A heartfelt thank you

for the overwhelming response to my blog yesterday.  Meant the world to me.  I spoke with Steve on the phone last night.  He was very very sick and not keeping any food down, but his emotional state was MUCH better.  I think Tom being there helped tremendously.  The surgery went okay.  He only lost one toe, and the docs were very surprised that they didn’t have to remove more.  Said it was like his foot started healing overnight.  No doubt in my mind that prayers in full faith had something to do with that.  Bless you all. 

 I managed to stay away from that cake yesterday.  I did go home from work and just kinds crawled under the covers and didn’t deal with the world.  I probably needed it.  My emotions are much better today.  I’m way behind on reading blogs, and doubt I will be able to catch up with all my buddies, but please know that you are all in my heart and I’m rooting for you to stay focused and determined.

Remember peeps, it’s not about “dieting”.  It’s about living a healthier life.  You do that, the weight loss is just an added benefit. 

HUGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGS,
Shan

    Glad to hear Steve is in better spirits, that will make all the difference in the world when it comes to the healing process!!

    And thank you for reminding us that this is about living healthy…it sure puts things in perspective for me.

    Shan, I am so glad you hid under the blankie, sometimes, it is the best thing to do for our bodies and for our souls….so long as we don’t remain under them, it always gives us time to pause and REST. God rested after the 7th day, did He not? So why is it we think we shouldn’t get a break from it all once in awhile?
