Chris, I'm so sorry for all you have been through and then the death of your beautiful dog. I'm thankful that you have a great wife to help you. God is in control. And yes, He has a plan for each of us.

It's hard when we don't understand God plan. I was told my pastor these are the time when he is the closest to us and we are supposed to learn lessons. Glad your wife was able to help. Sorry about your best friend.

Chris, you brought a tear to my eye. Actually more than one. You have been through a lot health wise and then losing your buddy on top of it all seems unfair. I can sympathize after losing my best girl soon after surgery and went into serious despair. Eventually we... Read more.

Wow, you have been through a lot of medical adventures! Hopefully you are done with medical stuff ! I am so sorry about the loss of your dog. I know what a sad event that is…

Chris, we have a saying here that when someone has gone through the extent of your physical and emotional heartaches, you are beyond a "heart warrior", but are a "gladiator". I really want for you to get much better. So sorry about your best friend. #you.have.been.tested. Enough!

Keep on moving 👍🏻 and battling. You have a good attitude Chris. So sorry about your fur buddy.

Haven't checked in for awhile. 2 1/2 years since open heart mitral valve repair and a bypass and just did 53 miles in 4 days in the Smoky mountains. Not bad for 69 yrs old. Remember everyone keep moving and LIVE!

Oh the Smokies! It's been years and I'm on the opposite coast now where the mountains are huge but yours are more to my liking. I grew up north of you and love the folded mountains. They evoke a very different feeling than these volcanic ones. I'll have to come... Read more.
