To: Mark17
Thank you for your kind wishes. I AM getting healthier. I find I can only say the Rosary or the Divine Mercy chaplet when I'm walking, so that provides the kick-in-the-pants of motivation that gets me going. I'm walking around the neighborhood without my quad cane, looking at dogwoods and dandelions and trying not to trip over sidewalk cracks and broken pavement.
I am obviously slow and not well-balanced, but just to breathe the air is a Good Thing.
Being on a ventilator for 16 days was horrible, even though it saved my life.
That, and about a million prayers from FReepers, friends and family. Man, I owe a TON of prayers.
It's given me a lot to think about.

I take it that you and your husband both have long been among those who freely give prayers for others.
We all owe God Himself who's own goodness (what there can be of that in humans) is the Source itself.
Some of us either don't know that (that we are debtors, yet are free)
or else do forget, the consciousness of that being oftentimes overwhelmed
by things beyond our own control, or even comprehension.(Ephesians 6:12)
So ---- be free.
