Without a doubt you really need Yah all over this recovery phase you're going through Walt...being bathed and lifted up in in His Set-Apart Spirit our Spiritual Mother in times like this; is also why I continue to ask Yahowah to sustain and heal you quickly per His will and timing.

Having worked the inside of healthcare the past 20 years I can tell you from my experience it has gotten worse...doctors really don't want to get involved with other doctor's patients for litigation reasons, but more so (IMHO) out of it being convenient for them not to, and the patients (and a lot of the times, the staff) get caught in the middle...good supportive staff will keep many doctors on their toes; but a lot of staff suffer from the same problems in that they will often do things out of convenience as well since there's tog-of-war going on between their want to do good for their patients (taking the care of their individual patients personally) and a top heavy administration that's a typical business that's trying to pocket revenue while cutting cost -- so there is a lot of passing the 'buck' as it were, in doctors will blame the previous doctor for not doing this or that with the auxillary staff do the same with their shifts in blaming the previous shift for dumping on them...it's sad and depressing for me (in that I really don't look forward to going to work a lot of the time, just because of the nature of the machine - the machine of healthcare (much of Obama's healthcare plan was already being implemented turning Bush's term in office; hard to believe, but insurance companies and administrators knew then, what we're starting to see now) all these things coupled with an 'entitlement-driven populace' will eat not just the patients alive, but everyone working in healthcare get eaten up and spit out as well...

I don't know about anyone else, but for me, since I left Christianity back in December to embrace Yah in His Torah and in how He's revealed Himself to us there (in the paleo-Hebrew) and rejecting N.T. as being Yah's Word (and rejecting everything about Paul without question, seeing him and his Christianity is of the adversary and not of Yah at all) that things have gotten worse for me? I mean I've been separated from my folks and siblings being left alone and isolated without much fellowshipping since nobody knows what I'm talking about anyway (and they don't receive the things of Yah from His perspective - nor do they really have a desire to, just as I didn't prior to learning the truth)...I mean, how much in the way of sports and the weather can we talk about and/or is even interesting since the majority of the time I find myself thinking of Yah's Torah, and on things related to Him and how He's related Himself to us on His terms which really is so loving and kind of Him to give us His Torah so we can form a loving family relationship with Him as He works the Torah on our behalf (fulfills the Feast Days for us - while we embrace Him in the TPP...observing His admonishments and instructions so as to not deviate to the left or right, that's keeping us on the straight and narrow bath leading us home...) just the same I find it getting harder and harder to put a smile on my face and/or not see the glass being half full rather seeing everything as being half empty...I pray Yah help me change my perspective regarding my over-all outlook, as well as others of His family whom are going through the same thing!

So yes Walt, I'm continuing to pray over you and the others here that asked for prayer, as well as over all Yah's family during these difficult times, and that Yah would fill us up with more of His, our Spiritual Mother's peace and of Her joy helping us to see things from His perspective that the peace and joy might be even more powerful in each of our lives as we go about our day to day walk in a cesspool that Yah saw and told us isn't going to be getting better from a human perspective...

Yah's best on Him and His family

Thank you all GREATLY for you prayers, encouragement and support.

My original surgeon at Denver can't fit me in till the 29th. His assistant couldn't tell me if I would be admitted or the procedure done as an outpatient, he has to wait until he sees me. He said if the condition worsens to where it is putting pressure on the nerves and organs again, to go to the ER.
The only painful part now (since they drained the 16 oz out) is that it is putting pressure on the incision area stretching it out.

I am over the major part of my anger. It has made me more determined in my physical therapy work at home. I started yesterday and on 1 exercise (laying flat on my back, legs straight out, and lift the leg into the air and letting down slowly) I could not do at all yesterday, I couldn't get it off the ground a fraction, it was like there was no connection there. I got up this morning and channeled my anger trying to lift it until I was able to, then did it 15 times.
I am not going to let some stinking doctors hold me back, I'm going to start walking again as soon as I can, and it's going to be sooner than the 3 months they told me before I could start. And I will praise and thank Yah through it all.

On a side praise, this has brought my wife and I closer together than we've been in a long time, and has kindled her desire to Yada Yahowah, she has started reading Yada's Intro.

Walt, I just knew that you would find the best way out of your difficult situation. Your spirit and determination will get you back to your former, in spite of all the difficulties that may be placed in your way. Stay focused and beat that deadline.

Walt,
What day will you be in Denver? Where in Denver? Maybe we can stop by to meet you!

Walt, bring your camera up there and take another pic from the top of that thing.. that's a great goal, very inspiring.

May you, Walt, pluck a weed from the top!

That looks awesome. I can imagine 8 times that and you would be about equal to mt. everest. It makes you appreciate what training a person must go through to reach this peak out Walts window and then the sacrifice one does to climb something 8 times that. A worthy goal., Walt!

Glad to hear Walt.

Discharged, on way home now!
Thank you Abba Father

Update:
Still on the wound-vac, healing is slow.
Had another trip to ER yesterday, found out I have a blood clot in my right leg from my knee to my groin from the surgery. Now they have me taking rat-poison (coumadin blood thinner) for 6 months to a year.
Is this Yah trying to tell me something?

I know Paul in galatians says to have nothing to do with pharmakeia, is this something from Torah? Does Yah want me to be taking rat poison to get better?

DISCLAIMER: I work in the medical field.

It seems to me that the logic stated here is saying that we should lay all of our mortal life problems at YHWH's feet and trust that he will do what is right.

If you pull your drowning, non-breathing child out of the water what should you do first? Pray to YHWH or start CPR? Since I asked the wrong question I will answer that myself [PRAY]. The right question is
If you pull your drowning, non-breathing child out of the water what should you do? Pray to YHWH OR perform CPR? Obviously(for me) the decision is not between the two actions. I would be praying while doing CPR.

Isn't CPR a medical technology of man's learning? Do you find CPR training or descriptions in the TPP? So where do you stop with this reasoning, are you going to stop driving your car because it is man's technology. Where do we draw the line in the sands of time to say beyond this point technology is evil? There are religions that have drawn these lines, but without TPP guidance they are lines drawn by men.

Walt, I wish the best for your physical recovery Brother. But I pray that Father is with you, watching out for you, protecting, guarding and nurturing your soul.

Isaiah

38:16 O YHWH, by these things men live, and in all these things is the life of my spirit: so wilt thou recover me, and make me to live.

38:17 Behold, for peace I had great bitterness: but thou hast in love to my soul delivered it from the pit of corruption: for thou hast cast all my sins behind thy back.

38:18 For the grave cannot praise thee, death can not celebrate thee: they that go down into the pit cannot hope for thy truth.

38:19 The living, the living, he shall praise thee, as I do this day: the father to the children shall make known thy truth.

38:20 YHWH was ready to save me: therefore we will sing my songs to the stringed instruments all the days of our life in the house of YHWH.

38:21 For Isaiah had said, Let them take a lump of figs, and lay it for a plaister upon the boil, and he shall recover.38:22 Hezekiah also had said, What is the sign that I shall go up to the house of YHWH?

Walt, I hope you aren't suffering too bad physically, but to wonder through life worrying if something has "pig" in it tells me you are worrying about nothing in my opinion. My scenario: You are two hundred yards standing from a fella with a .22 derringer as he fires at you. Now you might hear the blast from the gun, but too worry would be futile bc, we know someone cant hit the broad side of a barn at that distance. Now half that and the same thing, only now the blast makes you act, so you duck slightly. Now again, half that and you are probably gonna still be safe. Not until the guy is within a range that gives him a 50/50 chance do you start feeling like you had better act fast, or else. Why react at all if Gods there to do all your bidding in life? At what distance would someone react for their own safety? Is it not Yah that put all things on Earth? I know ppl that have ingested pork three times a day from childhood. And they lived ripe old ages without narely a hitch in life.. Did the pork send them into a hospital earlier in life than if they hadn't? Who knows? If they had eaten steaks all their life I'm sure they would have been there just as they had with pork. Myself, I know what God said was clean and un-clean foods. But even today in slaughter houses cows are killed in ways you or I wouldn't care to witness and the same with chickens. How are these birds and steroid induced meats any better than a pig today? Today we have refridgeration for all meats to slow their spoilage. At what age should (clean meat) be before we do not ingest it? How old can it be before its bad for you? It's my scenario. If you can be vegan and live a life that supports that type then you are at 200yrds (in most cases, even though many vegans look like they are sick.). Mix it with meat you just cut it in half, maybe. Now half that and you might get lucky and live the same life span as the vegan. But like I mentioned about others and pork all the time, you take you chances. I believe Yah wants us long upon the land. If medicine does this, then fine. And if you stop your medicine and die, what purpose does it serve to not have another day to show praise. We all can't live fault free. Adam had one thing to do and he couldn't. We can't wake up without seeing the deception around us bc Satan has his influence in everything. All I can do is rely upon His promise and see to it that I try every day to see His ways as being right for me. Or in other words, what if pig was the only food source? Did you know the pilgrims used beer for water when they traveld here from England. It kept, while water didn't back then. I don't eat that much pork anylonger just bc I know through God and research it's not good for you to, but when I do, I know today we are a cleaner ppl with cleaner habits and yes, I would certainly take the medicine prescibed me by my physician.
My days of beating myself up over anything ended last week with some words of wisdom from a brother. I walk towards Father and try not to stray, but when and if I do, I know He's compassionate and is re-storing, even to a swine like me. Keep thinking on Him brother.

How much of our using modern medicine is trying to escape/lessen the consequences for poor choices and unhealthy habits?

Somehow I messed up an earlier post. I meant to say:

I'm asking these questions to create discussion and get people thinking, not meaning they are about what I should or shouldn't do - but just in general.

Putting away the gear I'm thinking about the medicine issue that Walt brought up. You all know t's hot down here and I'll bet James will agree with me on that one.. Should I suffer this forsaken heat, or get inside in the ac and get refreashed again? Is using ac taking the "easy" way?...more than likely it is, but I think I'll go in have a shower, grab one more and finish my meal watching the PGA Championship while relaxing in ac.

Dang it anyway Walt, this is heartbreaking what you're being put through -- I can totally understand/empathize with you, that all you want to do is get out of the clutches of the beast system and have some peace.

All I can do as anyone who can who knows Dad - so I'm asking our Father to touch this whole situation with His power, and raise you up so that it will actually be fun and enjoyable to live -loaded with lots and lots of His peace- as we all wait on Dad coming to get us the heck out of Babylon!

'Amein

Brother, it sounds to me like you're not in a position to even buy the vaccine. If that is the case, please say so here in this thread. I'm sure some of us will be happy to ante up whatever we can to help you pull through until you're back on your feet.

Walt, I am so sorry to hear this. Please keep strong, and hang in there. As always I will keep you in my prayers, may Yahowah be with you, strengthen and comfort you.

Oh, no! I'm soo sorry to hear that, Walt. I'm reading a fantastic book by Bruce Fife, NP; it is all about the amazing properties of coconut oil; it supposedly will kill bacteria better than anitbiotics, etc., and without the side effects. You need to ingest about 4 tablespoons daily. Drink coconut milk, and eat natural, unsweetened coconut meat. I hear that the Eastern red cedar has amazing properties to attach MRSA: http://www.examiner.com/...d-effective-against-mrsa

Even so, Walt, if your rehabilitation is delayed and you do not get back to work when you wish and contemplate, send me a pm. I would be only too happy to help. Keep your courage and trust in Yah. This, too, will pass. I predict no more than a week for the drug to work. All last month and part of July I was in and out of doctors and dentists offices and the hospital with a gum infection from teeth extractions, about a dozen visits, until finally in week five of this agony the massive doses of antibiotics began to work. One side of my face was grotesquely swollen and the pain was unrelenting. Take some time now to figure out how long it will take to climb that mountain behind you, the number of steps it will take to the top, all the good thoughts as you start that rapid recovery, because it is coming your way now. We are with you as you are with us.

Walt, hang in there, you can make it.

On a side note I was looking t the picture you posted of the mountain you were going to climb when you get better. I predict you will be able to do it with 6 stops along the way, plus 1 final stop at the top.

THANK YOU all for your prayers, support and encouragement. It means A LOT.
The hard thing is that I'm recovered from the original injury - what I'm going through is a result of failures by doctors. The drugs they are giving me to cure me are making me feel horrible with the different side effects.

Tagim, you didn't have to go that literal to mean it when you say "I feel your pain", now it's time to send some prayers your direction.

Thanks my sister for asking.
I finished my 14 days on the MRSA drug Tues (the side effects/drug interactions were taking a toll on me) and they re-cultured me Thurs. Since it takes 48 hours to culture, and it being a weekend, I won't know the results until Mon. My concern was that if the culture comes back still positive, I will be off the drug for 5 days, giving the MRSA time to get a stronger hold. This is a bad-a## bug, so even if I'm clean, I would like the Eastern Red Cedar as a precautionary cleanser. It shows the AWESOMENESS of Yah that a drug-resilient bug like this would have a easy natural cure.
On a Praise note, when the surgeon took the wound dressing off, he said "Wow, it's healing good (people's prayer at work!)" with "If you had come to see me 2-3 weeks earlier, I could have closed the wound up".
I see my primary care Dr Wed for a return to work visit. PRAYERS PLEASE, I need to return to work, besides the earning a paycheck issue, I'm going bonkers.
