2015 was the year I discovered a serious illness. It was treatable so I started my treatment. I took different medications for several months until I was completely cured. After treatment, I discovered that people who took the medications I was taking had shorter lives. The maximum lifespan is only 10 years.
That alone was enough to destroy me. It is impossible to imagine what I went through.
Last year was the first time I noticed side soreness and lumps in my throat. I couldn’t bear to think of my children being left in this world. This year, the pain became much more severe. After recommending a series of blood tests and scans as well as other X-rays, I was able to summon the courage to visit the hospital. After seeing all the tests, I was numb and began to cry from fear alone.
Uncertainty made it impossible for me to eat, sleep, take a bath, and cook when I returned home. This made it difficult to care for my children. It will take several days for the results to be available. It was so difficult to talk to my husband about this because he would dismiss it as a joke and tell me to not worry.
Mimsters, on the day of my blood test results, I wept all the way to the doctor’s. He examined me, and told me I was in good health. I replied, “Doctor. Check one again.” He said that my kidneys, lungs and other organs were in good health. He recommended that I see a physical therapist for my back and side pain.
That was the day that I felt most happy in my 31 years of life on Earth. Why do you think God can’t save me? Don’t give in to terror. I worried about nothing and I know you are too. Dear Sis, God didn’t bring you this far to abandon your family. You will see your children’s children in Jesus’ name. Be optimistic. The Lord is always with you.
