4 egg white omelette with onions, mushrooms, crab, and sour cream (good protein)

Yogurt 4oz

Dinner:

Shrimp  and rice.  With mushroom and onion salad

Just found out my biological father that I've been close to know for three years is in the emergency room with Chest Pains and had a heart attack.  They have move him up to the East Campus at the no Hospital here in Pocatello, the Cardio Unit.

 Now my Father-in-law and Father are in the hospital with heart attacks.  God bless them  I'm very frustrated I can't see them because of my Whit Blood Count.  But God is in control and my faith is real strong. 

You have to wake up every morning and give everything to God.  Improve-repeat-improve that's what I'm doing and also praying for my father-in-law and father.

Biological dad had a stent put in the artery in the heart.  He will be released tomorrow.  He's doing better and recovering well.

 Ditto with me on the body and exercising.

 Father-in-law still the same with the blood clots not getting any better.  Just don't know what's going to happen.  I'll you have is faith and just trusting in God.

Day 15 Got my staples out and the X-rays on the femur look good. Still very slow recovery with the femur. The Doctor said no weight bearing for, 4 weeks because of the crack below the femur break. They don't want that to crack to continue in the knee. Right now two screws are blocking it to heal it. I have a total of 5 screws in the femur with the titiainum rod. Ribs still really sore and the pelvis still progressing and the swelling in the stomach is still there. Also got the stitches out of the right elbow today. I still have a low white blood count and its got the Doctor baffled and concerned. She's discussing my issue with a specialist from out of state. I will know more tomorrow on what they decide to do about that. Their really concerned if I was to get sick, it could be fatal to me. But whatever happens God's in control. 

I'm now working on stretching the femur and expanding the range with no weight. I will improve each day through the pain.

Same as day before.  Stretching and exercising the leg.  I didn't sleep good because the leg hurt and was very swollen and tight because of the exercising.

Still same as before other than still stretching and bending the knee.  Even though my White Blood count is low the Doctor gave me clearance to leave the house now.  The first place I went is to Taco Bell with Barry and had one of their healthy Fresco Grilled Chicken Burrito's.  

 Ribs are still painful.

We had a Prophetic Conference for our church and surrounding Churches that started last night and today we had the first service at 10am.  We left there and I finally got to watch my daughter play high school soccer since I missed them all because of my accident.  She scored two goals and they won.  I sat in my wheelchair the whole time and at all the events of the day.

 Then at 6pm we had church again.  By the end of the day I was wiped out with getting in and out of the truck and then doing my leg exercises.  I really hit them hard and pushed hard today.  Probably overdoing the exercise a bit.  But it's getting more and more flexible.  You just have to get past the pain.

 Anyone want to see my surgery photo's with the rod and screws? I don't now if that's something Sasha would want on the blog.
