Here I am having one of my favorite hunting camp breakfasts, eggs cooked with corned beef hash fresh out of the can. Then there is good strong coffee. And then there are three dashes of Lourdes holy water, one behind each ear and one on my chest. I am a happy guy. I guess this is why Sherie has saved this healing water from eighteen years ago just to make me a happy guy.
Sometimes the components of sanity seem pretty simple. I am walking though my fifth new treatment with the chemical that I need to know how to love. It is helping me, it is helping me, it is helping me but it is a hard relationship. It takes all my powers to deal with it and to try to come up with a way to live with it. Yea, but I am confident that this will happen with your prayers and coaching and hovering over me.
Speaking of hovering, Catherine and Dana are back from their two week junket in Hawaii. I have missed them immensely. They are the best at hovering over me. It is reassuring to feel the pulse of that soft breeze their wings create. I’m a happy guy.
What else is new, My Rebecca made the bestest spaghetti sauce ever. I am always trying to make the bestest but I was humbled by her entry. She built it around a pound of ground venison gifted by Brad and Amy, other great neighbors. I am eating well when I can and have turned my weight loss around. Once again, happy happy.
My Rebecca dragged me off for some culture a couple evenings ago here to the Vashon Theatre. Big Sonia was playing. It is a feature length documentary about a very active, kickass little, in physical stature, women who survived the death camps of World War Two Europe. Very moving film, you’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you will receive an education. Check for screening in your neighborhood at www.bigsonia.com .
OK, time to get ready for my trek to the big city and the treatment center. Happy loves, Felipe.
Phil, It’s clear your spirits are getting higher as you continue to get better both with treatment and with your positive mindset. KEEP IT GOING!
I think that perhaps you personally will never know the amount of people that you inspire or touch from these blogs, whether it be across the Puget Sound in Poulsbo, conversations amongst people (for example my entire Graduate- fellow students and Professors) or literally around the world.
All of your blog posts collectively would make one great book, along with the pictures.
When you go in for these treatments and blog about it, I know for certain that there are many, many of us going there with you in spirit and anticipating the same great results, results which we know now have worked. The power of positive thinking can heal an amazing amount. There maybe times with not so many comments, but there is certainly a great deal of folks watching it all.
Hey, it helps that we are having better weather!
Cheers Phil!
Thanks Ryck, you are a bright light. One thing that ai have learned is that I can’t pull this off alone. I need you and others to buoy me up at times, and visa versa. Hope to see you soon. Felipe.
