Journal Entry: 

Cathy was still in a lot of pain yesterday and she worked on getting an MRI scheduled. She actually got scheduled for one in Sandy at Alta View hospital at 6 p.m. last night. Hopefully we can get the results this morning and learn what we have to do next. Surgery is apparently going to be needed if any fracture is discovered in her hip. If no fracture then it's just healing over time, hopefully sooner rather than later. We should no more today.

I went to my new CPAP doctor yesterday and he ordered a new sleep test for me. I conducted my own test last night by not using my CPAP machine and I think I slept better and didn't snore. One of the main causes of sleep apnea is being overweight. As of this morning I weigh 222 which is a lot less than I used to weigh. I think I'm going to be better off without the CPAP machine and sleep just fine. We'll see.

We're scheduled for the Bishops Storehouse today. Obviously Cathy won't be there but if everything lines up, I should be able to go.

2 Nephi 26:24 He doeth not anything save it be for the benefit of the world; for he loveth the world, even that he layeth down his own life that he may draw all men unto him. Wherefore, he commandeth none that they shall not partake of his salvation.

"What does it take for you to be drawn to the Savior? Consider Jesus Christ’s submission to His Father’s will, His victory over death, His taking upon Himself your sins and mistakes, His receiving power from the Father to make intercession for you, and His ultimate redemption of you. Are these things not sufficient to draw you to Him? They are for me. Jesus Christ “stands with open arms, hoping and willing to heal, forgive, cleanse, strengthen, purify, and sanctify [you and me]."

Elder Dale G. Renlund Of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostle, April 2020

2 Nephi 27:  1 But, behold, in the last days, or in the days of the Gentiles—yea, behold all the nations of the Gentiles and also the Jews, both those who shall come upon this land and those who shall be upon other lands, yea, even upon all the lands of the earth, behold, they will be drunken with iniquity and all manner of abominations— 2 And when that day shall come they shall be visited of the Lord of Hosts, with thunder and with earthquake, and with a great noise, and with storm, and with tempest, and with the flame of devouring fire.
