Man...did I ever have the most debilitating experience in my life. We're adding on an addition to our home and I was standing on the roof with my son and son in law went I was hit by a mac truck called vertigo. I'd heard of vertigo, but never in my wildest dreams was I prepared for this. I couldn't move my head of the roof. When it hit me, I immediately laid out out the roof and told my son SPencer the something was wrong. I didn't know it was vertigo. I was spelling my name and counting backwards...thinking I just had stroke or something. I could think just fine, but any time I tried to life my head off the roof...well...I don't need to tell to...I think you know. It took a half hour just to get me to the ground. My wife didn't know what to do...so my living room is filled parmedics and EMTs working on me and well...that was one week ago and after 3 days of being in the hospital, I still can't walk straight. It's getting better and the doctor said it would take about 3 weeks for me to back to normal. I missed one of my assignments last weekend, but they have rescheduled and I wasn't suppose to fly out yesterday for St. Louis, but hey...someone has to pay the bills and so I just asked the Lord to help and He did. Last night my friend (Terry Vik) and I did our drama tag team ministry in a church in St. Louis. I did most of my mine sitting down. This morning we teamed up again to do the full length play, The Prisoner of God at a seminary graduate school. My imbalance actually played nicely into my aging characterization of the Apostle Paul...so, you see it all works out for the good to them love the Lord. I hope no one ever has to deal with vertigo...it's almost as bad as passing a kidney stone....but that's another story for another time.
