Recovery Room Yoga

An hour and a half after surgery, Nancy is revved up and instigating chaos in the recovery room

The Lion pose, after eight and a half hours of tubes in my mouth, feels so good on my clenched jaw. And two days later, after the nurse turned off my fall alarm, the Cat and Cow poses were my only escape from the trap of my hospital bed.

Now that I'm home and can start working on balance, I need to relearn each of the poses like they are the first time, because my left side still isn't on the matrix. Lots to relearn!

This is another example of how God orchestrates all things in life to have a foundation full of tools to meet the next challenge with Him. God is good.

All the small things really do matter.

Thank you Adriene!

Holding Me

Before surgery, I prayed for some kind of visual of Jesus holding me during the surgery. I came to ask one of the nurses her name; her first and last names were the names of two of my very special friends. It was then that I saw my one friend's compassionate brown eyes, then felt my other friend's enduring support. The nurse's job at the time was to comfort me until I went under. 

God orchestrates the details!

First Things First

 All things may not seem to reconcile. Listen. You do not need them to reconcile.
