Gotta Get Glasses

Over thirty years ago, I had surgery done on my eyes to correct my vision. This was even before the laser surgery. I was so happy with the results and have been seeing clearly for years. It was such a blessing. As was expected, I have been wearing reading glasses for a few years now […]

Successful Surgery

Our neighbor has been struggling for several weeks now with a severe intestinal infection. She was in the hospital for several days, then sent home to try to get in better shape to have surgery. A couple days ago when I opened the garage, I was surprised to see an ambulance. Our friend was on […]

Thoughtful Docs

The other day I sent messages to a couple of my mom’s doctors to let them know she had passed away. Yesterday her most recent primary care doctor called me to offer her condolences and check to see how I was doing. Today we received a hand written note from the cardiologist who cared for […]

Dizzy Relief

My daughter in law has been suffering from dizziness on and off for many years. She has been to several doctors who have not been able to help her. Recently, a chiropractor friend of theirs recommended a doctor for her. She has seen him a couple of times now and I talked with her about […]

Healing and Conversion

I heard a story today about a woman who had an aggressive type of kidney cancer and was given a few months left to live. Before the diagnosis she was a strongly independent person, in control of her own life. During the treatment she had a strong conversion experience. While she believed in God previously, […]

My sister has been having trouble with her eyes recently. They hurt and she was seeing zig zag lines of lights. She called the eye doctor today and they wanted to see her right away. After the testing, the doctor concluded that she had ocular migraines. He said it should subside on its own. Other […]

Good Conversation

It is difficult to see my mom struggling with anxiety more often now. Most of the cause is that she realizes she isn’t getting any better and is feeling that someone somewhere should be able to do something. Her nurse came today and they had a really good conversation. My mom typically will not talk […]

Well-being Affirmation

Today I had an appointment at the eye doctor. I hadn’t been there for a couple years, so it was time for a checkup. The tech who did all the prep and paperwork said I was doing a good job taking care of myself. I told him I cared for my parents and was doing […]

Receiving More Care

It’s been a challenging week. Thank you to those who have reached out. I do very much appreciate it! A couple weeks ago mom was feeling awful and we went to the Emergency room. They said she had a UTI and off we went. Last weekend she again was feeling terrible. Her blood pressure spiked, […]

New Smile

About a year ago, I decided to do something drastic for myself. I have never had straight teeth. Even after undergoing torturous treatments as a child. I have always been self-conscious of my smile, but refused to go through that again. But, as I got older, my teeth continued to move. I was chewing on […]
