I will be flying out to be with Dad Thursday... He is having a heart cath... Please pray for him and mom that God will get them up and mobile... It is a "Real Deal" for a man who is used to going like a banshee all his life to being slowed down at this stage...
If everything is fine I should be back home Friday night... Love you... JTM

Just a quick note
Mom says she is feeling better today. They changed her antibiotic. The place on the bottom of her foot grew out a different type of staph instead of staph aureous so this staph should be responsive to this new antibiotic. Mom said she is hoping to go home tomorrow or the next day.
Ethan said Papa is doing good. Said he is going to refuse dialysis there Friday and just come home because he said it takes too long there. I don't know what we'll do about giving him dialysis Friday, I guess we'll just have to work it out. Ethan is going to talk to him tonight about how we can work it. I will work tonight and tomorrow so I don't know what we will do about getting it all together. I was thinking he would have it there Friday and then make a batch Saturday and I would do a treatment Sunday and Monday since he is going back Tuesday, but I don't know now what we will do.
Be praying for a couple in our church that's little 3 year old son shot and killed himself yesterday while his mother was cleaning someone's house. He found a gun on the dresser and shot himself in the neck. He died in her arms before help could come. He was such a sweet little fellow. My heart is just broken for that family.
D'Ann, how many questions did you end up having to answer? I am putting you a little something in the mail. I hope you like it. I want one now for myself!!!
I love you all!

This morning
Left Mom in good spirits. Helped her get up last night. She is anxious to get back on her feet which is an improvement from last time.
Dad and Ethan made it to Jacksonville without any problems. I'll call to check on them later to see how everything is going.
Right now sleep is calling. Love you all!!!

Ready to Make Plans
Ethan finally had a chance to talk with Pastor today(er, um yesterday now I guess). He was very encouraged and said Pastor helped him a great deal and confirmed some things in him. So he is ready to get to his Uncle Tim.
Let me know some dates. I talked to Bobby and we can probably fly him out to you and then Bobby can see his retailers in Mississippi and swing over and pick him up. He will start school again on August 10th.
We have been having good church. A young man by the name of Bro. Kelly Holland has been here. And as I am typing this it just hit me who he is. I think this young man is the one whose father has the church in Glennville, GA. Is that right, Cyndi?
Anyway, what awesome services. We are getting very excited about the prospect of a building here. I think Bro. Wood is going to talk to Pastor and see about doing an offering for the chairs. We are going to buy a keyboard for the church, but in the meantime, I will probably bring mine over there and leave it to keep from hauling it back and forth.
I love you all. I will keep you posted. Give me an idea of dates and you guys let me know about Thanksgiving so I can find a place to book. Have a blessed day.

In Calgary...
I was sitting on the King's porch...checking messages, reading, generally enjoying the view and the climate...
It is 12 degrees Celsius or 53 degrees fahrenheit... A little overcast and breezy... Just splendid...
The King's home is on a hill overlooking the City of Calgary ( approximately 1 million population) and just to the west the Canadian Rockies... I wish I could transfer the weather and the view home...
I am lonely for my girls, that is the best view and one I don't have here... God bless...

Gettin' in the Groove
I have officially finished my first week back on the OB unit. I must say, other than the debilitating tiredness I feel pretty good about life at this moment.
After working Sunday night I saw a patient I had checked in Wal Mart (imagine that) and she waved and waved at me. And when I got to work last night one of the nurses kept saying how my patient from that morning and her family kept bragging on me. This was an element of my life that was missing and I'm glad to have it back.
It's going to take me a little time to get back into the swing since I have been sitting on the proverbial bench for 3 1/2 years now, but I don't think it's going to take me as long as I originally thought. I already feel comfortable like I have been bound but now I am loosed.
I haven't heard from my other little nurse, so I'm thinking all must be well in the CHF/Renal world. I'm excited to hear her stories and experiences from life in the trenches. I know she is picking it all up quick!
Cyndi left today, and I must say I felt very mournful and cried a lot *don't tell her that, OK?* She has gone back to her life and I should be glad since that means Dad and Mom are well enough to leave, but she stayed too long and I became accustomed to her presence. There is just something about knowing my brother or sister are right here that is so wonderful. And I am like Tim, except I think they all just need to move here so we can be together. Hey, we'd already have a congregation with all of us!!!
I am anticipating life taking a more predictable course and I will be glad to fit again instead of feeling like a square peg trying to fit the round holes in my life. I love you all so much...

Travel, travel, rush, rush, rush...
Sissy will be in Dallas tomorrow, coming home Friday evening. I am flying to Calgary for a "Harvest Weekend" Friday Morning and will be back in Louisiana Monday night. Bro. King wants Whit to go to Canada to their "Youth Congress" July 4th - 6th... Mom and Whit (maybe me too) are looking at going to Heritage in Colorado Springs in July...
Meanwhile, back at home Bro. Sibley our Adm. Pastor is in Texas somewhere until the 26th of June, leaving my young preachers, holding down the fort, this weekend...
Life is expedientially moving at an unrealistic pace...
Be careful on your way home, Cyndi... Come as soon as you can, Sheri... and wherever we travel, let us meet in the rapture... J. Tim
