Today
-Read the scripture readings from Mass.
-RIAY Day 54-My Beloved son

Health update…
-I lowered my CPAP to 1.3 events/hr. from 60 and increased it to 6-7 hrs. of sleep from 3. I still hate the dry throat and the entire process, but it is working.
-Weight loss, miserable failure. Nothing works.
-Foot neuropathy starting treatments over. They are so time-consuming I haven’t been doing them, progress had been made, and now without it, I am back where I started.
In a nutshell… I’m a physical mess and apparently have no willpower to keep at it. So, I begin again.
-Sinus/chest congestion issues finally breaking up.

My apologies to Katherine for not attending the shower yesterday. I had to decide between two options because I could not do both. My thank you to Mark & Val for a very pleasurable dinner and conversation. We played “Dodge-the-Deer” all the way home… won. Today, however, I will remain home for the duration. The legs are so bad walking further than the bathroom is not an option. Perhaps a good treatment will relieve it so that tomorrow I can do my responsibilities without too many issues.

Prayers go up today for GS, KS, and SS for the needs/issues in their lives. Prayers for Pope Francis… God’s will. For me to get with and stick to the health issues and wellness.

Know you are prayed for.
