April 25, 2010-One Day At A Time Poem

I'm feeling weak. My legs seem real weak. I think that tumor in my rectum is pushing on some nerves that go to my lower body. So afraid of falling. I'm being very careful around the apartment too. When that tumor is bothering me is when I feel the weakness in my legs more. And it's been bothering me more lately.
My fingers are so stiff and my wrist hurts a lot also. I think I should get that hand x-rayed again. The bones in the top of my hand hurt too much.
I forgot to mention that when I went to the doctor's that day with the Scooter woman, my doctor was looking at my records and she asked how my toes were. Remember when I broke my wrist all the toes on my right foot were bent backwards when I fell and they hurt like crazy for a very long time. Well, she said that the little toe had been broken too. They never told me that but I guess it healed okay because it isn't bothering me. Sometimes I wonder if having a cast on so long hurts more than helps when it comes to healing. All those pressure spots where the cast was hurting are still sore to touch.. Too late to worry about that now. I just have to get through one day at a time here.
I found this poem in my papers. I'm adding it here.

ONE DAY AT A TIME
By
Dottlee Duggan Reid


I don't wish to know tomorrow
For the trials of today
Are enough to keep me busy
here on life's pathway

God in all his wisdom
Could so easily see
One day at a time
Was enough for me

No need to be anxious
For what the future holds
God must prepare you
As each day unfolds

So Lord, I trust you
The future is all thine
Just help me to live
One day at a time
