Out of Touch

OldBones-Larry
5 9 84

I will be out of touch for a few days as I seek out the elders to assist me in finding my path once more.

I will be leaving very early tomorrow morning and returning to my birth lands to seek them out. 

I have done all I can to center myself without aid. I must now turn to the old ceremonies and helpers and I must have others close that can help me return from the other side.

I am unable to say how many days the ceremonies will take, but, I will return as soon as I can.

I ask that you send special words to Creator that He will assist me and grant me this.

Stay strong in your journey my friends as I try to stay strong in this one.

One step, and then another, will get you to where you want to be.

Larry

About the Author
I am a male that underwent coronary artery bypass X3 (triple) on 10/22/13 at the age of 55. I was living on about 20-30% of one coronary artery and my left heart output was only 20% to 25%. I spent a week in the hospital after surgery and went home. Then had to go back a day later for another week because I had pneumonia. Finally a few days because of a slight arythmia. All told it has been about 2 1/2 weeks. I am past the cravings by now and only have the urges to contend with. I really don't suggest that anyone quits smoking using this technique though. I'll have to carry the scars from that day for the rest of my life. The large one down the center of my chest, and the ones from several "silent" infarctions. I came that close to the next world. Never again will I subject my body to that (at one point in my life I was smoking 5 packs of cigarillos a day). I now have to say N.O.P.E. (Not One Puff Ever) every day of my life.
