2015

I am blessed to start the new year with close to perfect health other than my bum leg.  Pulse, temperature, blood pressure, oxygen level, and blood work all looked good during my stay (except for one anomaly where my potassium level was low - rectified with a couple of horse pills...and a brief stint of constipation due to the hydrocodone).  Other than that, all I got was a bunch of bags of IV antibiotics for the first week and a daily shot to avoid clotting in my legs, a morning stool softener pill, and 24 hour TLC.  My nurses were all surprised that a man of my age wasn't already on some form of medication due to a pre existing condition.  At the time, I was the only patient on the floor that had no other drug interactions for the nurses to be concerned with.  There but for the grace of God I go.
Proverbs 3: 24 When thou liest down, thou shalt not be afraid: yea, thou shalt lie down, and thy sleep shall be sweet. 25 Be not afraid of sudden fear, neither of the desolation of the wicked, when it cometh. 26 For the Lord shall be thy confidence, and shall keep thy foot from being taken.
