Dear Reader,
I wanted to give you a quick update on the last couple of days. I had the Mohs surgery on my foot on Tuesday morning. It took a while but they did get all the cancer cells which is a relief. However, it has been extremely painful and I have been very limited in my ability to get around. I am supposed to stay off the foot for the next few days so I will probably not be at home until Friday. I’m on lots of medication which was added to the already heavy medicated schedule.
So I am not going to post a blog until Saturday. Thank you for all your emails, text and telephone calls… Your thoughts and prayer have been most appreciated. I am glad to say that is over but it is a process and will take a few weeks until I’m back to walking.
Take care if you are in the path of hurricane Micheal – Looks like we will miss the major force of this hurricane.

About Becky Dingle
I was born a Tarheel but ended up a Sandlapper. My grandparents
were cotton farmers in Laurens, South Carolina and it was in my
grandmother’s house that my love of storytelling began beside an old
Franklin stove. When I graduated from Laurens High School, I attended
Erskine College (Due West of what?) and would later get my Masters
Degree in Education/Social Studies from Charleston Southern. I am
presently an adjunct professor/clinical supervisor at CSU and have also
taught at the College of Charleston.
For 28 years I taught Social Studies through storytelling. My philosophy
matched Rudyard Kipling’s quote: “If history were taught in the form of
stories, it would never be forgotten.” Today I still spread this message
through workshops and presentations throughout the state. The secret
of success in teaching social studies is always in the story.
I want to keep learning and being surprised by life…it is the greatest
teacher. Like Kermit said, “When you’re green you grow, when you’re
ripe you rot.”
You take care of you.
You take care of yourself nd don’t worry about us readers of your blog, we will be right here when you feel better. I will continue to say a special prayer for your speedy recovery and I know before I say the prayer that it will be granted to you. The Lord looks after his own.
Prayers for a speedy recovery. Thinking of you and hoping you’re better each passing day.
The most important thing you need to do right now is take care of yourself. I am praying for the pain to subside and for a speedy recovery. Take care and know we miss and love you.
Godspeed friend.
