ER

Posted in Uncategorized  by Donnie

I like to think that I am in pretty good shape and in pretty good health.  I have not been to the doctor in about 20 years much less the emergency room.  But, in April, while we were in the mountains for Spring Break, I got strep throat and had to go the emergency room.  And just this past Friday night, while on vacation in Daytona Beach, Florida, I had to take a visit to the emergency room for muscle spasms in my lower back.  I must be getting old.  I hate being sick and I never take medecine, but the three prescriptions they gave me at the ER on Friday night seem to be helping.  My back has been hurting so bad, I had them give me two shots while I was there.  I had to stay in bed for a couple of days because I hurt so bad.  I pity anyone who has back problems.  Being down and not able to have fun with the family stinks.  It is now Monday and I am able to be up and about, but my back still “catches” every once in a while and it really hurts.  I am praying that God heals my back so I can continue to do what he has called me to do.

I am going to be in Baton Rouge, LA on the 10th and 11th, Cut Off, LA on the 13th and Pearland, TX on the 14th then I head home.  Looking for God to do big things.  I will write later to tell of the things that He did.
