I Fell

Well, today I fell, face down on the hard concrete. The crowd called 911. My lip was cut all the way through to the inside, my front teeth were pushed up into my head and were in pieces, my whole body bruised, swollen and hurting. See how swollen my lip is, that is 5 stitches you are looking at. I am so blessed that I did not break anything or crack my head!!! Anyway, they are sending me to an oral surgeon on Monday, so I will not be able to visit or comment. I am hoping to continue with part two of my last post very soon! In true blogger fashion, as soon as we got home, I checked to make sure my camera was not broken, then had Phil take this picture. Now I am taking more pain pills and off to bed, see you later, my dears!!!


“If God hadn’t been there for me, I never would have made it. The minute I said, “I’m slipping, I’m falling,” your love, God, took hold and held me fast. When I was upset and beside myself, you calmed me down and cheered me up.”
Psalm 94

Oh no, you poor thing!!! Good that you were quickly taken care of though. Hope you can get some rest today and I keep my fingers crossed for your appointment with the oral surgeon. Hope you find something you can eat/drink - my own recent teeth trouble was nothing compared to this but I can imagine... Lots of love to you!

Ann said...

Oh no. Thank goodness for cell phones that people can immediately call 911. That looks really painful. You are a true blogger though thinking to check the camera and get the picture for the post.

Hi Ginny Wow! Well that is a mouth and it does look very painful. Today in church they said this 'everyone is life at one time or the other experiences pain, however it is how one handles it, that we become stronger'. Lean on God's provision at this time and He will see you through. praying for you today. Margaret

Hope you get better quickly. Kristel is a person who easily falls. When she get a bit tired I have to say careful every five minutes or she falls on every bump or uneven pavement. Good luck recovering.

Greetings,
