Heart Attack!
We never know the "bumps" in the road that come along in life. On August 25th I posted my blog here on Goodreads and three days later on August 28th I suffered an heart attack.
Thinking I was having muscle spasm I went to my doctor who quickly determined I was having a heart attack. I was rushed to ER and they performed 5 Bypass surgeries.
I am now in recovery mode. Although God directed a successful surgery and enabled me to make a rapid recovery in the hospital, I still have a ways to go.
It has been almost two weeks since writing my blog. Sorry for the absence, but some things cannot be helped.
What does one do when slammed by a heart attack?
In other words, how do I get back to doing what I love? You take one step at a time. Things are moving rather slowly, but I am taking a step by step approach.
I think it is very important that dramatic results will come if I continue forward even though it may appear to be slow. My writing career is not over!
So what are my plans?
First is to concentrate on getting better every single day. In other words, my first priority is to concentrate on getting better. All other activities are of lesser importance.
Second, is to remember that God is good - Always! He protected me throughout the operation and enabled me to come home the following Tuesday.
A short note on this. I had the surgery the followup recovery at Fawcett Hospital. The surgery by Dr. Mckinney was perfect, but I was not aware of what was going on. Later in the Cardiac Care Unit I was blessed by the tender care of the nursing staff. They were surprised by my rapid recovery.
Many of them acknowledged their surprise and God's involvement.
Third, don't panic. The world is not lost if I don't get my blogs out as timely as before, My readers will understand. In the end, God is restoring me day by day, and the day will soon arrive when I am driving full speed ahead.
All that said, I am trying to move forward and this blog is one of the first steps.
