Climb a mountain step by step.
Yesterday I climbed a mountain and I turned around.
I made it about a 1/4 of the way. Steep at parts but I did it.
I heard a comment from a friend that said" I am not a vessel as much as I am trying to be in cooperation with Gods will in my life."
I started IVIG in 2010 but was ill for at least three years before deteriorating. I do not even look like myself. I look like my mother when she was still with us. Strange to see my dear body so heavy. I just keep going, just keep fighting back. It is so amazing three weeks ago I was in a wheel chair. The hike was hard only in my calves very painful. My breathing was great! The tests last week showed 110% capacity! Even with still having the low IgA that protects my lungs I could climb. No pain in my low back either! Some fatigue today not much though. It was so peaceful out in nature.
This has been a long road to recovery.

Kathy and Dr Nemeh
My
husband took me to Cleveland Oh this last weekend. The treatment was
unconventional medicine with a heaping teaspoon of faith and hope, but
mostly LOVE. Dr Nemeh used red Lazar and green Lazar along with a form
of acupuncture along the meridian lines. Used also was a type of low
frequency magnetic. This with prayer. Love seems to be the factor in
all of those healed he believes. It is the connection to the God of
love through His Son Jesus. I do not claim to understand all things. It
was not just basic mind over mater here. I have been pain free in my low
spine since our second visit. It took over two hours a visit but his
attitude and serine way was so refreshing.
During the first
treatment it was like the pain was gathered into balls here and there.
Then that night the ligaments and muscles moved. The next day the
treatment went as was the day before but at this moment in time when I
was distracted with fear he changed my focus with a word spoken and at
that instant my back changed from a hard mass of bones to putty. I was
in a sitting position and he let me down flat on my back. NO pain. My
husband was so concerned I might scream out for this was not a position
I have held in years.
Now I am pain free in my low spine. Other
spots hurt here and there but not my low spine. Even after a long flight
home in a sardine can of a jet plane.
At that instant of change
in my spine the best way I can describe what I felt was ....the absence
of fear. The next step for me would have been spine surgery for stenosis
with nerve involvement that was effecting my ability to walk and to
have continence.

Remembering days of yor and update.
I see it has almost been a full year ago I last visited this blog. I think that the long absence was a time of letting go and healing the loss of all that I used to do and be. Last week my dear friend and nurse Ashley asked if I would share my knowledge of homemaking with her.
A large part of my life was spent homemaking intentionally. It was a time of great strength and vigor. Those years set aside for a time are now beginning to speak to my soul. My strength is improving now. I have IVIG every three weeks. With the exception of joint and spine issues I am keeping healthy. Recently daily meals and food prep is coming back on line for my family. I push a little harder to keep us all fed and on a budget.
My spirit was crushed and broken those years after my knee replacement. The time in the nursing home really stole my light.
It is my hope to fan my flame and begin to burn brighter.
The teens are home for summer and with the many friends they have meals are a real challenge to keep up on.
My strength is limited so I am trying to be diligent to do what I am able to do.

Older women likewise teach the younger women...
• how to love their children
• how to be self-controlled
• how to be pure
• how to be keepers at home
• how to be kind and submissive (not subservient) to their own husbands. (See Titus 2:3-5)

By Maya Angelou
That a man should have to seek Him first to find her.'
When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not shouting 'I'm clean living,'
I'm whispering 'I was lost, Now I'm found and forgiven.'
When I say... 'I am a Christian' I don't speak of this with pride.
I'm confessing that I stumble and need Christ to be my guide.
When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not trying to be strong.
I'm professing that I'm weak and need His strength to carry on.
When I say.. 'I am a Christian' I'm not bragging of success.
I'm admitting I have failed and need God to clean my mess.
When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not claiming to be perfect,
My flaws are far too visible, but God believes I am worth it.
When I say... 'I am a Christian' I still feel the sting of pain...
I have my share of heartaches, so I call upon His name.
When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not holier than thou,
I'm just a simple sinner Who received God's good grace, somehow!
Words have power. Here are a few of my favorite sayings.
- A warm cup of tea is like a cuddle with a friend.
- The North American Indians have a more eloquent word for ‘friend’ than we do in English. In their language, the word for friend literally means, “the one who carries my sorrows on his back.”
- Return with Honor
- The sage anticipates things that are difficult while they are easy, and does things that would become great while they are small. All difficult things in the world are sure to arise from a previous state in which they were easy, and all great things from one in which they were small. Therefore the sage, while he never does what is great, is able on that account to accomplish the greatest things."
- "HOME IS WHERE YOUR STORY BEGINS"
- “Live so that when your children hear these words they think of you… Fairness Caring Integrity Honesty Love Trust.”
- "O Lord help my words to be gracious and tender today, for tomarrow I may have to eat them."
- "No man has ever been shot while doing the dishes"

This was given to me for the third time in just a few weeks.
"For the LORD your God has arrived to live among you. He is a mighty savior. He will rejoice over you with great gladness. With his love, he will calm all your fears. He will exult over you by singing a happy song."
