A real report

[dr__r (dr__r)]

I spoke to Neil a few minutes ago. He wasn't at the doctors office, he was in the hospital.

They let him out about 12:00

He told me he talked to Pastor Robinson about 5 minutes before walked into the hospital.

Please keep him in prayer.

I wish there was a thread just "questions".I have asked many questions and get no response. I was wounded for 9 years there and yrs. afterwards.
Where is P.Stevens daughter? she used to sing and married Shawn. Is she still in Balt.? Roberta Hall, a beautiful singer, who Pastor was enamorderd with before Barbara came along. What about Pat Dykty who also sang. Where is information that Allen Lang was paid a settlement? Do both Carl and Barbara have drug problems? I would like some answers I need to heal too.

Actually, Ralph Wells did answer that on another thread - I believe it was the thread where you actually asked that question.

Dawn - feel free to start a new thread...anyone can.

For the past four years I have worked as a BMET at JHBMC. One of the units I suppport is the Burn Center.

My first encounter with the Burn Unit was as an on-call Chaplain for Bayview in the early and mid nineties. As Bayview has one of the most respected burn units on the Eastern Seaboard I have seen many very serious cases over the past dozen years. Some are burned so badly they do not make it!!!

While making rounds this morning there was a medical team changing dressings on a person who has burns over about 60% of their body including most of the lower extremeties. It is not a pretty sight! Much seared skin and flesh is removed no matter how careful the team tries to be. The contrast of the blackened skin and the raw pink flesh underneath tests the resolve of even the most seasoned personnel. It is certainly not pretty, but necessary to the healing process.

Then I thought of the many of us, some out, some in, some in the process. I thought of how much we are like the burn patients.

Some have had all of their plastic surgery and are looking pretty good, most of the scars are gone, many are even trying to help others.

Others have healed from the burn, but the scars are there in all of their ugly reminder, and yet some of them are trying to help ones who are in earlier stages of healing.

Still others are in the wound phase. The pain is excruciating and the wound is ugly beyond belief, but the process has began. They have no energy or will to help others, they do not even know if they want help.

The final group are the ones still in shock. They look at the burn and it is swollen, red, and fluid is beginning to build under the skin in it's feeble attempt to protect the flesh from the burn. Numbness makes the pain not yet a reality, the burn looks surreal, but we know that the pain will follow.....

And that is how I see all of us,,, "Lord, let me be a little kinder.."

Blessings,

Ralph

If you look at all the threads listed, there are a few towards the bottom that say 'Archives'
When you open up an Archive you find another long list of threads that have since been taken off this present board. A few of those threads refer to Carl and Barbara and some of the questions you posed. Also the same with the Langs story. Get a cup of coffee first, because there is a lot to read.
The Archives are where you will find the beginning of the current 51,OOO posts from the last year.
