Can't believe that I've not "posted" in the last thirty days!
Life is good. Am still holding my weight at 140 and am learning that even tho you my "kick cancer" you still have to live the rest of your life with "rearranged plumbing". Once the docs take part of you stomach life changes forever. I eat, seems like, all the time --- and that's a good thing, especially since everything tastes good now.
Need to report on two of the ones that you all are praying for. Marilyn is doing great. Got a good report. And, Jimmy D made it to a milestone, his daughter got married. I know, somewhat, how he feels. I made it to my granddaughter's wedding last August. There was some serious thought (and not by me) that I might not make it, but I did! The Lord is good --- and so is Lynda!
For me, all is well. It's easy to describe how bad you feel and why but it's a little difficult to explain it all when life is going "normal."
Still have to teach myself how to run. For the first time. I guess I came out of the womb running but the last two years took me down and now I having to listen, (to my self), what I told a thousand people over the years. "Run so that whoever sees you thinks you are running. Then, when you can't do that any more, start walking until you feel like you can run again. What will happen, in time, you will walk less and run more." Hard to be attentive to your own words but I'm learning.
About Me
- Leighton "Pops" Railsback
- Life brings joys and challenges, so let's look at the "Joys." (and skip "me") You're blessed if you have a wonderful lifemate, (in my case that reads "wife"), children, grandchildren and wonderful friends. I have it all. My belief is that if you have your life, and faith, in order you are ready to handle what comes your way. I attempt to maintain order in my life in the following priorities. Faith, Family, Finances, Friends and Fun. Take care of the first four and you can stick Fun in anywhere.
When you don't post these days, I simply think that you are doing well, and busy with the activities of your life. Thanks for reassuming me that my assumption is correct.
ReplyDeleteGood news about your cancer buddies. Unfortunately, I am getting a list of cancer friends myself. What a tough diagnosis, with so many types of cancer and a variety of treatments. God bless them all . . . and you, of course.
As for your running/walking for exercise, I am a bit envious. With my bad right knee, I have given up even walking as a form of keeping fit. I can ride a recumbent bike. Yes, I know that most folks get a new knee, but I am still rather attached to the one I have, and it keeps on going as long as I am moderate in my use of it.
It is such good news about your ability to enjoy eating, even in frequent small amounts. My God continue to bless you with healing and you dear Lynda with peace and patience.
As always with love, Grace
Keep on running as though you were running away from the big "C". You can do it. :-)
