I requested a copy of the scans from before and after my surgery so I could post them here. I have had several requests to see the actual scans. So, I submitted that request and was quite happy to receive them. There was only one problem...there were no scans, just the radiologists report of my scans. So, until I receive the actual pictures, I will be posting some of the radiologist reports. Some of them are quite revealing of pons infarctions, cerebellar infarctions, brain stem infarctions and swelling of the dura. So, look for those in the next few days as I post them (one at a time, since there are quite a few and they are quite extensive.)
A few years ago I was presented with the opportunity to come back to Stratford, Iowa, to First Baptist church, as their pastor; for those of you who have followed this blog for some time, FBC in Stratford was my first pastorate. Let's just say I prayed about it as I was jumping at the opportunity. The church has a parsonage, so I could live there and not have to worry about a houe payment; and I needed to slow down, and this was a part time position (which, as a side note, allowed for me to get a greater disability from the VA than when I was working full time with St. Croix Hospice...) We love Stratford, and absolutely love the church; the people are wonderful and accepted us, again, with open arms. This was, for me, the perfect position: I get to pastor a church I LOVE, I get to do life with people I LOVE, and I have already had the opportunity to do weddings and baptism services for kids (adults now) that I have known their entire lives. IT IS GREAT. The longer I have been here,
