Prayers go out to you and Diane.  You are in great hands, God has got you.  I hope your recovery is short and complete.  All of us will be looking for your famous posts on the forum.   Until then, I am sure Diane will keep us updated.

From Diane Wann at 9:09pm tonight:

Beau is in recovery - came through surgery very well.  She will see him in about an hour.  She's exhausted, but will post more tomorrow.  

Let's thank The Lord for getting Beau through this surgery and to give Diane comfort and rest tonight.

     Thanks for all the prayers, goonna meeed more, cause this aint over,  where I did survive 5 hours of chain saw skulldrugery,,  It has come back as a "nasty angry," mess. and is certain to come bacj agaub, and there is another just south of it just waiting to to ccause more problems, it's thats possible...I'm sure it will...this stuff has robbed me of more than I was prepared to give up,my privacy and my dignity, which on the have delt with all my freedon is gone, and i do mean all freedom. no going anywhereespeciily alone, or even with somone  I do miss people! i have speech prob, and mobility prob, it eitheer a wheelchaire or walker, or 2 canes, though the canes hurt my  shoulders and all connected, getting up from a chair is more worser. most of my strength has dissapated to that of a newborn anything.   doc says no lift moren 5 pounds, "hell doc i have a haf dozen bibles that weigh mire than 5 pound each, som heavy words fer sure. they say get back praciting on the guitar,    wait a minite, that would be poing agiaints the 5 poud rul sinc each one goes about 5 pounds ..... i know, ill keep the muisic lite, no heavy metal or clissical. nuttin but fluff

and one other prob, people that treat mike a 4 yr old freak,  or try to cheer me up  with, "you look grea.t and sound good,      i know how i sound and feel and those twq adjectives are no longer valid, i know people mean well, but im really in no  mood for pep talks, and how blessed i am.how blessed i WAS is more like it.  well i could have died, compared to t where  im at now, i did, an if i had, that would t have been a blessing

 

t, you soud good, well i kno w how i feel and "good and great  left town this year. i've gotten defendiis

Teddie Jordan

Beau, Any of us would  be as tired and frustrated as you are if we had been through all that you have. But I also know how loved you are by a large group of family and friends. My hope and expectation is that as you get through recovery and heal from the surgery, you will see and feel the love and hope of so many of us, two legged and four, that know you and love you. I really believe that brother!

Kay Watters '65 (Greene)

Well Beau, I had to laugh at your humor (after all of this), when you said good and great left this year....but courage and faith came back to rest with you.

I want you to visualize when you stick your arm out straight toward the sky, just see all of our hands sticking ours up with you.  Why? Because that is what we do!

Beau Wann, Jr.

         Thank you TJ and Kay et al.   Sorry for the Pity party Rant,  if not for all my Waltrip brothers and sisters in Christ, I  Would'nt have gotten this far..   A  shrink came by the room last week because I was anxious and depressed and wasnt sleeping,    Duh, you think? she said there was a drug for ptsd and cranal trama, and the aforemention probs that I could use. 

      Dont remember the  name  of it, but that stuff was bad news to me.   I was actually looking farword to having a good night sleep and maybe a few less anxious and depressing moments That would have been a blessing, but as things go, that didnt happen, duh.  Instead I had nightmare about bein in the middle of a battle, which of course I am, but this one had bullets hiting the bed all around me and Diane, I saw and felt the bed being hit by round  afer round, saw it jumping and felt it moving,  Saw Diane being bounced along with it ,She said she didnt feel or notice anything be me moaining and groaning and me moving about, 

      This was the second nite of the "hell drug", third nite was the same,   The first nite was even more scarier,  We had takled of going home on Saterday, so that was stuck in my brainless brain.  They gave it to me too early, and I payed the price for that one.  I woke up about midnight and I was daszed and cornfused.  I thought I was at home, but saw all the Mda signs everywhere,  as well as the en suite bath roon. I kept asking Diane how she managed to move my room and bathroom as well, to the hill, How did she hook up the plumbing ,  she kept telling me that were still at MDA, and I kept telling her, "but we were suppose to go home,"      "and we are, today as soom as we are released by the docs," being perceptive,but mentally channenged I just knew there would a snag, lats time it was blood presser 

      I was worried about Little Miss, and her finind a seam in the inbetween of moving the hospital room to the house and getting injured or lost, cats and me get allong because of perception.  now if a cat perceives there is an avenue of adventure as opposed to the hum drum of domestic life, Which now doesnt seen so bad, in fact quite attractive,  the cat will take whaterver measeurs to have fun like I useta be.   However, and aint there always a "however"?  Perception seeems stumble over life, or vice a ma versa,  yeah, that's Eyetrailan for OMG. 

     As much as I tried to understand about us not bein at home and Little Miss was safe, Diane just could not get through to tghe brain that wouldnt dye, but it was dyed, pink,   I was in a panic because LM would be lost in a "worm hole", sort of like I am now.   and I dsidnt want them to give me that drug or any drub to calm down.   I was afeared for my Little Miss,  aand as much as I am afeared for my little kittly friend,  I would tackle the devil, to make sure she was safe.  somehow methinks the devil had takkelecd me with and illelgle " tackled", you know how the devil is, "mean natsy, durty low down shiiffless skonk" .

     At this moment, Little Miss is sitting in ma lap batting at my finkers tippy tappin on the keyboard.    It' is 69 morning, and I'm gonna go walk in the the sun and the dew with Diane and the girls...I'll be back, fair warning.

Beau.....I hope you have some idea of how powerful your messages are. Almost as powerful as the many prayers that are being lifted up for you, Diane and the doctors. We love you man!!

Beau: I was reading in the scriptures and found in Proverbs 3:24 "When you lie down you will not be afarid; Yes, you will lie down and your sleep will  be sweet." I pray that the God of Heaven will grant you sweet and restorative sleep, waking refreshed. Blessing to you and Diane.
