Journal Entry March 3, 2011

"WOW" so much has happened since my last entry.......Ron had to have emergency surgery on Feb. 28th 2011 due to a blockage in his small intestine; leading up to this surgery I watched my strong sweetheart rapidly spiral down hill, I was so afraid for him. Not for myself however I had a peace that everything would be alright. It was very difficult to witness his pain and extreme discomfort. Ron, was throwing up at least 4 to 5 times a day (sometimes even more). When we arrived at Truman Medical Center we were able to go straight back thanks to Tiffany's clout. As family members and hosiptal staff came in to see or visit with Ron everybody pretty much thought this might be the last, of his days here on earth. He skin was a light gray and he was so dehydrated that his eyes were sunken in and he looked so very tired. When Ron received a Priesthood blessing from my brother John, It was reconfrimed to me yet again; that my sweet hubsand would make it through this surgery, and witness many more things "here" before he would be called home. My heart is so full of love for my Savior as I write these words, I am truly overwhelemed that tears of joy, and gradtiude stream down my cheeks. As the song states "I tremble to know of the love he has for me" I can honestly, humbly and sincerely say I do tremble every time I look at Ron and know of the Savior's tender mercies and love he has for our family, and grants us our desires and is our advocate to our Heavenly Father in our behalfs.
