Comfort ye, comfort ye my people, saith your God........He is the righteous Savior, and He shall speak peace........He shall feed His flock like a shepherd, and He shall gather the lambs with His arm and carry them in His bosom, and gently lead........Come unto Him, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and He shall give you rest... and ye shall find rest unto your souls........He was... a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief........I know that my Redeemer liveth,... and though worms destroy this body, yet in my flesh shall I see God........The trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed........Death is swallowed up in victory........Thanks be to God who giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ........If God be for us, who can be against us? ..... It is Christ that died, yea, rather, that is risen again, who is at the right hand of God.

Sheryle Daly My surgery was June 22nd at Cleveland Clinic. I had a minimal invasive ( means the scar is smaller) Aortic Valve Relacement . It was replaced with a bovine valve. Now Larry wants to call me Daisey..or Elsie. I did okay except for two minor complications. I had a bowel blockage and developed fluid in the base on both lungs. This meant I had extra days in the hospita l9 total and extra tubes and medication and oxygen. I came home on Wednesday,6/30, and today I am feeling a little better than yesterday. The devil is present in our house though. Our water tank died and so did our washing machine. So we now own a new tank and washer and we will always remember when we bought them. Same time as my surgery. I return to see the dr next week and hope to be back to church on July 11th playing the organ as usual. My surgeon said I should be good to go for God. God really blessed me during my surgery and my recovery time. I continue to pray for the fluid in my lungs to completely disappear. When that happens I think I will feel SO much better. Thank you everyone for the calls, cards and prayers. I really appreciate it. Keep me in prayer for a full speedy recovery. Sheryle AKA Daisey/Elsie and Larry 7/4/2010
