I am walking around with crutches (slow going but going none the less), my left foot is still numb but with some needle like tinglings when touched, I can move my toes now as well as my forefoot but I still cannot move my ankle at all. Now for the more important stuff, I still cannot pee. So I have to learn how to self cathaterize (great fun) because that function may never come back. And let me tell you guys who have never had a cathater DON'T HAVE ONE IF YOU DON'T HAVE TO!!! Because that tube goes where it should never go. I have to have one about every 4 - 6 hours. So please continue to pray for us especially Heidi as she is running herself ragged. Thank you all for your prayers.<br>JeffJeffnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3520413.post-72715125417902588582008-12-08T04:47:48.000-07:002008-12-08T04:47:48.000-07:00Nice pic !

Recently, I've had reason to reflect that just because the clouds come down and you can't see the view it doesn't mean that the beauty has gone - it will be revealed again, and never goes away.<br><br>And another thing - I was complaining today about how few people in ministry ever express their vulnerability and emotions, and then I come home and find you doing just that. Enough to convince me that you are one of the healthy guys - believe it.Barbhttp://barbarah07.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3520413.post-62278522009287489262008-12-08T08:58:51.000-07:002008-12-08T08:58:51.000-07:00I'm going to a Blue Christmas this evening, Ra...I'm going to a Blue Christmas this evening, Randall.

Hayley, our 'God' daughter moves in tomorrow, staying 'til at least January.

I do hope you don't have to keep pushing that tube down much longer, but at least doing it yourself will spare some embarassment.Tonihttp://tertl.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
