I'm doing better!

Hello Saints,  

I am finally feeling better but still exhaustion and cramping can come on suddenly.  I covet your prayers for a total restoration from the severe attack of pancreatitis that put me in the hospital for 6 days last week.

HE GIVES ME STRENTH!!

Have a great new week serving our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ/Yeshua

 

Oh BOY was I sick

 Hi saints,

I just returned home from 6 days in the hospital.  I had a severe case of pancreatitis.  Now to figure out how to keep a pancreas more happy when I hardly eat any sugar.  There must be more to it than that.  It was confusing to me as my gall bladder had no stones and my liver was happy.  

I was put on narcotic level drugs for the pain and for the nausea for 5 days.  I was also on the IV/ice chip diet for 4 days.  This was to give my pancreas a chance to totally rest.  Then I went to broth and finally to soft food.  Now I have no diet restrictions except not to eat much fat.  

It was confusing to all of the nurses and the doctor I was assigned to that I would have pancreatitis. The usual causes are high alcohol consumption; gall stones; high triglycerides, or a stone on top of the pancreas. Being I had none of those, why was I so sick?

A bit of light came when I mentioned to my doctor that I have MS which is an auto-immune disease.  "OH," he said "It must be autoimmune pancreatitis!"  And off he went to study that.

When the doc returned the next day, he told me that he had learned that there are 2 kinds of autoimmune pancreatitis.  I guess there is a test to differentiate which one I have.  When my good doctor tried to order the test, he wasn't able to because he's not a gastroenterologist.  sigh

So he's sending me to one and I need you all to pray that I can get in soon.  All of the nurses said that it's almost impossible to get in to one but our God is the God of impossibilities.  PLEASE pray that I can get an appointment with a person who can give me the test; find out what this is all about; and set me on a path towards healing.

I am not well yet.  I still have pain and today there is a fever brewing so I thought I would come here and ask you to pray for me.  I bless you for thinking of me to the Father.

Other than that, harvest is right around the corner.  I so want to be strong so that I can help with the harvest.  

I love you all,

Dawn

PS  This picture is not me but how I must have looked in the hospital.  I was in extreme pain with nausea and exhaustion.  May God bless each nurse and my doctor for getting me through the worst of it.  

Which Harvest Matters MOST?

 I've just returned from 10 days in Minnesota with my daughter and her family.  I was needed to help them through sickness and their gardening rush.  As usual, it's hard to tear myself away from them but my work needs to be done here.

  It's September now and the days are shorter.  This week the temps are going to be in the lower 90s, so Summer is still here, but we can feel it slowly slipping away.  I went in search of a poem about how I am feeling and found this one.

  It's so true.  We have tons of work on a farm and especially at harvest time.   Recently a friend had his father die in a farm accident.  Please pray for that family but also pray for the safety of all farmers everywhere.  

  Being my garden is calling me, I will leave you all with this lovely poem.  The harvest that matters the most is the empty souls needing Jesus.  Let's share Him with everyone if it's only through a smile.  I've had smiles change my whole day for the better.

  May God bless your week,

  Dawn
