I go into the hospital for hip replacement surgery February 11th. \u00a0My gait gives it away to onlookers. \u00a0I have been hobbling for some time now. \u00a0It began with a simple pain that worsened into a constant ache. \u00a0It’s reminiscent of my condition about a decade ago. \u00a0It was my left hip then. \u00a0The only time it didn’t hurt was when I rode my Harley. \u00a0No Harley these days and the ache is nonstop.<\/p>\n
I had thought I could postpone this surgery until December. \u00a0I have workshops already committed to and didn’t want any interruptions. \u00a0But my body called and fortunately, \u00a0there was a window of opportunity that fit me, the surgeon and my workload. \u00a0So if you have time on Thursday to blow a prayer my way, I’d appreciate it.<\/p>\n
Actually, I have no fear. \u00a0I think having been through it before helps, of course, but I also have the faith needed to know that there is a perfect outcome. Whatever my situation might be following surgery, I will be in good hands, as well as God’s hands. \u00a0Having constant \u00a0contact with God, a gift that I have nurtured for decades, pays off.<\/p>\n
As I tell sponsees and friends all the time, we are always prepared for the experiences that wear our names. \u00a0Believing that has allowed me to live free of anxiety. \u00a0As I told a friend today who has made a big change in her life, she is embarking on a sweet adventure. \u00a0Every day is a sweet adventure, for all of us, whether we are doing the same dance or a new one. \u00a0Aren’t we a lucky bunch of people? \u00a0I sure think so. \u00a0Thanks for visiting my blog. \u00a0I love our friendship.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
