Walking Through Faith in Hard Times
December 30-21, 2022
Walking through faith in hard times has been one of the greatest challenges of my health journey. Living with a traumatic brain injury, chronic illness, fatigue, and uncertainty has tested me physically and emotionally, but God continues to strengthen my faith through every season.
My Faith Journey Through Pain and Recovery
Dec 30
7:45 in much pain. Arms still itching. Left side throbbing immensely. Left arm and hand stinging and numbish.
Song: In God’s Perfect Time
Scripture: John 16:33; Revelation 19-22; 3 John 1:2-4
Finished reading the Bible through for the year.
In a lot of pain today bad enough to take Rx pain medicine. Hope I don’t have to take it long.

Tried to work on Year in review pictures for Sunday, but could only sit at table for short time due to pain in my left armpit area. Had to take more pain rx and apply ice pack.

I’m so bored. I hate sitting around doing nothing, but I know rest is important right now to heal. I’m hurting immensely.
Symptoms: Headache off and on. One of cysts popped relieving some of the pressure. Body stiff and achy. Hands throbbing and tingling – left more than right. Underarm stinging and throbbing intensely. Low back aches. Hot & cold flashes off and on today. Thirsty. Craving chicken wings and frozen strawberries. Throat sore and hurts to swallow. Forearms itchy fiercely. Applied colloidal silver several times to ease itch. Part of the surgery area is still numb and I only feel pressure when applied. Left arm is numbish and tingling. Wrists ache to bones. It’s been raining off and on all day. Storming at times. Lightning and thunder sounded near by scaring me made me scream.
Thankful… 1. surgery is done. 2. Hair is growing back 3. Able to do a little bit in spurts 4. Finished reading the Bible for the year
Dec 31
7:20 up a few times thru the night to use restroom and adjust positions to try to get comfortable. Can only lay on my back or right side presently. Both upper arms ache deeply. Still tired.
8:20 woke to God Bless Ye Merry Gentlemen playing in my mind. Upper body aches fiercely. Upper arms throbbing. Slight headache.
Scripture: Genesis 1-3; Jude 1:21-25; Joshua 5:12
Pain is slowly easing. Able to go longer in between having to take pain reliever. Have a headache and feeling a bit under the weather today.
