Good Health

Today I'm thankful that my Dad is resting peacefully after the emergency surgery that he had this morning. He's been in the hospital off and on for the past 2 years for pain in his stomach and last night the pain just wouldn't stop, even with medication. So, this time he had no choice, the doctor made him go in for surgery, which when you are 80 is scary. Very scary. I knew when the phone rang so, so, early this morning that something was wrong and that's exactly how I answered. "Mom, what's wrong?" They removed his intestines, all 15 feet, straightened them out and sewed him up. Now he just has to heal. God is so good to us....
