    Thank you Nancy, it means a lot to me that you commented on this song. On our album this song is what they call a ghost track. After the last song, it goes for about 30 seconds then fades in. I had to put this on, I had just been in the hospital (complications from diabetes), they came in one evening to give me a test, when I asked them what was going on they told me I had an hour and they were going to have to remove my right leg. Well, I told the doctor, he might not understand what I was going to tell him, I wasn't even sure I did. But just before I came into the hospital, I stopped at a church and prayed, and they said if I believed it I was healed. I said I had to take God's word. Then he asked me if he could give me the test.  He did just about everything you could do with this Doppler machine, then asked me if I felt okay-could he do one more test, I consented. After he checked all the results, he asked me how long I'd had the diabetes. I said 17 years. He then told  me I had the circulatory system of a 17 year old kid. He showed me the tests from the MRI that morning, where I was full of blood clots from my feet, up to my chest. He said now he couldn't find the first one. My doctor told my wife and mother there had been too much damage to my foot, they would have to take my leg from the knee down, not to say anything to me, he would come in several days and break it to me himself. Well he came in on Sunday, began to unwrap my foot. Then he threw his scissors down, and threw his coat down. Now!!! I figured I was dying. He looked around at me crying, and said "I was not prepared for this...You are not going to lose your leg, your foot, at the most you'll lose your toe". I said yank that thing off and let me outta here. Well I did lose my big toe on my right foot. But when I had to have skin  grafts they took 100%. I was in there for about six weeks, but you know I'm still walking, standing on my own two feet, and still playing the banjo because, SOMEBODY TOUCHED ME.                                                                   Taylor Farley, Jr.
