It’s the “O” word…

And I don’t mean Oprah (although perhaps she could relate to this…who knows?).

Tonight I find myself humming the tune to “Dry Bones” as I received the report that my bones are starting to thin…osteopenia in my hip….

So thin hair…thin bones…oh for a thin body!  May this be the year!

And for those of you humming along, for your humming and singing pleasure here’s a great site that even plays it - ever so melancholic - and has the words too - http://kids.niehs.nih.gov/lyrics/bones.htm - it’s a pitiful, sad rendering.  You simply MUST listen to it (and sing along while you’re at it!).  It’ll crack you up!  And it goes on and on and on…

I am learning so much about anatomy and physiology and pharmacology as I move along in this process of living with transplantation. 

But I think I want to read the Ezekial passage now, too, and thank the Lord for my ridiculously LONG bones even if they are thinning.   Gotta get those weights out now and get serious about weight training!

Thanks for reading.
