Hope appeareth, but it is not your Hope-you do not have anything to do with it. It just appeareth. It comes as a stranger, as an alien-it just appeareth! You do not even know why you hope. How in the world could you hope when there is absolutely nothing to justify any hope? ~Joseph W. Mathews

Dear Lynda,
It's been awhile since we connected. You've been on my mind a lot
lately.
I haven't been on the dialogue for several months. I would be pleased
if you could send the message below to the dialogue for me.
Dan is in the hospital, facing surgery on his spinal cord tonight about
9PM, and I would like to know our community is aware of that and keep him in

Dear Ones,
Some of you know that over the past 18 months Dan has been treated for
conditions arising out of a diagnosis of transverse myelitis.
Scarring on his spinal column at some unknown time affects his right
leg. He has no control of his thigh muscle and his foot drops. He wears a brace sometimes and walks with 2 canes to help him stay balanced. From lack of normal walking and exercise he developed blood clots, a deep vein
Last Wednesday we arrived back in Reno after a great visit with Lee &
Leah Early in Seattle & son Eric Tuecke in Portland. His pain was such he couldn't stand or walk. So we went straight to the ER. He was admitted because of great pain in his back. Tonight he will have surgery on his spine. He has excellent medical care here at Renown Medical Center, but when
Thanks, Lee. Dan, to use a good Southern phrase "bless his heart" (and all Southerners know what that really means), has had a tough row to hoe for some time now. Maybe now that we have our global prayer group going, he'll turn out as well as you have after they fixed your head! (:>). He was the first one to help me go from a shy, retiring Okie girl to more of my true self - though some today might say I went too far and fall into the GCB category (Good Christian you-know-whats) on occasion. Working on a kinder, gentler wit these days.

His blood thinner is doing too good a job. The surgeon insists that his blood must be thicker before he performs back surgery to fuse L-11 through L-15. Thicker blood increases the risk of more blood clots in his legs and elsewhere. His surgery has been scheduled for this evening at 9:00 (Monday). He is on a constant morphine drip with self administered bump every 15 minutes. Morphine will be another problem post surgery so he is looking at a rough row to hoe for some weeks to come. That's almost all I know. You don't want to know the rest. Lee On Oct 15, 2012, at 8:41 AM, George Holcombe <geowanda@earthlink.net> wrote: their prayers. thrombosis and pulmonary embolism. Just since Jan. of this year we have been to ER 8 times and admitted to hospital at least 6 times. One of those visits lasted 36 days between hospital and rehab. they are messing with your spine it's a bit scary. His surgeon is excellent, very good reputation and we expect a good outcome.
Your thoughts and prayers will help both of us.
