Joe, what's the address there for those who would want to send some 'get well' cards to your wife?

Reading this is like reliving the past - not in the same illness or procedures but the helpless feeling when a loved one is having medical problems and you can only be there but can't do anything about it . A slow progression of any of these things and watching or living with someone as some disease or condition slowly changes another's life - and you are powerless to change of stop this . Prayer helps yet it is for understanding and for relief part of which is for changing a outcome we know the results of will change both yours and another's life . I sat and read a interview the wife had with a doctor the last time she was in the hospital - he asked many questions - and recorded her answers - it still moves me the courage another has when they know things they will not share or tell - even or because of that bond two people have - or is it one has for the other .
May all work out in ways you and wife can deal with - and with the Lord's help can face and enjoy tomorrows together in a way to be comfort to you both

Joe, sorry your loving wife had to lose her foot but you still have her. There will be some big adjustments for both of you and she will need to follow the doctor's advice and do what she needs to do to take care of herself. And take care of yourself also and try to get some rest. Continuing to lift both of you up in prayer.

DJ, I sure wasn't to Trump's rally, was to busy diggen an pounden clay yesterday... an stretchin up bawb-wire... Thet stuff that gots a bunch of pointers on it... an makes ye bleed if dug in to deep...  Them are butt cut electric poles about 11 foot long and are buried at about 5 1/2 foot depth. Clay all the way down...and they're tamped hard around them. And then stretching the fence for 1/8th mile to keep them 4 footed cudd chewin critters from being able to escape as a few did the other day. .... an this morning, the ring leaders were sure complaining... about like what the liberal clowns do these days.  Hows that for changin the subject? Yup, think ye are haven a bad day and then look around and see others are having a worse day than you can imagine... Makes one glad that he can still go and pound sand clay.. even if he has to use a skid loader to set that heavy post in.. because he's either gitten old an weak or tryin to work a little smarter.

Hey JC,,,is they any fish in thet crik back there?? ( ole Shameless been teachin me to pay attention to stuff in the back),,,,,
Yeah guys,,when you get in this type sit-i-ation one has lots of time to dwell on all sorts of stuff. You know it will be a life-changer,,, just ain got a clue bout what all it fixin to be. I wished I.d been more forcefull in sayin " NO" but then you don.t want to be in a continual fight. Thet dang Diabetes knows no boundries and has absolutly no conscious. I feel my wife will pay more heed now that she has lost a very important limb.
Ya' ll remember some time back,, i posted bout how bad my hands was cracking???? Well....since i ain t been shade treein on them dang FORDS...for dang near two whole weeks,,,,my hands is like a babys butt!!!! lol...and they is CLEAN too ha.ha.ha

Joe, yea there's them little fishies in thet creek... ah er river, that's the outlet, the inlet is the creek... an there is a lake beyound them trees on the left side. Gots a old aluminum row boat that we could set in them waters and go out and watch the fish just jump in the boat... well maybe needs a little bait an a fishen pole. ... and prolly need a license too to fish and if'n one don't wants to row, gotta buy a boat sticker and throw on the outboard and putter across them waters... sunnies pumpkins bass bluegills northern an bullheads, even a dogfish now an then are caught in the lake... mmm, use to go catchin red horse suckers in the creek by hand ... Now ye got me to wonderin if they have already ran. yea, life sure can change in a moment, sometimes for the good an sometimes for the bad. If'n ye ever takes a little drive up here to wisconsin, I'll pull out the old boat... or get my nephew to bring his pontoon. Gots a nice flat deck on that.

Darrel, you plannin on hitch'n a ride with Shamers an ol'e DJ? I s'pose
they could make a slight detour an picks ye up on their way... Should
be plenty of room on there, even for any loungers... Nephew has done a
grillen party out on the waters before... burgers, brauts, maybe even some
Texas wild piggie an of course the fishies ye catch out there too...
LOL Prolly even find a sandy shallow place to jump off and lay in
the warm waters if ye comes in the middle of summer... but gots ta
for-warn ye that theres govermunt agents in the water in some place...
they attach them selves and start suckin your blood...easy ta git rid of
them compared to them blood suckers in DC...

Hey DJ, theres a book out there with "quick comebacks" ? Hows about quick Shamers replies???
Ahhh, why not just flipps em in the fry pan? Oh yea gots ta slit and
falay em first... Craps, that brings back the memories of days long
ago goin up to Lake Superior and go smeltin and haul home 55 gallon
drums of them little wigglers... Wadders and smelt nets... leave at 6 or
7pm and get home at 3 or 4 am... that was fun times but like
everything, that changed too, the big ships brought in the lampre eel
and they started eating up the little smelt and other fishies too. This the Black Label yur bringin? Prolly not.   Shucks, thinks they got some freakin laws that ye can't be raisen your alcohol levels to high whilest out on the waters... Been awhile since I have had a fishn permit... does it include catchin the fish'n wardens and cookin em too?  Darrel,
I haven't watched them wimen down on the lake for years, you might have
to bring some good lookin ones to make sure ye got sumthun to see...  an
we don't have to settle for this lake, we gots many within just
miles... Big Wood Lake, Mud Hen Lake, Clam Lake, Spirit Lake, Dunhum
Lake, Devil's Lake, Yellow Lake, Clear lake, Long Lake, Diamond Lake,
Silver Lake, Sand Lake and Crooked Lake... and we can forgets about
Fish lake cuzz I never heard anyone catchn any fish out of the meadows
that the 'Do Nothing Right' fellers dammed up an flooded. 
Sheesh, I remember the lake haven 4 active farms on it and only two cabins...
an now theres 50+ residences on there an one active farm. Hey Shamles, it'll be plastic or paper plates.

Hey guys,,,, great news,,!!! nurse just told me they just got discharge orders for tomorrow to the new Rehab facility in Carlsbad Medical Center,,, yea yea.
It is bout a 25 min drive from our house but is brand new and has all private rooms which facility in our town does not have.
I, m so glad we are finally going home even tho Joyce is not going to our house just yet, she is going home.
I cannot begin to count the many ways all my friends here have provided spiritual support,, it means so much to us and we will never forget.
I was so moved by Coke's post and,,Coke,, i feel your pain,, Big Guy. May peace be with you,,,I understand your pain.
Again,,,,I am just so impressed at the way this site looks after their fellow members during trying times and the concerns are undoubtedly straight from the ❤
