Re: Guys I could use some prayer......
Colonel,
In times of great suffering, I take great comfort knowing that Christ has, in solidarity with us, fully entered into this suffering and has given us hope through his resurrection. One of my favorite passages is Romans 8 and right in the middle of talking about sin, Paul starts talking about the physical world, noting that all of creation groans in suffering, as if all God's creature are in childbirth waiting for Christ to return and for the whole creation to be redeemed.
It's grim, I guess, to think of all creatures joining voices in a symphony of suffering. But, it's expectant suffering.
In any event, know that you are not alone.

Thank you guys, I'm a whole lot better. I'm not hitting all 8 cylinders just yet, but I'm close.
It was wild. Your mind telling you one thing and your emotions another. I was a wreck. I appreciate all your prayers and good thoughts. God bless you all!

Re: Guys I could use some prayer......
Glad to hear our prayers were answered and that you are feeling much better!
I have had similar reactions though of less severity to medications and they are NOT FUN!
Welcome back!

Re: Guys I could use some prayer......
Thank you so much guys, I know that your prayers are making a difference. The mental/emotional stuff is mostly gone. I'm still having some medicine related physical issues, but I'm handling it better.
Tomorrow I get to cut the dose in half again. I'll finally be down to a normal human dose of steroids! Praise be unto God!
The good part is through all this I've had time to watch to bay for pocket knives. I've been wearing out the Camillus 69's and Western 742's, lol. I think I got two last week, have one in the mail, and just paid for another. I better get well before I go broke!
