So true, we're not promised even the day we woke up to, and we are guilty of taking it for granted as well as those close to us. Prayers for Cindy and you.
Thank you. Everyone gets mad now and then, but to hold a grudge really hurts you more than them. Heck, they write things down so they don't forget why they are mad.....how sad is that?
Good morning Muskrat and Cindy, I sure do hope that Cindy is feeling better soon. Those danged infections are painful and I hope that she is relieved of the pain and healthy soon. My wife has leukemia and she too is not a complainer. It’s hard to tell if she’s just having a rough day or if she is in pain most days. Blessings to you and your family 🙏, be safe and watch your topknot my friends 👍💪🙌🌈✌️🐽🐷🐖
Good Morning. Oh No...I'm very sorry to hear that. Give her a big hug from us and don't give up hope. I'll add her to our prayer list.....unfortunatly, it's a long list. Thank you again and God Blees You Both!
Thank you! We met in 1988, and got married in 1990. Very neat that you have a Cindy! They are the BEST! Yeah.....I don't want to even think about losing her.....she seems better today, but it's been a rough week. She's still in a lot of pain.
Thank you! Did you back hurt like crazy? I think that is what is making her the most miserable. I'm glad you got over it. Watching her, it has to be miserable!
@@MuskratOutdoors I had 7 heart surgeries (58yrs old then) in the summer of 2019, (bad valve and other things) my family and myself, were not certain of the outcome. I have had 5 yrs + at this point, everyday is a gift!!!!!
Good morning Gary! I also believe everything happens for a reason. I believe things will work out and most times for the better. Cindy I am wishing you a speedy and complete recovery. All the best to you both.
Good morning Gary. I always say the same thing. Things happen for a reason. We will be praying for Cindy and a speedy recovery. I think of you folks as good friends, even though we've never met. It's kinda weird. Best wishes to you folks.
Good morning! I feel the same way. It is kind of strange. I never expected that with this You Tube stuff, but I have become friends with you and others through it. I think it's the comment part of this. We can "Talk" and get to know each other as well as see who we are talking to. It's great when you think about it! Have a great day, and thank you!
Praying that Cindy is well soon! You are absolutely right in everything you said! I lost my husband 8 years ago. But, if I hadn’t, I probably would not have developed the relationship with God that I now have. As you said, “Everything happens for a reason.”
Thank you very much. I'm sorry to hear about your Husband. It seems strange for something good to come from something like that, but it does work that way.
Good morning Gary sorry to hear about Cindy my mom gets those nasty and painful bladder infections the wright medications and rest usually clears it up in a few days shes feeling better im sure Cindy is going ybe ok in a few days 🙏🙏
Good mornin Gary. Ya know sometimes being a tough gal is a bad thing. My Beckie was a tough gal who waited till 2am to complain to me about her jaw hurting but then her chest started hurting and she wouldn't let me call 911. She was gone from my life by 3:30am. When a woman has a heart attack they feel the pain in different spots than men. A couple days ago I had to have 911 called on me and the fear in my daughters eyes broke my heart. Today I go find out what the new spot in my lung is. And I was told I had to come in and couldn't do a phone or video appointment. Of course we all know what that means. Yes Brother, You and Kevin take good care of your ladies and love them as much as you can while you can. And in closing this little book I wrote today I would say go see your family members and just let them know you love them. Maybe that's all that's needed.
Dang....I'm very sorry to hear about Beckie. You can go both ways with complaining, too much, or not enough. The spot on your lung doesn't sound good, but hang in there, it could be almost anything. Did you have Covid or get that shot? It could be scar tissue or a small blood clot. I hope and pray they want to talk to you about doing some test that will tell them it's nothing to worry too much about. When my truck broke down, the firewood I was getting, I was going to take to them. We have enough for the year, and I had hoped it would break the ice, but I didn't get it done. Maybe I still can.
@@MuskratOutdoors Great news for me Gary. The cancer is dead and what the ER CAT scan was showing is actually the scar tissue from the Radiation. I guess ER Dr.'s don't know about that stuff? I hope ya do get to break the Ice Gary. In today's world family truly is the best medicine. This Nov 30th will be my 16th yr w/o my Beckie. I'm just glad she never had to live in the OBummer era. LOL I'll be praying for you all.
Wow. Thank you MO for a wonderful gift today. My partner of 33 years died the morning of June 19th past. She was diagnosed with cancer of the uterus and given 3 months to get her affairs in order. She lasted 3 weeks. Not sure I'll ever get over it, especially since I couldn't get to her to say good-bye. We emailed back and forth but I'll always regret not being there when she passed and not saying and showing her so much more. My 32 year old son has just had a biopsy for his 3rd cancer in 2 years who was healthy as could be. It was testicular cancer first and he underwent chemo and radiation. 3 months later he did the treatment again with lymph node cancer. Now, on Tuesday past, he had a biopsy on what looks like tongue cancer. I'm waiting to hear something definitive today sometime. Again, thank you for what both you and Cindy do. There is so much more I could say but I've said enough today. Peace and blessings my brother.
Oh Wow.....I'm very sorry to hear this. Don't lose hope! Pray! There is a lot more that the doctors can do with that nasty stuff now. It's never good news, but it's better than it was even just a few years ago. No, you never get over it. The pain lessens, but it's always there. You never stop missing them.
..I hear you totally. My wife and I both have pretty good health and we have a close family. We are very blessed. Also our whole family loves the Lord very much.
Thank you! Hey, Cindy just got off the phone with you.....please don't get carried away! We are OK. You really don't need to do that! I'm not sure I'm not banned from the gun show! HA! I didn't know I couldn't film it....they weren't very happy that I did. I guess I shouldn't have, it didn't really feel "right" but I didn't see any signs that said I couldn't? They said there was some......I dunno...I guess if they kick me out we will spend the money at Nap's instead!
Good morning Gary and Cindy. Sending you both prayers. Hope Cindy is doing better. You are right Gary, life is hard and tough and short so there is no point in not having a forgiving heart and getting back to loving each others families.
Really pleased Cindy is on the mend, I believe things happen for a reason and certainly did for you, similar happened with us and I spent the whole of May in hospital, getting better now but older and you're right, you shouldn't hold grudges, we've always made a point of kissing last thing before going to sleep and telling all family members we love them when we see or speak to them. Others that don't want to talk for whatever reason are the losers, life is too short and sometimes you have to cut out the dead wood. Our prayers are with you both, take care, Norfolk, UK Ray
Thank you. You are 100% Right. Never go to bed mad. It's not worth it, but on the other hand, the other side has to be reasonable too. You can quit being mad, but you can't force them to.
Amen brother agree with you never been said any better that I've ever herd! My name is Edward bonner from the Sabine river bottoms of Louisiana. Been watching you guys for about a year now.last September I was in icu 3 times in a couple months kidney problems I'm 64 years old always trapped and hunted never had a health scare before, what you said about everything happens for a resion, absolutely believe that! I watch you guys every day now, the reason I started was because I was layed up! Might never ran across the show if I were not. Big thanks to yall ! Was in a bad place in my mind and you guys made me feel better! Tell Cindy I will be praying for her!!!❤
Thank you very much Edward. I'm glad to hear you enjoy this. Sometimes I wonder if it's worth the trouble, then I hear things like you wrote and I realize it is. Thank you very much for that! I sure hope things have gotten better for you. Life is a strange thing really. Why some folks choose to be hateful and miserable when they don't have to be is a real brain boggler. There's sure a lot of them though. Cindy did much better today. We even got her chicken house cleaned! The last few days, she couldn't even go to the rest room by herself without help. Much better.....I sure hope she didn't over do it.
@@MuskratOutdoors No it's up to whoever recognizes the need to heal old wounds, I do know how hard it can be to break through old hurts, we just have to throw our pride out the backdoor, and open the front door to a brighter future with those we love.
Thank you! She seems a little better today, but still miserable. I think she will be OK...I hope! Have a great day and thank you for being such a great friend!
Great preaching on the importance of life Muskrat. Everyone needs to hear that. We got the same crap going on in our family. Prayers for Cindy and you. Everything happens for a reason. And it's all in God's good timing. 😇🙏
Thank you. Too many people are like that. It's not worth it! If you don't get along, you don't have to talk often, but talk! They don't realize that they are hurting themselves the most.
So sorry to hear about Cindy's ordeal. I am a lot like Cindy in that I don't complain about things. You really resonate with me with your message that everything happens for a reason. I can write a book about that. I have endured many things in my life & it hasn't been easy but I learn from things & move on. Right now I have a hernia to deal with. I don't know what lesson is to be learned from that. Maybe your not getting any younger. My mind says one thing but my body is saying something else. I feel like I can tear into things like I was when I was younger but I can't. Thanks & have a good day. Wishing Cindy a speady recovery.
Thank you. I'm sorry to hear about your problems too. I've never had a hernia, but I have been told they are miserable. It's funny how it works....I look in the mirror and wonder who that old guy is in there...I don't feel like I'm old most of the time. I hope you heal up fast too.
Hello prayers for Cindy and you. I am a firm believer that things do happen for a reason. God has a plan, whether it's good or bad. I've think when you hear of death's it always comes in three's. Hold your family close. ❤ Rhonda
Blessings to both of you. Keeping a warm thought for you Cindy. Hope you feel better soon. And Gary thanks so much for the wake up. We all should take a little time and be aware of our doings
Thank you very much. It's frustrating really to see families and friends torn apart over things so stupid. It is very hard to watch or deal with. People say stupid things when they are mad that they don't really mean. Sadly, we all do it.....we shouldn't, but we do. Today Cindy did much better, but it's been rough the last few days.
Is there a way we can help you guys out somehow? Get the truck going and the hospital paid off? I’m grateful to you guys for sharing your lives. I’m sure I’m not the only one who’d like to pay you guys back a little. Praying for healing ❤️🩹
@@MuskratOutdoors look Gary, I know your pride is huge and I’m not looking to give charity. I’m looking to help people who need it and will never ask or accept it. Is there at least some place I can send a card? I don’t want your home address or anything, just maybe a PO Box or something neutral like email to protect your privacy. You guys have had a real impact on some of us, let us do something in return.
Thank you for sharing my friends! I think about things like that all the time! No matter how bad you think it is I know there is always someone who has it worse! Good luck with everything!
Hope all goes well for Cindy Gary. And you where on point with your talk this morning. I'm pretty much the same as you , life is too short to be harbinger grudges. Take care and live everyday like it's your last. Watching from New Brunswick Canada thanks for your videos I love watching.
Amen, We are blessed whether we will give God the credit or not. We need to let the grudges and hurt feelings go. And be THANKFUL for each one of the family that the good Lord has loaned to you to have in your life for just a short while. As you know, I lost my wife of 42 years this past March 10th, from a mistake made by doing a cancer biopsy. I miss my love so much. I wish I had told her and shown her more that I loved her. She helped me run our business, Garage and wrecker service. She was and still is my angel. Aways and forever, forever and always. My love, my wife, and my best friend. The last two years she was bedfast, and I was her only caregiver but, that's how I wanted it. I spent every hour of everyday except for grocery runs with her. But, still, I regret not spending more time showing her just how much she meant to me. Live, laugh, and lovem while you have em. Prayers for you Cindy, Muskrat, hold her tight, you've got a keeper too. God bless you both, Tennessee Hillbilly, Out.
AMEN! It's a terrible thing losing someone you love, but your Wife is a part of you. The closest person in your life. I don't want to ever be without her and the thought of it terrifies me. I'm very sorry you had to go through it.
@MuskratOutdoors Thank you, she is half of my heart, and always will be. We did everything together. The emptiness inside me now is indescribable. I would give the world just to have her back with me. She was ready to go, and I know she's not hurting anymore but, the hurt inside, I never knew I could feel this much pain and still walk around. It's like she's just ran to the store and I'm waiting on her to pull back up and walk in with that beautiful smile on her face. Its rough, but like you said death comes for us all. We just have to be ready. And live each day with your precious love, as it were our last. God bless You and Cindy. May God shine his light upon you both for many, many, years to come. Hold on to one another. Cause I promise nothing in this world will matter.
Good afternoon Muskrat...Idaho Hillbilly brought me here. I love his common sense videos and I am looking forward to seeing yours as well now. I am a 75 year old man living in the foothills of Mt Rainier in Washington State and love the outdoors and all that goes with it...much love my friend.
Thank you and WELCOME! Hopefully I can get back to some more fun videos soon. Kevin, Idaho Hillbilly, is a great guy and good friend. He has helped me a lot with this stuff. My Grandparents lived in Everett, Great Grandparents in Tacoma, and Mom near Stevensville. We moved here in 1991 from Stanwood. I know the area you are talking about.
My prayers 🙏 are with you and Cindy! Keep looking up brother. I feel the pain , it bothers one when there soulmate is sick or or not feeling well. But Gods on the throne hearing our prayers. Stay blessed my brother in Christ Jesus
Bro, I was a boxer and lost my arm in a car wreck and my family took 1.5 million dollar's from me and when I came out of the hospital with one Arm,they wouldn't let me come home and I was homeless for two years in the woods and I realize something quick. Greed was it and I forgave everyone involved and moved on.
@ maybe a little trip in the spring down here to beautiful Southlake Tahoe what do you both some good? Let me know I’ll get you a good deal on a hotel rate on the lake.
I hope Cindy is feeling better. I try not to take anything for granted. Someone once told me that you can't take life too seriously, no one gets out alive.
Dear friend, my wife went through the same thing, and they kept giving her pain pills for a long time. Get her a Altra sound and my wife's intestine ruptured and had diverticulitis, and her poop was killing her. I had to beg these folks to do something. I would advise the same. I will pray for her. These doctors just kept giving her pill and never looked for the cause of the pain.8 feet of her intestine was removed and thank God she lived. Also, without a poop bag hanging off her. Peace bro!
I believe that every thing happens for a reason. Thanks buddy for the reminder I appreciate it. Hope Cindy gets to feeling better I am sorry this happened to her.
I do too. Besides....it's better than looking at things as just bad luck. Nope, there is a reason always. We don't always like it, but it's the way it is supposed to be.
Those urinary tract infections are no joke. People can become septic quickly if it’s not treated in a timely fashion. Sorry to hear that your local hospital isn’t the best. I work in a small critical access hospital here in North Idaho as a RN. Yes hospital large or small get bad wraps not matter what. I’ve thought about putting in at that hospital in Salmon bummer that it’s not good. Hospital culture and the administration has a lot to do with it too. Bummer you have to drive so far to get good medical care. I’m glad Cindy got the treatment she needed. Sounds like they were on top of it quick. I will keep you all in my thoughts and prayers. I hope this infection clears up quick. Thanks for sharing. Take care, see ya :)
Thank you very much. I had no idea it could be so painful. She is miserable, but seems a little better so far today. No, this Hospital is a good take off point for Life Flight and that's about it. We have had quite a few problems with them personally and just about everyone we talk to has too. The last time, I actually filed a complaint against them for refusing to test us for Covid. Cindy was supposed to get a stent in her heart that morning in Missoula, but we woke up sick....her doctor told us to go there and get tested. They refused until I got very loud and caused problems....yep, we had Covid. It was supposed to be a free test, but they charged me for it too. Our Daughter is actually a nurse and won't work there. It's too bad, it would be nice to have her closer to home. It's a big, fancy building, but pretty worthless. The Veterinarian in town is better!
Boy that’s something Gary your truck broke down , good your home to help poor Cindy . I wonder about that stuff like that happening too . I really like listening to ya , thanks for the video
I'm sorry about all that the 2 of you are and have been going through, but it is amazing how things work out or come around in the end. About grudges I am guilty of this myself, i tend to just move on when others choose to be an Ass.
I always figured you to be just this wise. Gary Thomas aint no joke and a helluva man in my opinion. Tell Cindy best wishes and my family is praying for your family. Thanks
Thank you very much Ron. I'm not sure I'm wise, but I can see the reason behind things....at least some of the time. Sometimes things just don't make sense. Even so, there is a reason.
GOD Bless You Guys AMen Brother the Bible says how can we expect to be forgiven if we can't forgive. It is sure neat to see the LORD work in our lives I am glad you see it. Not everyone does. You Guys are in my Prayers for a fast complete recovery. Lean on JESUS and each other. Thanks for all the excellent videos I Love You Guys
God bless you too and thank you very much. It really bothers me that they are so unwilling to even try to forgive. They even keep note to remember why they are mad if you can believe that.....it's very sad....
Sorry to here Cindy isn't feeling good. Hope she gets better soon. I also like your outlook on life. I feel the same way. People shouldn't take things so seriously and get on with there life , there's a lot of good living out there dont let it slip away.
Thank you. No, they shouldn't. They are hurting themselves as well as those around them. They are missing out on some great times that could have been had.
Praying for Cindy !!!
Thank you!
So true, we're not promised even the day we woke up to, and we are guilty of taking it for granted as well as those close to us.
Prayers for Cindy and you.
100% Right. Ya never know....maybe that's a good thing really....
Muskrat, you are so right if more people had your attitude the world would be a better place! Hope Cindy gets better soon
Thank you. Everyone gets mad now and then, but to hold a grudge really hurts you more than them. Heck, they write things down so they don't forget why they are mad.....how sad is that?
Good Morning 🌄
GOOD MORNING! I hope Grandma is doing well......
Good morning Muskrat and Cindy, I sure do hope that Cindy is feeling better soon. Those danged infections are painful and I hope that she is relieved of the pain and healthy soon.

Prayers for Cindy.
Thank you. It helps!
Oh man Gary, I've had my Cindy since 1992, this is 1 hits home. I hope she's doing ok now. You 2 are made for eachother.
Thank you! We met in 1988, and got married in 1990. Very neat that you have a Cindy! They are the BEST! Yeah.....I don't want to even think about losing her.....she seems better today, but it's been a rough week. She's still in a lot of pain.
👍🏼👍🏼Hope Cindy gets better soon!
Me too. Thank you very much.
Get well Cindy I too had that very infection and felt like I was going to die, the meds and antibiotics should help. Prayers to you all.
Thank you! Did you back hurt like crazy? I think that is what is making her the most miserable. I'm glad you got over it. Watching her, it has to be miserable!
We never know how long we have on this earth.........or others close to us may have.
That's exactly right. Not everyone gets to be old. It's stupid to waste any time fighting.

Thank you. You are 100% Right. Never go to bed mad. It's not worth it, but on the other hand, the other side has to be reasonable too. You can quit being mad, but you can't force them to.
God bless ❤thanx 4 the video 😊.. LOVE U GUYS ...THANX 4 ALL YOUR VIDEOS ❤ 🙏
Thank you very much!
Gosh, my prayers for you and Cindy. Your outlook on all this is excellent and you are so right.
Thank you! It's worse to feel sorry for yourself or get mad....it is tough sometimes though!
Oh snap praying for her fast healing!👍🏽😊❤️🇺🇸
Thank you!
Amen brother agree with you never been said any better that I've ever herd! My name is Edward bonner from the Sabine river bottoms of Louisiana. Been watching you guys for about a year now.last September I was in icu 3 times in a couple months kidney problems I'm 64 years old always trapped and hunted never had a health scare before, what you said about everything happens for a resion, absolutely believe that! I watch you guys every day now, the reason I started was because I was layed up! Might never ran across the show if I were not. Big thanks to yall ! Was in a bad place in my mind and you guys made me feel better! Tell Cindy I will be praying for her!!!❤
Thank you very much Edward. I'm glad to hear you enjoy this. Sometimes I wonder if it's worth the trouble, then I hear things like you wrote and I realize it is. Thank you very much for that!
I sure hope things have gotten better for you. Life is a strange thing really. Why some folks choose to be hateful and miserable when they don't have to be is a real brain boggler. There's sure a lot of them though.
Cindy did much better today. We even got her chicken house cleaned! The last few days, she couldn't even go to the rest room by herself without help. Much better.....I sure hope she didn't over do it.
We hope Cindy gets well soon! We will have you both in our prayers.
Thank you very much. She seems a little better today....I hope!
Hope Cindy feels better soon. Praying for yall.
Thank you. So far, she seems a little better today.
Amen brother , very true ! Thanks for sharing and our prayers are with you all !!!!! 🙏😊👍❤️
Thank you very much. Life is too short for BS!!
Get better Cindy
Thank you. So far, she seems a little better today. I hope.
You guys are great people and I'm very happy to have met you. I'll pray for you both and Cindy I'm sure with Gods help will be fine.
Thank you very much Sherman! It was great meeting you and Kieth too. I hope you will get back out here again someday.
Sorry to hear about Cindy! Best wishes and prayers for a speedy recovery!
Thank you very much.
God be with Cindy, and Gary. Never let your loved ones get so far from you that you don't know who they are.
Amen! It's tough. You can't talk to a closed door. It's up to them really.
@@MuskratOutdoors No it's up to whoever recognizes the need to heal old wounds, I do know how hard it can be to break through old hurts, we just have to throw our pride out the backdoor, and open the front door to a brighter future with those we love.
Probably got it from hunting with a dirty old man in the mountains. (I hope ya laughed)
We love yall 🙏
You get better Cindy we need ya. ❤
HA! That could be!!!! Thank you Al!!
I'm keeping my fingers crossed for Cindy! I hope she gets better as soon as possible. Have a great day, You and Cindy!
Thank you! She seems a little better today, but still miserable. I think she will be OK...I hope! Have a great day and thank you for being such a great friend!
Good morning. I sure hope she gets better soon. I know what it's like being in pain and it's super hard. Sending love and prayers your way. Take care
Good Morning! She seems a little better today. Hopefully she will be well soon, but still in a lot of pain. I hope you are feeling better too.
Mornin brother good advice hope Cindy is doing well now👍👍
Good Morning! So far, today she seems a little better....
Very well said so true God bless everyone
Thank you. God Blees ya!
Glad she's doing better. Sending prayers to heaven for her complete healing and health!
Thank you very much! It Helps!
Prayers
Thank you!
Great preaching on the importance of life Muskrat. Everyone needs to hear that. We got the same crap going on in our family. Prayers for Cindy and you. Everything happens for a reason. And it's all in God's good timing. 😇🙏
Thank you. Too many people are like that. It's not worth it! If you don't get along, you don't have to talk often, but talk! They don't realize that they are hurting themselves the most.
Thoughts and prayers your way. I hope everything works out.
Thank you very much.
Praying 🙏🏻 for healing ❤️🩹 for Cindy❤️🙏🏻❤️ Jesus Christ is charge🙏🏻 Have a blessed day ❤🙏🏻❤️
Thank you very much! I hope things are better on your end too.
@ One day at a time 🙏🏻
@@billiep4338 It's all we can do. Good Luck!
So sorry to hear about Cindy's ordeal. I am a lot like Cindy in that I don't complain about things. You really resonate with me with your message that everything happens for a reason. I can write a book about that. I have endured many things in my life & it hasn't been easy but I learn from things & move on. Right now I have a hernia to deal with. I don't know what lesson is to be learned from that. Maybe your not getting any younger. My mind says one thing but my body is saying something else. I feel like I can tear into things like I was when I was younger but I can't. Thanks & have a good day. Wishing Cindy a speady recovery.
Thank you. I'm sorry to hear about your problems too. I've never had a hernia, but I have been told they are miserable. It's funny how it works....I look in the mirror and wonder who that old guy is in there...I don't feel like I'm old most of the time. I hope you heal up fast too.
Prayers, have a blessed day
Thank you, you too.
Hello prayers for Cindy and you. I am a firm believer that things do happen for a reason. God has a plan, whether it's good or bad. I've think when you hear of death's it always comes in three's. Hold your family close. ❤ Rhonda
Thank you very much! Ya just never know.....stupid to waste time being mad. I hope you have a great day!
Blessings to both of you. Keeping a warm thought for you Cindy. Hope you feel better soon. And Gary thanks so much for the wake up. We all should take a little time and be aware of our doings
Thank you very much. It's frustrating really to see families and friends torn apart over things so stupid. It is very hard to watch or deal with. People say stupid things when they are mad that they don't really mean. Sadly, we all do it.....we shouldn't, but we do. Today Cindy did much better, but it's been rough the last few days.
Thankful for everything!
Thank you too!
Is there a way we can help you guys out somehow? Get the truck going and the hospital paid off? I’m grateful to you guys for sharing your lives. I’m sure I’m not the only one who’d like to pay you guys back a little. Praying for healing ❤️🩹
Do you have their email address?
They're humble people but I'm sure they would much appreciate some help.
I thank you very much for that, but no, it will all work out. I'm grateful for the offer though!
@@MuskratOutdoors look Gary, I know your pride is huge and I’m not looking to give charity. I’m looking to help people who need it and will never ask or accept it. Is there at least some place I can send a card? I don’t want your home address or anything, just maybe a PO Box or something neutral like email to protect your privacy. You guys have had a real impact on some of us, let us do something in return.
@@Oldminerdon I don’t unfortunately.
Thank you for sharing my friends! I think about things like that all the time! No matter how bad you think it is I know there is always someone who has it worse! Good luck with everything!
100% True! It's easy to feel sorry for ourselves, but when you look around at the problems other folks have, we shouldn't.
Prayers for Cindy that she heal fast
Thank you!
Well said! Hope Cindy gets feeling better soon!
Thank you very much.
Hope all goes well for Cindy Gary. And you where on point with your talk this morning. I'm pretty much the same as you , life is too short to be harbinger grudges. Take care and live everyday like it's your last. Watching from New Brunswick Canada thanks for your videos I love watching.
Thank you. She did much better today. Yeah, nothing is that important to be mad about.
Tell Cindy to get well soon she is a huge part of your channel I love your channel keep them videos coming🙏👍👍🇺🇸
She's everything really. Without her, I couldn't go on. Thank you very much.
I hope Cindy gets to feeling better soon ❤
Thank you!
so true prayers for cindy
Thank you very much.
Take good care of Cindy a good friend is hard to find, you’re pretty lucky brother. We are all thinking of her.
Oh Man....I'm very lucky. I would be lost without her. Thank you.
Amen, We are blessed whether we will give God the credit or not. We need to let the grudges and hurt feelings go. And be THANKFUL for each one of the family that the good Lord has loaned to you to have in your life for just a short while.
As you know, I lost my wife of 42 years this past March 10th, from a mistake made by doing a cancer biopsy.
I miss my love so much. I wish I had told her and shown her more that I loved her. She helped me run our business, Garage and wrecker service. She was and still is my angel. Aways and forever, forever and always. My love, my wife, and my best friend.
The last two years she was bedfast, and I was her only caregiver but, that's how I wanted it. I spent every hour of everyday except for grocery runs with her. But, still, I regret not spending more time showing her just how much she meant to me. Live, laugh, and lovem while you have em.
Prayers for you Cindy, Muskrat, hold her tight, you've got a keeper too.
God bless you both,
Tennessee Hillbilly, Out.
AMEN! It's a terrible thing losing someone you love, but your Wife is a part of you. The closest person in your life. I don't want to ever be without her and the thought of it terrifies me. I'm very sorry you had to go through it.
@MuskratOutdoors Thank you, she is half of my heart, and always will be. We did everything together. The emptiness inside me now is indescribable. I would give the world just to have her back with me.
She was ready to go, and I know she's not hurting anymore but, the hurt inside, I never knew I could feel this much pain and still walk around. It's like she's just ran to the store and I'm waiting on her to pull back up and walk in with that beautiful smile on her face. Its rough, but like you said death comes for us all. We just have to be ready. And live each day with your precious love, as it were our last.
God bless You and Cindy. May God shine his light upon you both for many, many, years to come. Hold on to one another. Cause I promise nothing in this world will matter.
@@tseals5248 Oh Man.....I feel so bad for you. I can't imagine.......I'm very sorry.....
Thank you.....
Mornin prayers sent my friends can't understand it my self, I reckon you nailed it on avery leavel.
Thank you Paul. I think she will be OK, but it's not much fun.
Your absolutely right. I truly hope Cindy has a speedy recovery. Enjoy the day👍👍
Thank you.
Mornin' !
Hope Cindy recovers fully soon.
Good Morning!
Thank you!
🙏
Thank you!
Good afternoon Muskrat...Idaho Hillbilly brought me here. I love his common sense videos and I am looking forward to seeing yours as well now. I am a 75 year old man living in the foothills of Mt Rainier in Washington State and love the outdoors and all that goes with it...much love my friend.
Thank you and WELCOME! Hopefully I can get back to some more fun videos soon. Kevin, Idaho Hillbilly, is a great guy and good friend. He has helped me a lot with this stuff. My Grandparents lived in Everett, Great Grandparents in Tacoma, and Mom near Stevensville. We moved here in 1991 from Stanwood. I know the area you are talking about.
My prayers 🙏 are with you and Cindy! Keep looking up brother. I feel the pain , it bothers one when there soulmate is sick or or not feeling well. But Gods on the throne hearing our prayers. Stay blessed my brother in Christ Jesus
Thank you! She did much better today...we cleaned the chicken house! Ha!
@ Awesome news to hear. She is doing much better then
Bro, I was a boxer and lost my arm in a car wreck and my family took 1.5 million dollar's from me and when I came out of the hospital with one Arm,they wouldn't let me come home and I was homeless for two years in the woods and I realize something quick. Greed was it and I forgave everyone involved and moved on.
HOLY COW! That's terrible! Yeah, greed is a terrible disease! Wow....
Get well ,sending Cindy a speedy recovery, good health and love from beautiful Southlake Tahoe
Thank you! She is doing better finally.
@ maybe a little trip in the spring down here to beautiful Southlake Tahoe what do you both some good?
Let me know I’ll get you a good deal on a hotel rate on the lake.
I hope Cindy is feeling better. I try not to take anything for granted. Someone once told me that you can't take life too seriously, no one gets out alive.
100% True! Enjoy every day as much as possible!
Dear friend, my wife went through the same thing, and they kept giving her pain pills for a long time. Get her a Altra sound and my wife's intestine ruptured and had diverticulitis, and her poop was killing her. I had to beg these folks to do something. I would advise the same. I will pray for her. These doctors just kept giving her pill and never looked for the cause of the pain.8 feet of her intestine was removed and thank God she lived. Also, without a poop bag hanging off her. Peace bro!
WOW! That's terrible. I'm glad it finally worked out, but holy cow!
If she doesn't get better soon we will have to go back.
Septic shock also started in her gallbladder and everything else!
Not good....Wow....
I believe that every thing happens for a reason. Thanks buddy for the reminder I appreciate it. Hope Cindy gets to feeling better I am sorry this happened to her.
I do too. Besides....it's better than looking at things as just bad luck.
Nope, there is a reason always. We don't always like it, but it's the way it is supposed to be.
Just watched this now! Thank you Sir for this video 🙏
Thank you too. Cindy is doing much better now.
Those urinary tract infections are no joke. People can become septic quickly if it’s not treated in a timely fashion. Sorry to hear that your local hospital isn’t the best. I work in a small critical access hospital here in North Idaho as a RN. Yes hospital large or small get bad wraps not matter what. I’ve thought about putting in at that hospital in Salmon bummer that it’s not good. Hospital culture and the administration has a lot to do with it too. Bummer you have to drive so far to get good medical care. I’m glad Cindy got the treatment she needed. Sounds like they were on top of it quick.
I will keep you all in my thoughts and prayers. I hope this infection clears up quick.
Thanks for sharing. Take care, see ya :)
Thank you very much. I had no idea it could be so painful. She is miserable, but seems a little better so far today. No, this Hospital is a good take off point for Life Flight and that's about it. We have had quite a few problems with them personally and just about everyone we talk to has too.
The last time, I actually filed a complaint against them for refusing to test us for Covid. Cindy was supposed to get a stent in her heart that morning in Missoula, but we woke up sick....her doctor told us to go there and get tested. They refused until I got very loud and caused problems....yep, we had Covid. It was supposed to be a free test, but they charged me for it too.
Our Daughter is actually a nurse and won't work there. It's too bad, it would be nice to have her closer to home. It's a big, fancy building, but pretty worthless. The Veterinarian in town is better!
Boy that’s something Gary your truck broke down , good your home to help poor Cindy . I wonder about that stuff like that happening too . I really like listening to ya , thanks for the video
Thank you very much. There's really no other way to look at it. The timing was perfect, I don't think it was just coincidence.
I'm sorry about all that the 2 of you are and have been going through, but it is amazing how things work out or come around in the end. About grudges I am guilty of this myself, i tend to just move on when others choose to be an Ass.
Thank you. Yeah, it's not worth the trouble to stay mad. Sometimes it's hard though. I think we are all at least a little guilty of it.
Thanks for sharing Gary. We'll keep Cindy and you in our prayers. Take care.🇺🇲🌲🔥🔪
Heck, thanks for watching it! Cindy is doing a lot better. She sure had me worried! Thank you!
Truth being spoken...
Thank you.
I always figured you to be just this wise. Gary Thomas aint no joke and a helluva man in my opinion. Tell Cindy best wishes and my family is praying for your family. Thanks
Thank you very much Ron. I'm not sure I'm wise, but I can see the reason behind things....at least some of the time. Sometimes things just don't make sense. Even so, there is a reason.
Thanks!
HEY! THANK YOU DON!!!
Good thoughts and prayers from me my friend ! 💪 stay strong and positive !
Thank you very much! She did much better today.
Take care, hope she heals fast❤
Thank you. She is doing better, but it's been almost a week now....
Sending prayers.
Thank you! It's working! She did better today.
GOD Bless You Guys AMen Brother the Bible says how can we expect to be forgiven if we can't forgive. It is sure neat to see the LORD work in our lives I am glad you see it. Not everyone does. You Guys are in my Prayers for a fast complete recovery. Lean on JESUS and each other. Thanks for all the excellent videos I Love You Guys
God bless you too and thank you very much. It really bothers me that they are so unwilling to even try to forgive. They even keep note to remember why they are mad if you can believe that.....it's very sad....
Sorry to here Cindy isn't feeling good. Hope she gets better soon. I also like your outlook on life. I feel the same way. People shouldn't take things so seriously and get on with there life , there's a lot of good living out there dont let it slip away.
Thank you. No, they shouldn't. They are hurting themselves as well as those around them. They are missing out on some great times that could have been had.
