A seaon of change...



...Everyone must take time to sit and watch the leaves turn ...Elizabeth Lawrence


What a beautiful time of year! Fall.....my favorite. The end of summer flowers but the bloom of firey color. The crisp cool air. The crunch of the leaves beneath your feet. The musty smell of a change of season. There is nothing like walking along the trails in the dense woods and viewing all the splendor of God's canvas. What a beautiful world we live in!

Good outcome!

I have had a lump in my throat for about 3 months and it has caused problems with swallowing and pressure in my left ear. I was referred to an ears, nose, & throat specialist who completed a very UNPLEASANT scope of my throat and then sent me to have a CAT scan for a better look. The results are in......NO CANCER! WHEW!! I was so relieved! I have a lymph gland that is calcifying (I have another one that is many years old at my jaw line) and it shouldn't be a problem to leave it alone but if it continues to disrupt my swallowing or causing too much pressure on my ear he will remove the lymph gland. There is something to be said about the power of prayer!!
