if its not one thing…


I thought I had the Flu, and was nervous that I may possibly have mono.  I have neither.  What I do have is a virus called pneumonitis, a secret agent named “Newman” who came into my body and gave me flu-symptoms to make me think i have the flu, while it did it’s secret plans in the background.  It’s objective was to infect both of my lungs and give me pnemonia. 


I went to the doctor wednesday and she told me something complicated, but I made that story up because it sounds so much better.  The doctor told me that if i didn’t come see her I would have pnemonia in a week (right before my Campus Visit Weekend… that would have been really bad).  Apparently it has almost completly infected my entire left lung.  So the doctor gave me some antibiotics and when i picked them up, it was 6 pills (that’s it).  I called the antibiotic “special agent 007” who’s sole purpose was to track and stop Neman and somehow reverse what he’s been doing with a aresonal of lung grenades to break up all the build-up.  Right now there’s been several bombs released, but 007 is hot on Newman’s trail.


Yeah, I have a lot of time on my hands when I’m in bed, but that doesn’t mean I can’t use my creativity.

  2. I’m glad you have a secret agent on your side. We all need one of those once in awhile. I pray you are well before that weekend! Above all, I pray that God uses this time for His glory in your life. Remember what God told Paul.

    2 Cor 12:9- “And He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.”

  3. Ok, I have a question about the LamadOhana site…I can’t upload any new pictures…is that because there is working being done on it? I was just wondering…I would like to place some pictures of Chris and I on there…;) *wink*

  4. Bro, that junk has been going around like mad up here.  It seems everyone has been in the hospital or something like that.  People just don’t know how seriously sick they are until they end up in the hospital.  I am glad you caught it early.  Take care of yourself!
