A wonderful Sunday
It's been a good day!
Each day a little of my strength returns and I'm feeling more and more "normal" athough I tire easily. I look toward a warm bed several times a day as a timely refuge from the cold feet and hands that do still occasionally plague.
Today I made myself available to play for church! YUP! I played the whole service without needing any rest! There *were* a few strange notes, instigated mostly from playing in a different pair of shoes. When I went to get my organ briefcase I discovered that I had only one shoe, so I played in a "new" pair. Those who are organists know how that would confuse LOL!
All in all, I figure no one noticed - much ;-)
I was honored after church to be invited by Mrs. Phoebe Herring, one of the church members, to lunch at Black Knight Country Club ( a favorite place to be invited to eat) with her son David and another friend. The food was wonderful as usual, and I ate small amounts of what was legal and what I could manage.
This week brings a visit to my GP and back to Duke for checkups. I'm really pleased that I'm keeping things together as much as I can!
Perhaps endlessly, but I still reiterate how much I appreciate each of you. Your help with prayers and support as well as those of you who are quite hands-on with my care and ongoing recuperation is so much appreciated!
Thanks to all!

Hi Tim,
Paul and I are back in the States a day late but greatfully not a dollar short!
It has been amazing to follow your progress from South of the equator down Bolivia way. So far and yet so near. Can hardly wait to share a hug. Back at the organ at church ... amazing!!!
Tried to send a second comment from Tarija, but it didn't post. Will see if this works!
We expect to be in Church next Sunday.
Peace and prayers, Jo
Tim -
