Burwick where are you?

I'm lying in a Northern Kentucky hospital.
Mentally: frazzled. DONT KNOW WHAT PRECIPITATED THE JOURNEY... OTHER THAN I AWAKENED NEAR MY FOUR WHEELER WHICH WAS SNUGGLED UP AGAINST SOME BRSUSH AND TREES. MY DEER HUNTING GUN LAY BESIDE ME. I HAD CRAWLED ABOUT 50 FEET, HAULING MY BROKEN LEG UP A HILL HOPING TO REACH SOMEONE BEFORE IT GOT DARK. SUDDENLY RECALLED MY CELL PHONE IN MY POCKET. 'DIALED THERESA.

FRIDAY NIGHT IS TYPICALLY DATE NIGHT. THIS NOW HAS THE REPUTATION OF BEING THE DATE FROM HELL. THE ER WOULDN'T GIVE ME MEDICAL RELIEF UNTIL THERE WAs THOROUGH EXANINATION.

TRANSFERRED TO A REHAB HOSPITAL. fINALLY RECEIVED MORPHINE. WASN'T STRONG ENOUGH. FOUGHT THE PAIN FROM THE BROKEN TIBULA PLATEAU WHICH IS NOW BEING HELD TOGETHER BY A METAL PLATE WITH 17 INCH SHOP SCREWS - WELL THEY FEEL THAT LONG.

OF COURSE MOST HAVE FELT THE PAIN OF CONSTIPATION.

THEN AT THE PROPER TIME IS MUST ASK MY LOVING ABBA PAPA,"WHAT IS THE VALUE OF THIS EXPERIENCE. WHY AND HOW DOES GOD WANT TO USE THIS IN MY LIFE DOES THIS HAVE TO DO WITH BEOKENNES? 2 COR.12 9-11
