the gift

first post in eons due to unexpected surgery....the lifechanging kind.  God is so very good all the time. Recent cardiac visit revealed 100% block of main vessel, calcified over years.  thanks to miracle workers all along the way, have undergone surgery and out of hospital doing recovery.   strength rebuilding and activity are very slow but progressing in the tiniest of increments each day.  after many years of complaining of shortness of breath to providers who saw only my overweight status, it's time to up your game.  I could have been spared much discomfort and on the road to recovery years ago.  catching up on hundreds of emails and starting life anew with the humblest of gratitude and feeling like the luckiest person on earth.
