Prayers for her speedy recovery, Robert. I have found that if I wait until my pain is so bad, that it takes longer for relief after taking them. Blessings.

This topic reminded me of a humorous phrase from my flying days: It's hard to soar like an eagle when you fly with turkeys.

Good morning Col Burroughs and all of my brothers and sisters here on VFV. I have enjoyed flying from a very young age. My Dad was a private pilot and we used to fly as often as he could afford it. When my flag is folded, I intend to fly away with the Lord and be with Him thru all eternity. Have a blessed day today and always.
