Home from the hostpital (NCC)

[Guest guest]

I want to thank each and everyone of you who responded for my prayer

requests... I felt them all and apparently God heard you as well because he

sent an angel to be with me while I was in the operating room... I have the

neatest story to tell you guys... I know it may sound far fetched but it is

the honest truth...

I was wheeled into the operating room and I was shaking like crazy from the

nerves... I was literally terrified... and I happened to look over into the

corner and I saw a young man standing there... I have seen this young man

before and I instantly recognized him as my guardian angel... I know who he

is because I have seen him twice before now when ever i was in either great

danger or in need of holy intervention... anyway I looked at him and I said,

" You better be here to protect me and not to 'take " me. " He simply smiled

and he walked over and stood next to the operating table I had just managed

to get onto... well at that time my surgeon asked me, will it be ok with you

if we pray before we get started? We first of all that just shocked the snot

out of me... i wasn't expecting that... I said, by all means please pray

away... well the neatest thing happened... everyone in that room stood

around the table and each one of them layed a hand on me... they all bowed

their heads and the surgeon spoke his prayer and the surgical team mouthed

theirs silently... well while Dr Walton was praying, my angel laid his hands

on Dr Waltons hands... I knew then I was going to be ok and that I would

wake up... I had a peace come over me like I had never felt before then the

anesthesiologist said ok you are going to get really drowsy here in about 2

seconds... next thing I knew I was being told to wake up... I was in the

recovery room and begging for something to drink I was so dang dry...

well I am home now and since Wednesday I have lost 21 lbs! so If anyone is

thinking about doing a gastric bypass, all I can say is so far so good...

this was one surgery I never wanted to do but because of the injury I have I

could no longer exercise and i was just gaining weight so fast and couldn't

stop it... I was even placed on a 700 calorie diet and I gained 8lbs in 5

days on that diet... i was never so frustrated in my life... I am hoping

that by the end of the spring that I will have lost enough weight that I can

get my cord detethered and I wont need the decompression... I really don;t

want to go under the knife more than have to... I really hate anesthesia...

I am STILL numb from that stuff...

well thanks again for the prayers and happy thoughts... they worked...

Have a happy new years!!!

Holly
