I have always wanted this page to be a pure gift to you. I have resisted efforts to monetize my site on Facebook. When I added SubStack I was touched by the people who offered to pay for my posts; but, again, I want the posts to be gifts for you so I have not claimed any of that money. I just want to post to make your day a little better.
As far as an health update, we are still waiting to get rid of my cough so they can do heart surgery. That makes giving you a time table impossible. This is going to be a long hall and I really don’t want to spend my posts, or even my own awareness, on my health problems. You have enough problems with everything that is happening in the world.
So that I don’t have to bother you with personal updates on this page I am letting you know the church has set up a caring bridge for me. If you go to caringbridge.org and type in my name you should be able to find updates there. The page asks for money but people have already given more than enough for my food and supplies.
As an officially verified nerd, nothing makes me happier than having time to think big thoughts. That is very hard to do with my schedule as a minister. Ironically, being bedridden has allowed me more time to think about my book and work on it internally.
Thank you for your concern but, as I mentioned a week or so, I am peaceful and happy. There is no point in worrying about me. My posting will be spotty for a while I will post when I have the energy. Again, thank all of you for your concern.
