My life has been quite busy trying to stay on top of my medical issues, getting medical supplies and keeping my doctors and other medical personnel informed on everything going on. With the craziness of everything, it can be easy to get tangled up in the demands of the world. It seems whoever has the most urgent need gains my attention.
Recently, my perspective changed. A single communication alerted my family that a family member suffered a stroke. The person made it to the hospital and is alive. But unfortunately, there has been a lot of complications which have arisen. The situation will need delicate care and lots of prayer.
As I sit in my bed, exhausted from trying to keep up with the world, I ponder how much of my time I am wasting. I have dramatically cut back on the amount of time I have been online, but still, I feel as though I spend too much of my time not being productive.
So with that, I think I will spend even less time online in the coming weeks. It will be a welcomed hiatus from the noise of social media. It will give me time to spend with my family and appreciate how fragile this life is. It will give me time to pray and petition God for a full and complete recovery for my family member.
Keeping your Family Member who had the stroke held up to Jesus for His health, wholeness and well-being. Re: your productiveness... if it hadn't been for your "ministry" of excellent information and knowledgeable counseling on issues surrounding vent life... we wouldn't have HAD as long a life together as we did. When my Husband was ready to go to Jesus July 13, 2023, he did so after a refreshing reprieve from the many complications of respiratory problems and severe dementia. He and our Family felt we had more power in making decisions all along the way regarding healthcare and being able, ABLE to recognize when it wasn't its best and HAVING TRUE KNOWLEDGE of how to rectify it...all because YOU fulfilled something you had in your heart to do all along over the internet. Thank you Mitowarrier and Sister in Christ.
