I will certainly be praying for you and am sending you heaLing light, too. I’m so sorry you’ve not been feeling well. Rest well tonight and tomorrow. May you find some peace of mind, too.
Wishing you peace and clarity on your GI issues. It is so hard to know exactly what's going on, and new issues crop up all the time because our bodies are not machines, and so many things are interconnected. You can't pull one thread without more and more tangles appearing. A BIG yes to the stress factor. I have celiac disease and more recently I developed what I think is a histamine intolerance. Sometimes I can eat triggering foods and be fine and sometimes not; while I don't have the factors mapped out, I have enough experience to know that stress causes inflammation which makes your system way more likely to overreact.
Prayers for Rashmi and for Laynara.
So wonderful to hear about James. His story gives me hope.
Prayers and love sent to all who need it.
Also offering a prayer for all of America.
This is fantastic -- what a lovely prayer! Spirit is smiling down at you. Thank you for sharing your gift with us.
Thank you for your kind thoughts and wise feedback. I'm beginning to learn the cards (and hopefully trust myself in the process) so I will try a spread on this topic later today. Happy to hear that you are seeing a release for me; I feel that too. The FODMAP diet resonates with me, so I will check that out. The bottom line is, some of what I have been doing isn't working for me.
I have also drawn the Prince of Wands for myself this week, on two separate occasions. So it's significant that you pulled it as well -- I need to pay attention to its message. I was deeply moved by your words, Jeanne. I have struggled a lot throughout my life, but I never viewed that through the eyes of someone who is gifted. And you are spot-on about the expectations and those who didn't want me to shine back as a child and young adult. I was speechless when I read that. It's up to me to shine -- to allow myself to do that.
Thank you, dear friend. ?
@claire, @laynara, @gbs, @herondreams, @bluebelle, @lovendures, @ghandigirl, @jeanne-mayell and everyone,
Thank you for your words of support and prayers. They meant the world to me. I could feel the power of your prayers, and I feel lighter today.
Much love to all of you.
@ghandigirl. I love this piece you made. I see the Statue of Liberty popping out and the Baja Peninsula as a jewel, and Cape Cod juts out. So many details that delight. Thank you for sharing this wonderful work of art.
I'm praying for you and sending you love and healing light! I'm so sorry you are going though this. ? ❤️ ?
I've had mild food allergies/sensitivities in the past and the one thing that helped me was NAET therapy. I went to see a practitioner in my area in CT. I would google NAET and see if you can find one in your area. Mine helped me so much, I had gastro disorders and they went away. It was about 8-10 visits and she helped me where western medicine couldn't.
Update on James ( the miracle man) from his wife Nicole. Thank you for your continued prayers.
On Friday, they put in a smaller diameter trach and capped it to be sure he didn’t need it. This morning, after 4 days of no oxygen support (even at night), they REMOVED THE TRACH altogether!!! ??? His trach site will heal on its own, and James is happy to be free of the collar that kept the trach in place, which was like wearing a tie 24/7. We are THRILLED!!!
- He continues to have PT at the hospital. Yesterday, he made a lap around his room with a walker, which is awesome!
- After wondering why his food tasted so bland, James seems to be regaining his sense of taste! Although this is far from the most important issue he’s faced, we’re happy he can start to enjoy food again. Thankfully, God cares about the little things too!
- Now that his trach is out, plans to transfer him to a rehab facility can move forward (likely in the next few days)!
-
I am once again in awe of God’s goodness and faithfulness! James is smiling... he’s talking... he’s breathing like normal! These are all things I have longed for, and prayed for, and scarcely dared to hope for over the past several weeks. God has indeed redeemed him from trouble, and today I am praising God for his amazing grace to us!❤️Please pray for:
- His upper body strength to return. While his legs are getting stronger, his arm strength has been slower to return. He is still unable to eat, drink, or use his phone, which is frustrating when you spend most of your time in bed. (You think I would have learned to be more patient after the last several weeks! ?). Fortunately, “Hey, Siri!” has allowed him to initiate FaceTime calls with us.
- Despite all his improvements, he did still test positive for Covid last Friday. Pray for the virus to get totally out of his system and for him to test negative soon!
@deetoo I’m very sorry you’re dealing with this right now. I think we all are under stress that manifests in different new ways. I’m sending you prayers and peace and hope you find an easy solution to this problem. Peace dear one. ❤️☮️
@ghandigirl Your piece of art is so beautiful. Have you been collecting the buttons for some time?
@lovendures Wow! so good to hear that James is getting better! Thank you for letting us know.
@deetoo Praying that your appointment goes well tomorrow, and that you can find out exactly what is wrong, and what to do about it. Much love to ya!
