I've preached one night in this event the past 2 years. Last year I had to sit down while preaching because of back problems. This year it looks like I won't get to be there at all.

I'm praying you will be able, sam. You have a kind and Godly heart and folks need to hear your testimony.

Torsemide. Also known as Demadex.

Right now, Sam, you need to take care of YOU! That is the most important thing you can do.

I am glad you are home and have been praying for you daily since i saw a post from you on facebook about 3 days before this thread came up.

yes, and the left leg is still very very sore.
The shingles are just scars, no bleeding or running or oozing but the leg is very sore. Using percocet to try to alleviate the pain. some times it works, some times it doesn't.

These are pictures from a couple days ago. I am walking with a walker but can only go for short periods of time and short distances. I am learning to put more weight on my legs (including the weaker left one with shingles) than on the walker. I am also trying to spend more than a couple minutes without hanging on.

Great to see you're doing better, sam. We miss your voice of reason on the forum, and look forward to seeing you posting more frequently.

Happy to see you up. Praying for a complete recovery.
