In so many ways, we truly share a lot in common. My faith is very strong, yet I still wrestle with inner struggles that can make me feel like I’m screaming inside. I don’t know if I ever told you, but when I went to heaven, Jesus reminded me that if I came back, life would be hard. He was right. It has been.
Over time, I’ve learned different coping techniques—small ways to help me keep moving, to survive, and to stay grounded in the middle of it all. They’re not perfect, but they help me find moments of peace when things feel overwhelming. Humor gets me through most. But the rescheduled surgery would have thrown my normal coping techniques in to the food processor of you known what I mean. You are a strong strong woman. The one Helen Ready sang about.
We are between doctor appointments and tests right now, with someone in my family, and all I can think is: God has a plan.... thank you for sharing this.
So much of what you write, I can relate to. Our timing is certainly not our own. Trusting in challenging times is hard.
So true
Oh my Deb,

Thank you so much. You’re stronger than you think you are.

Yes and please hold on to that word 🙏🏾
11 years post diagnosis and surgery I can tell you that your calendar is your friend. And flexibility is her sister. They work together in harmony.
I love this.
