[Pain Train] Pain Train

Date: 2026-09-04 AO: Pain Train Q: G-string , PAX: Sooie, Juicy J, Pebbles, Half Lyfe, Roadkill, El Capitan, Wolfpack, G-string, Cheeks, Bulldog, Hooters, Inchworm FNGs: None COUNT: 12 CONDITIONS: Perfect for a South Texas boy. Aka, hot and humid

MARY: Coupon WW2 Leg raises Heel taps Plank
MOLESKINE: Be free of the outcome. Working in the ER means being prepared for anything to come through those doors with no warning. It also means that I rarely see how people end up. Someone comes in with a stroke or heart attack, and I have about five minutes to do everything I can for them before sending them off with a different team, and I may never find out what happened or even if they lived. People come in from overdosing on something. We get them stabilized and send them out just hoping they won’t fall off the wagon again. In those few moments I have with them, I have to give all my expertise (limited as it is), all my hope for them, and some joy to ease their fear. Then, when that time is up, I leave and do it again for the next patient. Every person I encounter, I want to see them healed, but that isn’t my place to force that. I have to trust my team, the other teams in the hospital, and the patient themselves. In doing that, if there is success, it isn’t mine alone. If there is failure, it isn’t all my fault. I have to give everything and then let go peacefully. Same can be said for raising our children and so many areas of life. Do what you can, and be free of the outcome. “Have no anxiety at all, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, make your requests known to God. Then the peace of God that surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 4:6-7
ANNOUNCEMENTS: – CSAUP burpee run thing by Wolfpack on Sunday – 5k on the 26th Juicy J – IronPax is live!
