It's great to stink again

One of the things that the radiologist told me is that my hair loss in the radiation field would be gone permanently and that so would my sweat glands. Well, the hair started coming back about six weeks ago, but not under my arm. Yesterday we noticed it coming back and that I had been sweating. Not a lot, just a few places, but it is a start. I can really begin to feel my body healing itself. God has answered my prayers concerning this.

We went to Glenville, WV on July 3-5 with Ken and Mary Louise. We had a great time four wheeling and getting soaked. We got caught in a whopper of a storm on the fourth and had to keep riding to get back. We were wet, but it was fun. Met some interesting people and had a good time. Life there just seems to slow down. Met a man who went to school with Ken. He told me of his having a heart attack while hunting squirrel when he was 42. He said it knocked him down and it took him a while to get up and be able to walk. He made it to the hospital about 5 hours later. It took him that long to get his limit of squirrel ls before he left for the hospital. His doctor told him at best he would have 5 years and to make out his will. He attended that doctors funeral a few years later as well as his second heart doctor. He is 72 years young and as he puts it, he will keep on trucking until the Lord tells his it's time.

Like I said, great people with a great attitude. Kinda laid back and taking things as they come. I thank God for the people he has placed in my life at this time.
