sweet to the soul and healing to the bones."

OAP: So my nose has been totally screwed up my whole life. I have this thing called a deviated septum that makes me able to only breathe out of one side of my nose, it switches between left and right nostrils every couple hours. Breaking it twice in sports didn't help. I've had 2 surgeries on it so far, one to fix a bad break and one to try and straighten my septum in hopes of fixing my ability to breathe. Unfortunately the second one, which i had done in december, was an epic fail and my breathing was never corrected. So right now im about to drive down to a hospital in gilroy for about the umpteenth time to get more xrays, and possibly schedule further surgery...Woohoo. Other people ive talked to with this problem have never gotten better after years of surgery and thousands of dollars and other crap so ive been really bitter about it. And stress from math finals and ap tests and football and life in general has been building up too, ive just been pretty grumpy lately. But like the proverb says, one person can come in and just change all that and heal the soul with a few caring words and empathy and compassion. And then it doesn't seem all that bad. I love it.

Prayer: Thank you God. Thank you so much
