That's very funny, BB. But on a more serious note, recently when I was laying on my back in the hospital getting ready for a back operation with IV tubes hooked into my arm, I did willingly sign a "living will." I would agree that living in a vegative state wouldn't be worth anything to me. I'd rather have my organs harvested. Maybe they would help someone who had a need.

But...thank God...the operation worked like it was supposed to and I feel like a man with a new life. Not until you lose your heath, or are about to, do you really appreciate life as it's supposed to be.

I know there's a lot of Gunandgame.com members who haven't been so lucky as me...and this is no laughing matter for them. I can honestly say that this morning while sitting in church that I prayed for the health all people who are in need...and that I thanked God for giving me back mine. What else can I say?

On July 12th I could only walk about 10 feet without sitting down in terrible pain. This morning I was able to walk two miles and have done so the last two days. If this isn't a miracle of God I don't know what is. Of course, I had great doctors and other health providers, and my wife I owe my life to for nursing me back during the first two weeks...but I definitely wake up thankful every day now for getting my life back together.
