That poor guy's situation must of been horrific. You might of thought he should of be X-rayed first. Yikes....<br /><br />I truly embrace all the vibes that resonate in my life thanks to you and all those who have shown such caring and concern. I hope that I can ease the worries of somebody who might read my experiences and realise we can adjust our minds to see things in a more positive light. I'm grateful to know you, Nancy. Thank you.<br /><br />In peace and positive thoughts,<br /><br />Garyklahaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08613505424843475639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4219984917795758890.post-53071597908049993052013-02-19T03:33:26.336+00:002013-02-19T03:33:26.336+00:00Hi Joylene,

I am deeply sorry to read of your family member's illness. We look for a hopeful outcome for your family member. If what I experienced can be of some comfort, that is profound.

Indeed, I'd much rather go for a ride on the MRI for just a thrill seeking reason.

The MRI is particularly horrible with all that clunking it does. I heard of a guy once who didn't know he'd been shot so he didn't realize he still had a bullet inside him, and when he got in the MRI, it pulled the bullet out and left him screaming and ruined the machine. <br /><br />Whatever the outcome is here, just know that, although we might not be there in person, we are in spirit. You obviously have a lot of people who genuinely care about you, including me. You touch a lot of lives, Gary.

I can't explain what that means, but a family member just found out she's seriously ill. I'm still trying to digest the information. Hearing how well your day went has helped.

I've always wanted to take a ride in one, but I don't want a legitimate reason to do so. Those all sound too scary. Oddly enough, I know how magnetic resonance works too. It's really quite interesting and has to do with descending electrons and the light they give off while in orbit.Michael Offutt, Phantom Readerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10557969104886174930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4219984917795758890.post-33734474699526070662013-02-18T03:41:34.066+00:002013-02-18T03:41:34.066+00:00Oh Gary... you and music!

Or maybe those sounds were coming from me! Chilling to the sounds on the headphones was a good distraction. Would of been neat to have taken my own soundtrack.

If I had visualised a toaster toasting, time would slow down. If I had visualised the end of the ride and finding myself in a space time warp, time would speed up and yes, it did. Upon arrival at my home door, a beloved dog named Penny greeted me with affection. A great ending to the first of the days in a challenging week.
