Dear Ben:

Every now and then, we find ourselves challenged. These moments test us and prove to ourselves we are all worthy. Please get well!

Dear Ben:

I have a true story that shall make you chuckle.

About two an a half years ago, I wasn’t myself. My wife was concerned that my eating was far from my usual self. Even carrying my camera bag became very heavy. What does a body and four lenses weigh?
She scheduled me for an endoscopy. The day of the exam, the doctor, an old friend, told me he wasn’t going to do the procedure. I was breathing too heavy. He scheduled me for a sonogram of my heart. I heard a murmur that was very prominent. They scheduled me for an echo and heart surgery.
I was rushed to the hospital and had emergency open heart surgery. Wait…What? I didn’t have a chance to think about it. A short time before this I rattled off to my wonderful wife, about some things and when it was my turn to meet The
L-RD, it will be a cold, rainy day on Earth. We are going to have a lot of things to discuss and perhaps argue about. It was raining and unusually cold that day. My wife thought I was going to be toast.
Open heart surgery was done and I had a subacute bacterial endocarditis caused by a dental implant. The doctor put in a cow valve rather than a mechanical valve. He said he would rather hear me “moo” every few words rather than hear the “click-clack” of a mechanical valve. I also don’t want to be on Coumadin for the rest of my life. (I am a pharmacist and know all about it!) I awoke in the ICU. As I lay there nurses would come in and ask me if I wanted any pain meds. I said NO! Doctor had come in as well and asked if I wanted pain meds was well. I had also said NO! They asked me why I wasn’t in pain. Really just wanting to rest, I said, “people from my planet don’t have pain.” They looked at each other and walked out of the room and let me rest.
Being a cranky old Scoutmaster, I always believed “Pain is weakness leaving the body.”

I do hope you feel better and chuckle every now and then thinking of this when you are not feeling your best!
