Dearest Friends :friends:
I'm very sorry for being inactive for so long and not contributing to the discussions, I'm not really sure if anyone has even noticed that I hadn't been posting here or at the shelter forum and others for awhile but there is a reason for this ..
I would like to please ask for your prayers since I had a brain aneurism while having a migrain not so long ago and I am starting to have memory problems.
I have been undergoing MRI's and ultra sounds and still need to get an EEG done next month which is an electrical brain scan.
I have also been dealing with migraines almost daily and experiencing vissual disdurbances and imbalances that make me sick ...
but what frightends me the most is that my memory and attention span are deteriorating.
All the knowledge and insights that I had attained thru reading GODs word are getting harder and harder to remember and are disappearing ...
My mind used to go a million miles and hour and spiritual impressions came to me constantly, I had beautiful dreams and my nights were filled with thoughts of GOD , questions were being answered by the spirit and I was in heavenly bliss and now I sit here without a thought or question and my nights are dull and my slummer an empty canvass.
I am terrified of what may happen to me and I'm only 50 years old.
There is so much that I still would love to discuss but I cannot recall scriptures and searching for them is very time consumming .... I only have the impressions left to me by the spirit..
Most of the day I sit in a daze without any thoughts and I'm wondering what is going to happen to me .. does Jehovah still care for me and what is my future going to be since I'm having a hard time remembering.
I pray that Jehovah will always be with me ... in my mind forever ... if this is all that will be left for me to know I will be at peace .
Maybe it is a blessing in disquise ... sometimes it hurts too much to remember the past , maybe it's better to forget everything and everyone and just hope in the love of GOD and in knowing that I will be with Him very soon.
Anything is possible with Jehovah .... and I pray that He will have mercy on me .
much love to all, LC :heartbeat:
I am so sorry to hear of this sis :hug: and I pray for your recovery from these things. I can't imagine how frightened you mustfeel right now. I am sorry too about the migraines. I have had them also and know what a horror they are. Please know you will be in my thoughts and more importantly my prayers--without a doubt you are much loved by Jehovah and Jesus and no matter what they will be holding you close to them. I love you too and am deeply saddened to hear this tonight. Please pm me if there is anything I can do for you--- :cheekkiss: ...with deep love and concern your friend Wolfie :heartbeat:
Thank you sweetie, for posting that. Yes, I did miss your presence as did, I'm sure, many others.
I can certainly relate to your problem as I have a couple of brain aneurysms and there is always the fear that I'll have a bleed.
For what it's worth, Cannabis is protective of the brain and has experimentally been administered immediately after a stroke and, like I said, it protects brain cells from being damaged. However....it's still illegal in most states. If you are interested, check with compassion clubs. I don't know what they're called in the US. There are many here in Canada.
BTW...it's also a cure for migraine!
Love, Rez :giverose:
Hi, Aurora. :hibye: Of course you have been missed, you silly girl. :siskiss: :hug: :grouphug: And, you ARE loved. :love: By all that know you, I am sure. I am so sorry to hear about your trials and tribulations in the flesh.
8 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.--1 Corinthians 13:8, NIV (as if I had to remind you).
You said:

It is far too easy for us to become too trusting in our own knowledge; it can even become our pseudo-identity. If some of that is melting away, do not fret. It just opens the way for God to draw even closer to you. :)
And, you also said:
does Jehovah still care for me and what is my future going to be since I'm having a hard time remembering?
Now, come on, Aurora, dear sister of mine. Really, is God's love conditional? :thinking: We both know better than that. :giverose:
"Prayers are us," as wolfie says. Fear nothing. Just trust in Him.
Much Christian Love to You, Aurora. :heartbeat: your friend and brother, isomam
:giverose:
Please, Jehovah God,
Take care of Aurora and watch over her in this time of distress. Also whatever health treatment, in whatever form that she needs, please guide her to it.. Please take her fear away and we are anxiously awaiting the kingdom new earth where this will be a thing of the past.
Jesus name, amen:pray:
Dear Aurora,
Yes, I remember you well and your lovely posts.
I feel so much for your plight. The little I know about our brain functionings is what an amazing organ it is. Perhaps when it misfunctions, goes into 'shutdown' as it sounds what it happening to you...time, time and rest dear Aurora. Especially as you mentioned how your mind travels a million miles per hour.:)
Try not to be overwhelmed by fear, Jehovah knows exactly what is happening and of course he cares for each and every one of us. How could He not?
We all are praying for your recovery and that you have many more years of healthy life to live.

:airkiss: Dear dear sister Linda - yes, I have missed you SO much. I had no idea you were going through such a troublesome time.:crybaby: I so wish I could be there with you physically to help in some way... (Rez's suggestion is perhaps more possible there in Alaska:) )
God loves you, dear one, and His Son promised to NEVER leave you - he is right there beside you, do not doubt it!:friends:(everything Iso said - "ditto"!)
A suggestion I will add - get some cd's or tapes of the Bible being read and instead of studying, just listen - just soak in the Word of God. Refresh yourself with the love of God that emmanates from each spoken word. His Word will remind you how very much He does love you and how He will keep you safe to Himself - you are HIS baby!
Sometimes, even though we KNOW it, we are taken by surprise at the depth and breadth of God's true love for His children - and we are humbled anew by the immensity of it. Let yourself be surprised and humbled all over again; let Him speak directly to your heart and He will comfort your soul while our caring Shepherd holds you near to his own heart, dear little sheep!:hug:
The Word of God really does speak to our hearts over our brains, so no worries sister. His Truth is His love - may your heart be filled to overflowing and no truth will be lost!
:heartbeat:You are SOOOOOO loved!:heartbeat:
:cheekkiss:I love you too, Linda - and will definitely keep you in my prayers as well. :pray: :grouphug:
Your sister and friend, Willa

Cannabis is destructive to the soul. It opens the door for unclean spirits. Our sister requests prayer and you suggest weed? Shame on you.
Thankyou so very much my dear friends for all of your prayers and encouragement ...:heartbeat:
I am so gratefull to all of you for showing me such love and compassion :cheekkiss:
Yes, it is very frightening to say the least when one can feel memories slipping away and see that ones attention span is not what it should be ... some days are better than others and I truly hope that it is just an overload of information and that my brain needs some rest.
My life in the past 15 years has been very hectic and stressfull with to many anxieties, worries and obligations .. it seems that everything around me falls on my shoulders, everyone wants me to fix everything that goes on in their life and nobody is there for me when I am weak or sick and I just cannot deal with it all anymore :cry:
I have been praying to Jehovah to please take these burdens away from me since they have been causing me depressions and many sleepless nights .
It seems that all of a sudden all my thoughts and worries have been shut off ... now I just take it day by day and even tho my life seems to be empty, my toughts are turned to Jehovah constantly.
I'm not sure what is going to happen in the days ahead but as long as I can look out my 2 story window and admire the beauty of His creations and be in awe of how much He loved and loves us to give us these beautiful things .. I will be at peace.
Thankyou once more for all of your comforting words and prayers ... and may Jehovah be with you always :heartbeat:
much love and gratitude to all of you, LC :airkiss::bouncyhearts:

Dearest Justin ... I'm sure Resolute didn't mean it to come out in a negative way ... I have look into scientific studies of this plant and yes, it is used for various things.
I truly believe that for every sickness GOD has created a plant to cure it ... but if this is the one , well I'm not sure.
I know that my daughter who recently gave birth to a baby boy would have died had it not been for this plant ... she could not keep water or food down during her pregnancy and had to be brought to the emergeny room 4 times in the first 3 months and hooked on IV's because she was so dehydrated, her kidneys were failing too and she looked like a skeleton .. after trying various nausea medications prescribed by the doctor including the pill form of weed which didn't help ... the suggestion was made by this doctor to get some street Meds.
My daughter was smoking weed throughout her pregnancy upon her doctors approval and guess what ... she didn't have anymore problems eating and drinking ... her kidneys got better and she delivered a healthy child who is very smart for his few months.
I understand that taking drugs is wrong when it is taken just for pleasure or fun or whatever but if it saves your life and is benneficial to ones health then why not.
I personally would not smoke it but if I had to take a perscription drug that contained these chemicals for the healing of my body then by all means I would.
GOD created this plant for a good purpose ... it is Man that abuses this purpose and makes it into something detestable.
much love to you Bro , :heartbeat: LC
Hi Aurora

Your expressions of faith also show a beautiful attitude that is of comfort and encouragement to those that relate to/are effected by challenging physical and emotional stress issues.
Matthew 11:28...
"Come to me, all of you who are weary and loaded down with burdens, and I will give you rest.
Place my yoke on you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.
For my yoke is pleasant, and my burden is light."
May our Father by means of our Master Jesus enable seekers of/for truth, to endure.
Christian love and appreciation,
gogh
Dear Aroura,

justin, you know these things just how?!? personal experience?

Treat ... older women as mothers, ... with absolute purity.--1 Timothy 5:1, 2, NIV.
This is how you would talk to your mother? I say: SHAME ON YOU!!!
He who answers before listening—that is his folly and his shame.--Proverbs 18:13, ibid.
Why don't you do yourself (and all the rest of us) a favor and inform yourself as to what is being discussed and suggested before giving any further raving, ranting, scathing replies?
Here is the link that smoldering wick kindly and discreetly provided (post #13) to the seven-part story of one man's crusade to help his fellowman -- without charge -- through use of a natural substance: hemp oil.

Why do big medicine, big pharmaceuticals, and politicians fight so vigorously against such a grass-roots campaign which has no evil agenda and does nothing but good?!? Because YOU CANNOT PATENT A PLANT! Therefore there is no profit motive in it for them. Only the prospect of profit loss.
Please watch and listen to all seven episodes and then come back and tell us what you have to say.
