This week I lost all my hair. I had the cute haircut a month
ago. Then it started falling out, like we knew it would. So I had my kind
friend give me a close buzz cut. Then, the next day, it continued to fall out in
clumps and looked very mangy. So, Saturday night Matt helped me shave it
completely. It’s quite a change! But thank the LORD He gave me a good skull.

Saturday morning, early, Tim and I drove to Talladega to a
Breast Cancer Survivor’s event. It was sponsored by Chevy, so the event
included a “drive-along” with a NASCAR driver. For those of you who don’t know,
NASCAR is the organization that races stock cars around oval tracks all over
the US. It’s a big deal – no, a HUGE
deal in the Southern U.S. So, when the opportunity arose to participate in this truly Southern event, I could not say no. I took Tim
with me, who was keen to meet the two NASCAR drivers we knew we would meet.
Ryan Newman (#31) – who came in 5th at the big race on
Sunday, was my driver around the track. In the video below he and fellow driver Austin Dillon (#3) were talking about their first lap in the pace car. We went 160 miles per hour! It was
crazy fast! And a ton of fun. Better than any rollercoaster. Really.

Lisa, estás guapa igual, pues tu belleza está en ti. Esto es lo que mi sobrina me escribió a mi (mas o menos) cuando volví a casa con mi parálisis facial tras la operación. Con un parche en el ojo y la cara plana en mi lado izquierdo, sin oído de ese lado y con un montón de problemas para hablar, comer, ... Pero, el Señor me sacó también de allí, y hoy en día puedo llevarlo mucho mejor, eso sí, tras otras 6 operaciones. Ahora a mis 62 años, ya no importa tanto, pero cuando me pasó tenía 36. Y fue muy duro, como lo es para ti ahora. Pero también de esto se sale. Ten confianza, pues el que te sostiene, sigue teniendo todo el poder.
ReplyDeleteGracias, Eunice. Gracias por el aliento que me da tus palabras. :-)
