And Again

Our daycare provider, Becki, just called back. Her uncle, who was in a car accident earlier tonight, passed away just now. Please pray for the Andrews family. Just last month, Becki and her mother Wilma lost their sister / daughter Teresa. And this makes about the fifth or sixth death in their family this year.

Perspective

Your perspective changes when a love one undergoes a medical procedure. My wife Sonja will be undergoing a cardiac catheterization on Friday. Please be in prayer for her, her doctor, the nurses and others involved. We have to be there around 6:15 am EDT.

Stop! Don't Touch That Bag of Doritos

You are looking at (the blog of) the poster child for You Can't Eat Just one. I was diagnosed with Celiac Disease (autoimmune disorder for wheat gluten) back on March 5, 2009 (after being suspected of having it in 1999 but told not to worry about changing my diet). Since then, I been eating a lot of gluten-free (GF) food, whatever I can get my hands on. The kickers have been Butterfingers and most any variety of Doritos (except the original - check the ingredients). So, now I need to lose some weight.

Monday, I am going to Physicians Weight Loss Center to see if I can get some help. There is a Christian dietitian (I think - dietitian, not Christian) there who from what I hear from others and over the phone is eager to help. The fee doesn't hurt either but I don't care. I need to be healthier for my family. I'm looking forward to being so.

Who is Jesus?
