He even asked me if I would still be able to love him with something like that hanging out of him. What a silly, silly boy!!! I guess he thinks that my love depends on how he looks or what is hanging out of his side. Well it doesn't I didn't marry him because of what he looked like or because he didn't have a feeding tube hanging out his side. I married him because I love him and always will! Of course he is a man and I do occasionally get irritated with him, like yesterday when he said those silly words to me. What he needs to realized is that feeding tube needs to be there. At some point with the radiation treatment he will have a swollen GI tract and throat, maybe even to the point of not being able to eat by mouth. When and if he gets to the point of not being able to eat the feeding tube will be a life saver. Something that he kept trying to reject could save his life!
When the conversation with Richard happened about the feeding tube with the Doctor explaining why he needed it I thought of this and also of how Jesus is like a feeding tube. He died on the cross for us and became a life saver. He did this so we might live forever just as the feeding tube could save Richard. Richard had to accept the fact that he might need this life saving feeding tubing just as we have to accept a life saving Savior. Jesus died so that we might live! Jesus loves us so much! He doesn't care what we look like or what we have hanging out of us or what ghost we have in our past. A person has to accept the fact that Jesus is a life saver. Don't reject His life saving treatment. This treatment was planned, Jesus is the answer to life eternal.
Don't be silly and think you don't need this treatment. One treatment will cover it all. Jesus is the treatment you need!
