Day 54...3rd day in Ruston! Hospital time out!

This blog is for Wednesday. I woke up and got ready, had breakfast at the motel, then headed to downtown Ruston to take some pictures, then headed to The Health Hut.

After arriving at The Health Hut I helped them load some things up for the expo. After arriving at the events center at the Library, which is a beautiful place, we arranged the tables and chairs in the different sections for the expo.

During this time I got my results of a courtesy checkup that showed my hemoglobin level was half of what it should be...so off to the ER. I went to have it checked again and was admitted and received two units of blood. Well, this morning the Dr came in and told me I still needed more blood because it only brought the level up to 7. It was 6.1 when they first checked it.  The normal is 12-14. So today I will get two more.

Then in the morning I have to have a GI and a colonoscopy to see if I have any blood loss from those area's. I have a chronic blood loss and am Iron deffeciant that has been an ongoing thing and my body has been conditioned to it. That's why I have been able to do the walk thus far. I feel fine and there is no need to worry. God brought me here for a reason and purpose and will take care of me no doubt.

I look forward to receiving the help I need so I may continue my walk and journey. It is and has been a true blessing from God and I am  thankful for being able to do this walk. God bless everyone, thoughts and prayers are with you all. See you on the road soon!

I JUST FEEL THE URGE TO WALK!

  1. Hello it's me again Margaret! I love that I got flowers today! Did I ever tell you how much I love flowers? Well, I do! The house with the tree reminds of one that was in Princeton, but they tore the tree down. The big white house is gorgeous. Ruston looks like a nice place. They sure have been good too you! God bless them all, and God bless you, and God bless God for putting you where you needed to be! Love you Mike! May the covenant blood of Jesus surround and protect you, and may his healing powers touch you with supernatural healing. Only ask and ye shall receive! If you pray and believe that you have already received it shall be yours! Gods Grace Is Amazing!

Scared the heck outta me then, now you are trying to do it again.I cannot tell you how thankful I am you are where you are, how unbelievably incredible that they should give you this screening when you needed it most. Sure hope your tank gets topped off good and stays on Full from now on. Glad you are taking care of yourself and perhaps your shins will be thankful for the rest too. Praying for your health and well being and safe travels my friend. love the pics as usual. And hi Margaret, I would argue about which of us loves flowers and plants more, but well, I won't since you seem to be such a nice and wonderful person. Keep us posted Mike, I will be busy worrying....as usual.
