It begins tomorrow. My weeks long stretch of seeing too many doctors. It begins with going to my Rheumatologist tomorrow. Then a pre surgery physical with my GP March 2nd and knee surgery March 11. I don’t even want to think about the four weeks or so of physical therapy.
I had a comforting thought, well comforting for me anyway. What if I died on the operating table? It would be a good way to go to heaven because I would not experience any pain in the process and wake up in the presence of Jesus.
I do not think that will happen because I believe God has more for me to do in this life.
Did I mention that I am not fond of going to doctors?
Perhaps the worst part of my upcoming surgery is the whole no driving for six weeks thing. I live life on the go visiting people, teaching classes, ministry etc. Oh yes, and coffee shops. Being stuck at home for six weeks except to go to physical therapy or church on Sunday thanks to friends giving me rides is a thought that causes me to not want the surgery-almost.
When I say life on the go, it includes the worship music playing in my car, so I can pray along the way. It includes divine appointments. It includes so much of my life following Jesus. Six weeks oh my.
At least I have a break from classes for three weeks after the surgery. I can Uber to go to the college after that. Teaching for me will still be possible at that point.
So tomorrow it starts. Too many doctors.
Thank you for reading. God Bless.
