Saffy
 
Hi Rae,

I haven't heard any more from Karen, she's in the North of England and I'm in Ireland but texting via the phone is no big deal.

I'm back in hospital myself since last Sunday with this terrible pain, I had one part of a three part MRI scan today so please God that will show different results.

I hope all is good with you, do please let me know.

Sinéad xxxx :)

Karen

I can't believe all you've been going through. Infections, pain and not getting the care you deserve and need. Please God watch over Karen. Bring her the care, healing, comfort and peace that only you know what she needs. Be with her family as they stay by her. Guide the doctors who are caring for her.

Sending good wishes and prayers your way.

Sandy. :hug:

We all will be praying for you as well. With all you are going thru yourself; you are thinking of dear Karen. Our prayers are with both of you.

Sinéad, oh my I didn't know you've been hospitalized recently. I'm so sorry. You've spent much time in the hospital this past year and you've had more struggles than anybody on earth should have to endure. :(
My heart truly goes out to you and I pray these tests will lead to a plan of action to get you out from under this horrid pain you've been battling....
You are so strong in all of this and it's high time you get the relief you need and deserve. I continue to pray for you....I lift you up to God and ask that He puts a healing touch on you very very soon....

Rae

Got results
 
Hi guys,

My Consultant called in yesterday evening and gave me some results of the MRI. I have an impingement on the L5 root which is causing the numbness and pain in my left leg.
He is to refer me to an ortho asap to see what he thinks if doesn't want to do anything then he's going to refer me to another hospital, to an ortho there that he's hoping will do something. I asked what the impingement was likely to be and he said scar tissue from my first surgery.

So that's my news and for me it's a big answer to something that has been annoying the hell out of me and I'm happy that finallay something is happening.


Some news finally

Sinéad xxxxx

Neadi
 
No Skype, no text, no email, I am near to hopping a flight to check on two dear friends, Neadi and Karen [it is 3 am here and I am doing this by touch, so forgive my lack of the proper accent mark]. Oh, how I wish the Concorde still flew, for I would go. Three hours NY to Shannon. But that is history.

Please by God know I am worried for my friends. You text each other, let one another know I am on my knees for you. Prayer helps, and this I offer for God is great beyond measure....... beyond measure. I have each of you on the tip of my thought and tongue [OK, along with a LOT of other people too, but you KNOW]. Next time we are going to exchange PM with cell numbers so I may text you. Rae knows how I reach out in CARE and I am very much just wanting just to lay a cool washcloth on your foreheads, each of yours, Neadi and Karen, to be at your side and show to your beleagured eyes I am with you in spirit and GIVING constant novenas.

Rae said it most beautifully, I am but an echo, resounding across the great sea which separates us. When I am able to pull through with one of my newest inventions and cash begins to accumulate with speed, do know Cleo and I will establish a foundation, the purpose of which is to PUSH care in newer directions. I may purchase Boston Scientific outright and take it private [I hope their Board of Directors is reading this post, because they will be shaken to their soles of their feet] because a privately run great company can be steered more directly toward the care I have not successfully influenced here or via my thread. We MUST fix this sort of thing. I am now reaching out to billionaires I know who could initialize capitalization of my newest invention which according to a brilliant nephew of mine is "a rock star invention" and I intend to hire his talented engineer brain away from Cisco, sorry Cisco, because I will need engineers surrounding me to bring the invention to pass.

Oh, and I never idly diddle away my thoughts on drivel or minutiae which are valueless, for God has purpose for me on this place of pain. I now begin to see a window of opportunity opening as I reach out to billionaires who invest, Warren Buffet may be next, for I can make the connection, Phil Anschutx another, because these are people who are focused business people, and one a man of faith, who sees the hand of God. Imagine what we may do with $1trillion to help conquer pain....... No jest here, because none of you deserve a pitiful soul yanking your chain. All I ask is prayer focused on helping me follow God to carpe diem with this concept. Greatness lies here, which will encircle the globe and people will affirm it with their purchases, driving revenue.

THEN, THEN, watch out Boston Scientific, for you are my target of choice, and I will come through the markets sweeping up shares, properly of course, so I can take the firm private. I am skilled in this kind of endeavor. Then we put patients into the drivers seats around the world, FDA be dammed as a stream, a mere trickle of water, our Trials and Proof of Concept being beta tested on real people who flock to its call because people of this forum become in charge, and the world will be amazed as patients one by one, then millions by millions receive the CARE THEY HAVE ALWAYS DESERVED. God has me focused, and I worry not, for He will make all things possible as this endeavor is surrendered to His glory through my company Inspri. We will conquer unrelenting pain becasue God wants this to be so...... else, I would not be so driven by His light. Imagine Moses, who was taken aside into God's boardroom for a personal one on one session for the plan to prosper a nation of His children.

Now You who here are gathered, form a new nation, conceived on the internet, and dedicated to the ethernet proposition that God has grown tired of watching His precious children writhe in pain. I have wondered what God had in store for me while this process has worked its way through my body. Knowing I am unique among three in the world who have delighted in programming ourselves the stim in our bodies.

Man's ears have deafened to the clear word I send out to involve patients. Therefore I have been propelled beyond mere small affairs to the means to touch great fortunes and suggest paltry investment [in their eyes] leads to the single amassing of human capital great enough in history to overcome nations, markets, corporations, and regulation to function in the cloud of the internet to render technology more inexpensively and properly to erradicate pain BY PERSONAL PATIENT INVOLVEMENT. My goal, simple, be gone with impediments to helping people. operate internationally where world attention is grasped and held entranced while the witness is borne to a clear means to better manage pain by involving the patient.

Pray with me if you will for the launching of an invention yet in the drawing board of my mind where it is absolutely safe from prying eyes. Secrecy is the best means to development, deployment, marketing and profit beyond wildest dreams so my true goal of SEIZING the means to help those whom I most care about for free in clinics which are foundation funded, beyon the reach of Pelosi Care, beyond the reach of UK socialized medicing. Pray for the means to bring this to reality because inventions God has blessed me to develop fund all of this. I do not care to be wealthy. Thsi is not my goal. Sharing the wealth in means to bring care, proper care, supervised care under a company I absolutely control because it is beyond the clutches of Wall Street and investor temperament and dedicated to God's hope for brighter tomorrow where pain brings far too much suffering is my goal.

I drive a 1995 collectible Chrysler automobile. That is enough excitement for me. Fortunes are meant to be shared, the reason Pharoahs missed the point and created elaborate tombs to "take it with them", the reason Elvis is buired in a pink Cadillac [I neither know nor care whether it is true] a metaphor of wealth hoarding gone mad. We follow a president [small p intended] who says distribute the wealth in America so all may share. I reply, put America back to work because people are helped to feel better, because fortunes are not squandered in lame efforts to minimize taxation just for the sake of accumulation. Instead follow the path of God, and utilize wealth properly to create foundations controlled for the greater good of the suffering. Provide for free the care which delivers people into the workplace where they may feel enabled, emboldened, RESTORED, and freed from pain so life is so much more worth the living honoring God.

So, a tiny, ultra simple invention which may generate trillions of dollars may be the catalyst to form foundations to bring into fruition care for masses of hurting people for free. Government astonished for it no longer has to squabble meaninglessly over who is right, because foundations have rendered them useless except to build sewers, roads, and clean water supplies- the stuff of proper government function? Leave medical care to foundations run by people whom I trust personally from this forum who, knowing pain personally, will take deep personal interest in helping others find freedom in free care for their needs because a simple invention purchased by almost all people covering the planet seeded the fortune ceded back to the world overcoming insurance companies [what woudl they do] overcoming political hot potato health programs because private foundations replaced them [oh what would they do].

I trifle not. I never do. God does not present me with ideas to squander. He delivers them to me for a purpose. Read Jeremiah 29:11 then join me in prayer and let us see with true hope in the Great I AM precisely what He has in mind. I recall, Jesus came to earth NOT proclaiming kingdoms here on earth, but storing up riches in Heaven, I see visions of Heaven in my dreams. Nest semester, I am teaching a class on Heaven partially based on C.S. Lewis, but more properly based on God's revelation to me. We are NOT to store up vast fortunes here on this planet, for moth and rust corrupt them and God's children are not thus served. We are to give a cloak where it is needed, a meal where is will remove starvation, heal where ever we may, help people become so filled with blessings they cannot help but fall to their knees and praise God regardless of their fundamental faith brand. Let them all destroy weapons, forget war, praise God in unison, for God is God all around this globe, then let work brought here on the leading edge of trillions of dollars be put to use demonstrating to all humankind God is love regardless of the name by whick He is known, regardless of governments for they are always and to the beginnig of history corrupt, let us pray for God's greatness spring into action above world government and lead the way to BLESSINGS for everyone..... starting with each of my friends here in my place of safety shaing a vision.

So I am human, and I do have my biases for friends whom I know struggle with interminable pain, I want to sit in Eva's home and scratch Olie gently behind the ear and see a broad amile on Eva's face because she is no longer hurting, I want to sponsor the greatest party at Pooh's pond where Rae and I sing songs of praise to God because it is good, right, and proper. I want to purchase a Concorde to deliver friends Jenna, Jackiey, Sinead, Karen to the party duly flying subsonic once American airspace is penetrated so no one complains their dishes rattled. I want Kelly, our newest family member to be so surrounded by care that all fear melts away from her sould because God cared for her so personally for her as to help her feel peace as to Know deep within her soul....... it is good, and God is mightly, assuring all will be well.

I WANT FIONA AND NEW FRIEND DINAH WHOM NONE OF YOU HAVE YET MET, TO LEAD DISCUSSIONS REGARDING THE CARE AND SUPPORT NOT ONLY OF THE PAINED BUT OF THE CAREGIVERS.

And courtesy of God, I want to foot the bill when the largest party ever hosted in Nowhere Nebraska descends upon that pretty little town as God is praised into the night as the principal cause for our release from pain.

How about it? This is a lot of prayer. You can all handle it. And.... And God is with us when we join across faith lines to proclaim His name in myriad languages seeking His good word for the deliverance of His faithful.....

Martin Luther King had a Dream... a good and honorable dream.

I have a plan, a God inspried plan.... time to put it into motion so all of the above becomes reality.

I am praying, are you?

Hi Mark

I'm just getting ready to go to sleep when I thought I'd check my email, I do have email by the way, wow what a long message, I've read through half of it and I'll read the rest later. Thank you for your thoughts and prayers and I cannot forget about all of those wonderful ideas. I do think putting those of us who suffer a great deal of pain into the driver seats of these companies and those like yourself who are skilled and capable of running these companies at the helm as other wise it would run down and made a balls of. We. could add an element of support to patients who phone in too.

I'm going to sleep now, I hope tomorrow I will have a surgeon to perform this surgery I need to remove that impingement/scare tissue what ever it is!

Nigh night

Sinéad xxxx :)

Mark56 03-15-2012 08:22 PM

Such Second Time Around Surgery
 
Dear Sinead- By now you are fast asleep and hopefully soon will be rolled to the theatre. The work to remove tissue impinging the nerve is easily handled. To tell you the truth, my second deep invasive surgery was to remove bone which grew from my fusion. The surgery went well, the impingement was removed, and I healed well. Then I was back at a beginning point from which my care could proceed.

Please may you be wrapped in the grace of God as you experience this surgery, and may your healing be complete.

Rrae 03-15-2012 09:51 PM

Mark :Red eyes: ..... your post up yonder has me head a reelin !

Now I can't find my toupee :icon_eek:

I shall pray for you and your endeavors!

Rae
:hug:

I don't really wear a toupee. :icon_biggrin: (yet, anyway)

Mark56 03-15-2012 10:27 PM

Neither do I
 
Nope, no toupee here either, just grey hair..... you have actually seen it a few times.....

I love driving through Totoland..

And the other, even with head a reeling, it is absolutely for real, and it works....... it works. Imagine a $1trillion bank account, imagine purchasing Boston Scientific, imagine forming a foundation for the assistance of folks like ginnie, like eva, like sophie, like saffy, like tara, like you, like everyone else.

God says faith of a mustard seed will move mountains. I want to move a mountain range on behalf of God the Almightly.

Following... following..... following,
Praying,
Please pray with me,
