Sending Prayers



Recommended Posts

I am sending prayers to all of you in the path of Hurricane Katrina.

I was scheduled to speak in New Orleans this week and just cancelled all my reservations this morning.

I hope you all evacuate and get out of harms way.

Thoughts and Prayers are with You'll.

Yes! I'm so glad that you posted this. I was thinking of my dear Paula and all of the other wonderful LBTers here who live in that area.

My thoughts and prayers are with you all, and may the Lord watch over all of you and keep you all safe and protected!

Kelly I was just thinking about Paula this morning. I hope they are ok. I will send up prayers of protection for all of them.

My daughter in Florida didn't get much of anything other than some hard rain. THen it skipped into the gulf and picked up steam and force. It is a category 5 now with winds at 175 MPH.

HUGE prayers. They are evacuating New Orleans. MORE PRAYERS!!!

Hi all! Thanks so much for asking...

At this point, we are safe from this one! *phew*

N.O. is about 3 1/2 hours east of us, so we are quite a distance from this gigantic storm.

Right now we are actually getting only goodness from it - low humidity and steady breezes, with lots of HEAT!

We have a friend that is a big-wig at the newest casino/hotel in our area. He was called into work today to make extra accomidations for all the evacuee's that were arriving.

Funny how the casino's here are filled tonight and the church's remain empty.

Something about that thought scares me.

Thank You GOD!!!!

So happy you fine Paula- I agree that is a strange thought about the casinos & churches. Maybe because they are newer with more structual features. Plus the size. It is strange though ;0)

So glad that you are all ok Paula! I thought about trying to call you, but decided against it - just because I didn't know if you would all be gone or not.

Hopefully everyone else from LBT is safe and sound. Those storms sure are nothing to mess with!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
