My wife and I were fishing from the bank at Cave Run Lake in Morehead, KY, in 1994 or 1995, and she was bitten by a brown recluse in the "groin area" (worst place a woman could be bitten, and that's as specific as I'll get). She was very fortunate she got to the doctor, but that bite caused her to have to go through several rounds of antibiotics. Thoughts and prayers for him for sure. It was awful.

Is that you in your Avi?

My buddy is feeling a little better. They made two cuts, and drained his hand. I called him right after the gym, but he was asleep and I talked to his wife. She said he had streaks running up his arm, and that's exactly how my dad was when he was bit by a recluse. He woke up and called me back, and said he wasn't burning up his arm anymore. They're giving him antibiotics, and a surgeon is going to look at it tomorrow. Hopefully it'll heal up, and he won't need anything else done.

But probably feels a lot better. Hope so, anyway.

I imagine they’re calling this cellulitis, which is a lot better than it could be. My mom was hospitalized twice with sepsis after infected cat bites turned into cellulitis, and then the infection spread through her bloodstream and triggered shock. (This is the cat that now lives with us.🤪)

Don’t dawdle with bites and other wounds that start turning red, swollen, and hot. They can take off fast! Glad he’s getting better.

Ha
I thought you called me that because Dale Cooper from Twin Peaks was my avi then. His doppelganger on the newest season was "Mr. C." My username is from the character David Lynch played on the show.
I was way off-base. That is often the norm, though. Ha

Please continue to pray.

One of the twins at my school is back to being ventilated 100%.

The other one, the doctors believe, has blood clots in his legs.

They are still in Niswonger in JC. They weren't able to be transferred to Vanderbilt.

That is the latest.

I never told you boys but Tuesday when they started talking about cutting me open there was a nurse who wanted to use needled to drain my hand. I was hurting so bad that I was asking God what I needed to do I was afraid. A few minutes later they came in and said a dr was willing to come it to do it. I was still afraid. Especially when he told me what ge was going to do and things were going so fast my mind couldn't process it. He walked out to get prepped. I was a nervous wreck. I texted you two and you both responded. I laid my head down on the bed and could finally breath. I wasn't scared any more. It's awesome that God blessed me with two friends that I have enough faith in that I can lay my head down and know will be praying on my behalf. Even more awesome is the feeling of Gods spirit coming over you giving comfort in time of need. I talked to the lord that whole morning. I knew he
was there for me. But it was a big comfort knowing you two were talking to God as well on my behalf.




The above he just texted me. He sent it to me, and our other buddy that lives here. I think it's awesome how much comfort it can bring someone when they know you're truly praying for them. I only share that to say this, you guys have helped me more than I can ever say, and I thank you for it.
