Make it a Happy New Year!

Lots of parties and social gatherings tonight,
BE safe!
I'm not even saying don't drink.
Knock yourself out.
But PLEASE don't drink and drive.
 
This is NOT fun AT ALL.
It only takes one time. 
I had done it hundreds of times before.
But just one night
Got me a lifetime of frustration and hardships.
Don't risk it.
 
Have a Happy New Year!

Please Pray

 
Yet ANOTHER swallow test scheduled for this Thursday.

Last week, even though I knew I might not like my answer (I really can't remember the last circumstance that I faced and questioned in recent years where I liked my answer), Haha 'twas a pretty intricately laced sentence I just wrote. Anyways, I asked "Will I have a feeding tube forever?" My speech therapist has always been pretty straightforward with me, not negative but more realistic. I shouldn't even be alive presently. I am, thank God for that. She responded: "Í can't answer that honestly without seeing the results from your next swallow study."

So please, please pray for good results. Pray again, if need be. I would like to model underwear someday, but that's not possible with a feeding tube. HA HA!  I'm really worried about this test on Thursday.  It takes literally two seconds to pray. 

"God please help Superman eat!"   Period.

Prayer works. I'm a living testament to that.
