Toby Keith Has Some Good News For Fans After Surgery

Though Toby Keith, the Iegendary country music singer and songwriter, has mostly been on a three-year sabbatical from singing as he battles back against stomach cancer, his recent on-stage appearance in Las Vegas showed audiences that Keith could be making a come back now that his stomach surgery is over and the can cer battle is going well.

So, as he gets back into music and performing, Keith appeared on the Bobby Bones Show, an entertainment industry-focused radio show, to taIk about his battle with can cer and how it is going.

He also spoke about what challenges he has faced as he, now that his stomach can cer battle forced him to take a few year break from singing after years performing, gets back into a very Iimited performing schedule.

Commenting on that, Keith said, I haven’t worked a handfuI of shows in the last three years, but I worked every year for 27-28 years. He then added that his chief concern was remembering the words, saying : The only thing I had that concerned me was being away from it for three years and remembering all the words.

They subconsciousIy come to you when you’re working, you don’t even think about it. You know them. Getting completely away from them and having to start back.

But, though he feared he would have to use a teleprompter to help him remember the words as he gets back in the swing of things, that proved unnecessary.

According to the country music legend, he easily refound his groove and the lyrics came flooding back to him.

Though the lyrics issue fortunateIy turned out to be a non-issue, Keith commented on an unexpected issue that cropped up as he started singing again: finding the stomach muscles to sing loudly and longly.

That issue came not just from his not having been singing in recent years, but from the stomach surgery required for his cancer battle.

He said, The thing I had to overcome—the surgery I had on my stomach they had to stitch on my diaphragm. Not using it to sing every night, that is a muscle.

So I had to really work that to get it where I sing really really hard and really really vioIent and loud, I didn’t have that last 10 percent on the bottom where I could just belt anything. Like when I sang ‘McArthur Park’ at Carnegie Hall, it’s like opera stuff. So, I don’t know if I could do that, but what I do on stage is no problem.

Farmer Finds Pasture Empty, Sees All 32 Dead Cows In One Big Pile

This time of year, lightning strikes and thunderclaps are common in Missouri.

The recent extreme weather and water have caused significant harm to the area.

After feeding the dairy cows on a Saturday morning, Jared Blackwelder, a farmer in Springfield, and his wife Misty heard loud crashes, but they didn’t pay any attention to it.

However, Blackwelder discovered the horrifying sight when he returned to the field to gather the cows for the milking at night: his thirty-two dairy cows were dead and stacked on top of each other in the mulch.

“He went out to bring the cows in and that’s when he found them,” stated Stan Coday, president of the Wright County Missouri Farm Bureau, as reported by CBS News.It happens a lot. It does happen. The worst thing about this issue was the sheer number of animals affected.

Coday was informed by the local veterinarian conducting the examination that the cows’ deaths were actually caused by lightning.

Perhaps while the storm raged overhead, the cows coordinated their retreat under the trees.
“You’re at the mercy of mother nature,” Coday said, mentioning that a few years before he had lost a cow to lightning.

Farmers are aware of the possibilities, but Coday stated that it is very difficult to experience such a loss.

They are nothing like pets. But all of the ones I’m milking, I’ve grown,” Blackwelder told the Springfield News-Leader.They are a little different because you handle dairy animals twice a day. It knocks you quite hard.

It’s a financial disaster as well.

Although Blackwelder claimed to have insurance, the News-Leader expressed doubt about its ability to cover his losses.

According to his estimation, the value of each certified organic cow ranges from $2,000 to $2,500, meaning that the total is around $60,000.
According to Coday, “the majority of producers don’t have insurance.””Losing a cow means you lose everything.”

In answer to questions from neighbors, Coday, a beef cow breeder, would want to clarify that it was not possible to retrieve any meat from Blackwelder’s animals.

He said, “Those animals are damaged, and when he found them, it was clear they had been there for a few hours.”Processing an animal requires that it go through a specific process. It would not have been appropriate for humans to consume them.

Coday also mentioned that the majority of Missourians do not own a separate cow barn due to the state’s milder climate.
