Hebrews 4:16

LET US THAN APPROACH GOD’S THRONE OF GRACE WITH CONFIDENCE, SO THAT WE MAY RECEIVE MERCY AND FIND GRACE TO HELP US IN OUR TIME OF NEED.

Hi all. I know it has been a minute, but the good news is the reason why you hadn’t heard from me is because I was having a pretty decent few months and as you all know by now, when I’m doing good I just like to enjoy the moment and focus on life and things in the real world lol. It was so fun, I celebrated the holidays and I was pretty well than. Right before the holidays my aunt and uncle came in to town and a few of my cousins and we surprised both my aunt and uncle with a 70th bday party and than also included my sister and so we also celebrated her 40th bday, so it was one big shebang which was a lot of fun. Life was going good I finally found a editor for my book and so that was moving along amazingly well, and still is by the way, it is actually almost done. It will be printed very soon, im thinking mid august maybe. Like I said life was running smoothly until I woke up one day and my body was just like, vengeance is mine wahahaha 😂😂😂

I woke up one day and noticed my tummy felt very bloated but I ignored it because I figured oh it’s nothing I probably either need more miralax (laxative) or I’m close to getting my period. After a few days of taking the miralax though I still was not getting any relief, but I still hadn’t gotten my period so I figured ok it must be that. I continue to wait and still no period and so now we’re like almost 2 months with no period, which was sooo unlike me and now my stomach is getting harder and harder and more bloated and now is so distended that it looked like I was pregnant! But still I thought nothing of it because my family kept saying my stomach was just fat because I was eating more than I ever did, so at the time I said: ok I could see that yeah maybe that is all it is. Than Christmas Eve came and I started my period which I thought was a good thing, I said; oh it’s finally back on track so I will finally get some relief, the bloating/distention will go down and everything will be great!

Well unfortunately that did not happen lol, the swelling did not go down and now I was having some weird female things going on, and I won’t get to detailed about those symptoms just because I know some people are uncomfortable talking about female things, I’m sure there’s already some people getting squeamish just because I mentioned the word period lol, but anyways yeah I was having some female issues plus the distention was getting out of control and now I was also having stomach pains, rib pain, back pain and even chest pain, bad chest pain, I imagine that how I felt was very similar to how you feel during a heart attack, but I was very confused by that because I knew it couldn’t be a heart attack because I just went to the cardiologist days before this started and everything checked out fine, so at this point I decided to stop trying to be the doctor and stop trying to do a diagnosis on myself and just go to the real Dr and get checked out.

I go to my primary Dr he sees how distended I am and hears about my female issues so he says; ok maybe it’s time you saw a OBGYN, so I go to the OBGYN Dr and they take one look at me and are like ummm you’re so brittle we are scared to death to touch you, so they basically tell me wait it out and see if it resolves itself. Well of course it never resolved it self so I went back and both me and my primary Dr were like ok we have to push them not to be so scared of touching me, so my primary Dr talks them into at least doing a in office ultrasound, they did that and saw everything looked pretty decent so next step was they could put me on a low dose birth control and see if my issues get solved from doing that. Well the birth control got me so sick I thought I was dying lol, and yes it fixed my “female” issue but it didn’t fix it for long because of the fact that I couldn’t stay on it soo that whole dance was basically a waste of time lol.

During all that we also realized that even when the birth control had started to fix my female issues it still did not fix the discomfort in my belly nor did it fix the distention, so my belly was just getting bigger and bigger to the point I went back to my primary Dr and he said ok let’s do a ct scan and if that doesn’t show anything let’s call your surgeon and see what ideas he has because as my primary Dr always says; two heads are better than one lol

As I suspected the CT scan didn’t show a single thing so it was off to the surgeon we went, the surgeon took one look at me and says you have compartment syndrome, to hear more about the diagnosis and all the ugly details about what compartment syndrome is than watch the video 👇

If your at this part of the blog than that means you read and watched everything about what’s going on and you know by now the diagnosis isn’t the greatest, it’s been a long few weeks my friends. I need you all to please pray that the Lord gives me strength not only physically but mentally because this is a hard one, I’m so bloated and uncomfortable that I physically cannot even turn on my side because my stomach is so distended so please pray for strength and guidance not only for me and my family but also the Doctors, thanks in advance all.

I will say; through this process so far the one thing the Lord keeps putting on my heart is keep moving forward, don’t give up , just because a death sentence is spoken over your life does not mean you lay down and die, as long as you have air in your lungs and you’re able to breathe than that means you’re alive so just keep your focus on that, keep your focus on life, not the things that are going on in it, or even your “feelings”, just keep focusing on Life. For example I’m staying focused on my learning to cook and my book and my vlogging and the many things I desire to do. That is what the Lord keeps showing me, so I am going to cling to that and not dwell on “time” but instead stay focused on life.

I really just wanted to update you on my health and share everything I been going through in hopes that it encourages you to stay strong and keep moving forward. Don’t feel bad for me please, even if my time does come to an end sooner than later, which I’m not saying will, I am just saying even if it did, that’s ok because I have had an amazingly blessed life that I am so grateful for, so do not feel sorry for me and if you do want to help me, help me by helping yourself, if you are a workaholic, stop, if you’re to scared to travel/fly get over it and start traveling, if your kid asks you to take them out to a basketball game but yet you have to work, take off, the job will always be there but your kid might not so take them to that game. Now of course I am not saying to act stupid and put yourself in debt, do these things responsibly of course, everything in moderation my friends😁

I just want to say before I end this blog that this Sunday is Easter Sunday as I am sure you all know, so please remember what he did for you on that cross and how he rose again on that Sunday. We are all saved time and time again and it is all because of his sacrifice. THANK YOU JESUS FOR YOUR GRACE🙏

That’s it for today my friends, thanks for watching/reading and most importantly thanks for praying for me 🙏

(LIFE IS HARD BUT I AM ALIVE AND THRIVING) 2FT CRIPPLED LADY CHRISTMAS/NEW YEARS VLOG/BLOG

JAMES 1:17 NIV

EVERY GOOD AND PERFECT GIFT IS FROM ABOVE, COMING DOWN FROM THE FATHER OF THE HEAVENLY LIGHTS, WHO DOES NOT CHANGE LIKE SHIFTING SHADOWS.

Hi all, I know long time no see LOL. I know I haven’t written since like august but I really don’t have a good excuse as to why I haven’t wrote. The truth is I just haven’t had much to write about and I have been putting so much of my energy trying to get my YouTube channel to grow that I really haven’t put much energy into blogging I’m sorry, I love blogging but I just feel it is really important I have my social media stuff (like YouTube) in perfect condition By the time the book releases, and there is a good reason as to why I want that set up before the book is out and I will go into more detail at the end of this blog about why I want my YouTube channel running good. I know I been saying the book will be out soon for like six years, but it just is not easy guys and gals, ladies and gents, the whole editing part is a nightmare! Especially when you’re trying to do it on your own because you can’t afford to hire a editor and than also you are someone like me who can’t really put hours at a time into it because I keep getting sick or my meds will make me fall asleep and I know that sounds so bad, but honest to GOD, when you are someone as severe as me and on so many different meds, some that make you very sleepy, and than are in extreme pain 24/7 which also makes you sleepy, it is just hard to put as much energy as a average person puts into things. I have to take little breaks throughout the process of this all, so that is another reason it is taking so long, but the Lord finally blessed me with meeting a lady that used to have a career in the writing and editing industry so this person is willing to help me at no cost and so far we’re working great together, so my point to all this is, it is very close to being officially released lol. 2022 like I said in my Vlog was very relaxing and chill but at the same time like I also said it was a year of acceptance and also a year of just learning how to give grace not only to others but to myself, trying to be more patient, more understanding and also just learning how to be more honest and open with people about what I am feeling, and because I’ve allowed myself to be honest and open more, it really has been kind of freeing to be honest, I just feel like the weight of the world is lifted off my shoulders and I am just really focusing on enjoying every second I have.

I do not want this to be a long blog because the Vlog is already like 22 minutes soo I wanted to make this on here short and sweet, but yeah life is going well right now, I truly am blessed to have the people in my life that I do have. It was a really sweet Christmas this year too because my mom got my dad a very special Christmas gift and we all had a really special moment as a family celebrating a pretty big mile Stone in our parents lives, and I think I can speak on behalf of both my siblings when I say; watching them achieve what they just achieved was a huge blessing and I just can’t even begin to describe what that moment felt like watching my dad open that gift. I truly regret not getting that moment on camera but it was a little to personal to record so we will have to have that memory locked in our minds eye forever that’s all lol. It was also so incredible to be home this year! If you all don’t remember, last years Christmas was awful, not only did half my family have Covid but also I was extremely sick (not Covid) but I was sick and was basically fighting for my life, I spent 3 or 4 days in the ICU so last year was a nightmare! And once again I was not sure I was making it out of that one, but thank you JESUS I survived once again.

There are two things I have learned throughout the years of struggles, the first thing is acceptance, accept the place you are standing in, no matter if it is good or bad, accept it, feel it, be real, live in it, Soak it all in, the good, the bad, and the ugly, just soak it all up and truly live in the now, live in honesty, don’t do the typical “Christian” thing and convince yourself that you’re living in faith and walking faith out when really you are just living in denial, if you’re going through a trial, feel that trial, and be honest about it, but at the same time don’t let it control or define you, because that is where your faith comes into play, know that no matter what, you are surrounded by the king, but if your having a moment where you feel anxious, or a moment of feeling confused, or hurt, than feel it, be honest about it, let the Lord walk you through that heartache, get to know it as you would a friend, but don’t just try to avoid it and say because I’m a child of God I am fine, because in that moment that you’re walking that pain out, you are not fine, and that’s ok! It does not make you less of a believer if you admit that. For example, last year when I was sitting in the ICU on Christmas morning and Doctors were looking at me in confusion and saying things like, it’s serious and you could die, but yet we have no clue how to treat you, of course I was feeling all the feelings that you feel when you go through something like that, I remember there was a moment I just laid in that bed crying out to the Lord telling him how exhausted I was and hurt, and disappointed and lonely and angry and in that moment I just wanted to shut down and sleep for days on end but at the same time I knew he held me and I knew because he held me I would be ok. All I kept hearing the Lord say is that expression that says: this to shall pass, that’s all I kept hearing him say, I knew his hand was on me and I knew I had things to accomplish yet. I knew no matter what I saw around me that did not define me, because my circumstances did not define me nor did it determine my future, I knew the only one who held my future in his hands was the Lord. One more thing I want to add, please if you are someone like me who is battling sickness, trust your Doctors, please trust them, God put them in your path for a reason, don’t think that you’re a better Christian if you fight things on your own, that is a lie, if there is any lie from the enemy that’s one of them and it is sad because more Christian’s fall for that lie daily. Doctors are there to help us, is there a little medical “politics” yes, but that doesn’t mean that there bad for us, ignore the politics and do what you have to, to take care of you, I see so many people suffering and it’s heart breaking to see because they do not have to be suffering, their choosing to suffer because they are convincing themselves that, that’s what the Lord wants, because they feel the Lord doesn’t trust Doctors, so he’d rather have them suffer, wrong, he’d rather have you take care of yourself, it is not the Lord who has the issue with Doctors, it’s you who has the issue, so get over the issue you have with them and let them do what they have to do to help keep you alive.

I know I got a little off track but this is something the Lords really been laying heavily on my heart this year because I see so many people suffering and that breaks my heart because they do not have to suffer, they are not supposed to suffer, so if you are choosing what you think Christ is telling you but than that Choice is making you suffer, than re-evaluate everything you think you know and really let the Lord work on your heart. Well everyone I hope you have a very merry and blessed Christmas and please if you can go watch my Vlog and also if you can join my Patreon page and help support everything I’m doing I’d really appreciate it, all those links are below, I’d love to have a goal of getting my channel to where it can make at least a little bit of revenue because what I really want to do is take that money and pick a family or two to give it to and bless, that is why I’m working hard at trying to grow this channel, not for myself but for others, there are so many people, especially in the world of disabilities who need that extra help, you do not know how many times my mother has come home from my hospitals pharmacy and has been so sad because she just witnessed a parent not being able to afford their child’s medications because it cost hundreds, some times even thousands of dollars, dollars that most people just do not have. I know more than likely I will never get my channel to where it’s making the kind of revenue to help someone with their thousands of dollars in medical bills, but I’d love if I could get enough revenue where I could help at least one family per year where I could at least help pay for an important prescription, or even buy them certain medical equipment that they may need, so that’s my goal this year, it is getting my channel to where it makes revenue and I am so so close, but I need your help to fully get there. I need you to share all my social channels with your friends and get them to join my pages (YouTube, tiktok, Facebook, instagram) and all those links are listed on my home page of not only this blog but also listed in the description of the YouTube video that is below in this particular blog article, but also if I could get people to join my Patreon page, that would help too, let’s help be the light in the dark guys, I am counting on you 😘🙏 GOD bless, love you, we will talk again soon 😁
