Hey everyone,
I hope once again that I am posting in the right place. I just wanted to let everyone know how Keenan is doing. He had his back surgery yesterday and it was quite extensive. He was in surgery for 6 hrs and then in recovery for 4 hours. The surgeon says that his surgery went extremely well. It took a long time because his back is so seriously damaged. But we are hoping after recovery this surgery is really going to help him become functional again without all the pain. It will be a long recovery, but I asked the doctor today if we will make hunting season this August and he thinks we can shoot for it. :) I actually explained that all Keenan needed to do was guide for me and call the elk in and I would do the rest!! Ha ! Ha! I mean we could camo spray paint his walker and make little hooks for his bugle , etc.
He is in alot of pain, but he did get up and walk today. He is a tough cookie! This is where the stubborness and strongwill pays off.  I hate to admit that, because he is a stubborn one.Ha! Ha!I am hoping he can come home in the next few days, but we will just have to see how he progresses. I also have to mention, the doctor said that he will be an inch taller now. Look out!!
Thanks everyone for all the prayers and support. I will take good care of my hubby... we gotta make the tipi bash next year in Tennessee.
Also, a quick note on my dad. We will be seeing the oncologist tommorrow to find out what his treatment options for his cancer are. One day at a time!! Blessings and prayers for all of you that had flooding troubles back there. LuLyn

     Keenan, prayers, and good wishes to you and your Father n Law.  Attitude, attitude, attitude!  Makes the difference!

    Tiller, do I get the impression that you are about to create a new scented soap, just for El D?  Something on the line of " EU DE Pasture " ?  Or Essence of Boef Pate' " ?  Hey, do you make any soap with "Dragon's blood" blood in it?  It is sap, or oil from the Brazilian tree, called el Draco.  Or dragon. It is red in color.  Hence the name dragon's blood. ;) It is really quite an invigorating scent.  8)  It would make a great aroma therapy scent.   I bought some at a pow wow down here, a while back.  Been trying to find more, and found a store that carries that brand.  Kinda pricey, but if you want to dance, you have to pay the piper, right?  Lulyn, take care of yourself also.  I hope you have some help now and then. I hope you do get to go hunting this year, and you get a "Royal" !! :o  Even If you have to put him in the toboggan, and tow him to the spot, with the four wheeler! ;D  But then again, he just might like that, and want to do it again next year. ::)  Uh......when you get one, who is going to skin, and quarter it up, and haul it back?  You might have to dump him off the sled, and load the elk up, and take it back to the house, and then come back for him. ::)  That is if you get the meat, hung up, and get yourself some coffee, or tea, and still have time to get back up to him before dark..... ;D  That way, he won't be milking his temporary condition . ;)  He'll just have to hurry up and heal up, and take care of the elk himself. ;)  Take care, and again, prayers, and good wishes, to Keenan, and your Dad.

Wayne, never heard of Dragons Blood before. Sounds kinda interesting though!

El D, may get a real special soap one of these days. L'eau de Moo? ;-)

Hope your feeling better Keenan! We have got to get together again and do some knapping, archery and bow building.
