am trying hard to base this relationship around God and I think we are doing a fair job. The fact that he tells me that he prays for me/us ever night melts my heart. I'm really thinking that I might keep him! Anyways, this weekend was AMAZING!
I still have a hard time understanding why God would bless me with such wonderful family, friends, and a perfect gentleman. I am so very thankful for the life I have and I know I complain about infections and CT scans, but if that's all I have to endure in life's journey than I am one fortunate girl.
Here's hoping your weekend was AMAZING too!
