Followup on Colon

Well not that anyone is reading. LOL But my colon scope was a success. Thirty minutes and you are out of there.  All that sitting and waiting.  Then when you go into the room, it goes quick.  One of the nurses said, we work very fast, I said, not too fast I hope.  One of my polyps was precancerous and one was not.  They burn them out.  So now every three year, I will have a check up called a colon scope.

Enough about that.  I was reading my "Jesus Calling" devotional, when I saw this passage, "If it is the Lord's will, we will live and do this or that." James 4:15  One of my friends would always say, if it is the Lords will, we will do bible school together.  I would think, what does she mean by that?  Now I know why she said that.  Maybe you should ask your Christian friends, why they say things the way they do.  Speak in word of truth is what the Lord said, I think this was in John 17:17.  Sometimes I will telling something and then later I will see the scripture it came from.
Read the Word of God so that it may come out of your mouth.

I know some things that may come out of your mouth are not from God.  I am a living testimony to that.  We have a new neighbor who is a pastor.  I told some of my friends, it is like having Jesus live next to you. If you walk out of your house saying something you shouldn't, you are looking around to make sure no one is listening. Guess we should remember, God is always listening. Whether it is something we should not be saying or whether it is a prayer, He hears it all!

This will be a short blog, so let me finish with this: "Do you not know?  Have you not heard?  The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth.  He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom.  He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak.  Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength.  They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.  Isaiah 40:28-31

Ageless

This Year had many twist and turns, from the changing of a new year, to a realty check of how old I am.

While still feeling like I'm 20, lol  Pains from exercising and not being as spunky as I was in my 20's, has had a reality check on me. With my parents both gone, and my husbands parents ageing rapidly, more time spent on them, sometimes then us it seems.  It causes me to look at what we need to be doing.

It seems we are not getting away as much as we did with the demands of job, family, parents and life in general.

However, checking out our health is important. With that said, here is what we did.  My hubby and I were clever and book Doctor appointments on the same date. Because we live in a small town we had to go out of town for those appointments.   Hubby drop me off early at my appointment, due to his Dr being on the complete opposite side of town.  One never knows how long you will have to wait to be seen by a Doctor..

As I waited the usual events happened, pay my Co pay and then be called for my procedure.  I had time to look at plenty of magazines. Then the clock was ticking and soon it was almost time for me to go in for my colonoscopy.  But wait, my husband wasn't back from his appointment, would I be going in alone.  Just as they called my name and I approached the nurse, the entry door open, and to my relief it was my hubby.  Handed him my purse and off to the room to get prepped.  Basically getting your gown on for the procedure.

Now this was the longest day of my life. I had been there since 9:00 am and went in at 12:30 p.m.
Finally my turn to go in and have GI and colonoscopy. Out and then before you know it, in a room and there was my hubby.  Doctor walks in and hands hubby pictures and said, you have two polyps, biopsy will return in a few days. Everything is ok...WHAT...I am sad, while normal for others you see, my dad had cancerous polyps since he was 40 years old.  So now I'm basically waiting...I tried not to cry, a few tears...but sucked it up, so to speak.  So now I'm in God's hands and guess what, I was in His hands before I went in.  From the time my husband dropped me off, to the time my husband made it in time to see me before I went in...

I will try to update my blog and let you'll know my story.

Here is one fact You get you parents genetics, who's I have more of, my mom's or my dad's will eventually show up...Let pray not my dads in this case.  Diet is important, but then there is genetics!
