Health Update

First of all, thank you to everyone for prayers. I greatly appreciated them.

Now, in the immortal words of Arnold Scwarzenegger: "It ees naht a toomah." Nope. Just really bad sinus congestion and flu stuff that played havoc with my inner ear. By Monday I was sneezing and coughing out the gunk, and had no problems whatsoever.

If my face appears a bit red, it's the sheepishness I'm feeling for having freaked like I did at the mention of the acronym "MRI". But you have to understand, I've never had anything seriously wrong with me (physically, that is ) in my life. I've been in the hospital twice: once to have my tonsils out when I was five, and once right before eighth grade when they kept me overnight for observation after splitting my head open on the bottom of the public pool. (And by the way, that last shore do 'splain a lot, donit?!) Other than that it's been brief ER visits for football injuries like a sprained knee and a broken nose.

So, thanks for the prayers. And don't mind the hospital-phobic twitchy guy writing the posts.

Carry on.

Thanks be to God it was something easily treatable.

I had an ear infection last year that the fluid was at the base of my neck instead of behind my ear (I don't understand why either), so I completely understand where you are coming from.

Prayers are always a good thing to ask for, and no one should begrudge you them.
