It has been over three months since I last posted. I doing some whining and move on.
Back in October, I went to sleep on a Sunday night. I woke the next morning screaming in pain. My wife didn’t know what to do to help me so she called 911.
The ambulance took me to the ER. They checked me out and sent me to the hospital.
I was in the hospital for six days. On the fourth day. I had a near death experience. I was laying on my bed, and the nurse left me check the main monitor in the other room. She left instantly and came back with three doctors and several nurses.
They all were checking my blood pressure monitor. What happened was that my blood pressure dropped from a normal 125/65 in less that five minutes to 80/50. They did some things, and my blood pressure went back to normal eventually.
I was told later that I was going to die if it kept dropping.
Two days later I was sent to a rehab facility. There I learned to walk again with a walker. It was slow and painful. I progressed a little each day. I was working with PT and OT specialists. They did a wonderful job helping me.
I got out of rehab 30 days later, and was sent home. That was a total of one month!
I have done a lot of progress since then. This is my first time at the computer in three months.
I thank all the people who worked with me to get me back to a living person.

I thought I would start sharing some of the wonderful endorsements my upcoming book, Signs of Hope for the Military: In and Out of the Trenches of Life, is getting. The book is stirring quite a buzz.
In the current conditions of our military, there is a need to find realistic affordable sources to reach out and help our veterans and current military. Signs of Hope for the Military: In and Out of the Trenches of life, is that source. Doug Bolton spends many chapters on showing the veterans and military ways to cope in this not so friendly world. Sadly, he feels and knows of the pain from his volunteer service and sacrifices for our great country first hand. Being a seasoned registered nurse and a battlefield Air Force flight nurse, I have seen many young men and women coming home sick, injured wounded and highly depressed. This book is a must for many. I highly recommend this book without hesitation to all those who have served and currently serving. I am also advocating for the loved ones and families to read this read, as well.
