Debbie, I had that eye surgery September 2020. If was not as bad as I thought it would be. I had to do the face down positioning. That was the hardest part. Prayers for you and quick healing. Reply
Thank you, for letting me know, they told me I would be totally asleep so not sure its the same but it maybe?? So glad you did well. Reply
Oh, Debbie, I have been praying for you. I will be 76 in October and I do take something for anxiety. Your feelings are the same as mine. I am now a caregiver for my husband. He is in bed most of the time. I pray daily for the Lord to give me strength to do what I can. I don’t want to get short or say things I shouldn’t, but it is hard sometimes. I have a sister that has had strokes in both her eyes and she can’t see to read or paint like she once did. I have a younger sister that I have been taking to the doctor at Grandview. She has no one else except my granddaughter cleans her house once a month. Please know that I pray for you daily. Love and prayers, Mary Hicks Reply
Mary, God bless you sweetheart, you and I have never met in person, although we live so close to each other. I hear you and I can relate to so much that you are saying. Hand in there, I’ll remember you in my thoughts and my prayers. Love and (((hugs))) Reply
I look forward everyday to seeing your posts. You have the right approach with God. Stay true and look for the joy God has put in every day just for you. Love you Linda Boomer Reply
I listen to this video on You Tube all the time its called Let Go and Trust God over coming Worry Insprirational and Motivational Video and also one called Give it to God it really helped me this last month as i struggled with some kind of horrible rash that covered my body with debilitating burn and itch………37 straight nights with 1 or 2 hrs sleep has left me exhausted ,worried but now i know i had a biopsy and blood work and its all normal so i dont have any autoimmune disease so thats a blessing but i still have the rash and itch and they just dont know what it is.So on to the next meds i feel like a lab rat………but i will believe its just for a season and God will bring me through it and i hope when you listen to some of these videos i hope it sooths your soul and know God Loves You Reply
Bev, that is good news no autoimmune issues they can be so trying. I hope that is rash and itching go away soon my friend and you are back feeling awesome!! I have some things like that I get daily sent to my email, my Verse of the day, then Greg Laurie, and I enjoy them each morning before I even get out of the bed. Love to you, have a great day. Reply
God Bless you for being a beautiful soul to others through your own struggles ,,love from Canada Reply
Dear Debbie, Thank you for sharing with us. I’m sorry you’re feeling this way and honestly feel like there are a lot of others who feel the same way. I hope you will enjoy being away from FB and rest and spend time with family like you’re getting to do. You are in my thoughts and prayers every day. We know that we’re blessed and yet at times the road is hard to bear. We lift our eyes and voices to God and ask for help. God Bless you my sweet friend and I love you and your spirit. 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻 Reply
Amen, Elaine, being away right now has been good for me during this time of the death of my friend, David. Thank you, for being so supportive I appreciate you so much. Love, Debbie Reply
Aging is definitely taking it’s toll on so many of us. But you have every right to be depressed. Your eye and your teeth are huge problems to deal with. And yes, Facebook is definitely upsetting and like you I am not seeing everyone I would like to see and seeing too many advertisements and don’t get me started on how Facebook treats the political view it doesn’t like. I stay on to see what is happening in the lives of my friends and relatives. I do urge you to see your doctor about your depression as talking with someone helps and medication definitely helps. If not for medication I wouldn’t be able to handle all of the losses of friends I have had in the past 3 years. I knew I would lose people as I aged but somehow I thought it was years away and now I see it happening several times a month. I am struggling with the death of my very best friend last month and life ahead without her by my side. I hope you will continue to be on Facebook as I love the uplifting posts you share each day.

Sandra, when I allow myself to think about FB, and what they are doing to us by silencing our post, VOICES it makes me so sick to my stomach. How we ever got here and have allowed the media and social media to dictate to us is beyond me.. I wish you a blessed week.. Reply
Oh, Debbie, I i do understand. I’ve been going through some similar things. I am so blessed in so many ways, but I feel myself lacking the effort to do what I’ve always done. This need for quietness and self reflection? I feel, at least in my case, its a time when God is going in deep and doing some refining. He lives you and His desire us to prosper and bless you in every way. Jyst trust Him and relax into Him in the process. Reply
Melly, I love what you just said and I so agree, He is going in deep on me right now. I nad caly He is the Potter and wow, things are being shaken up and I know it is Him working in me. Have a blessed week, and I’ll be praying for you. As Women and Children of God we need to encourage and pray for one another not tear each other down. I have seen way too much tearing down of women by women to last me the rest of my life, build each other up, love your sisters. God Bless you, have a wonderful week. Reply
Debbie all of us need our times to recuperate from daily stresses and when health issues occur – even moreso! Step back when needed, deep breathe and take loving care of you! I read but haven’t commented for quite awhile but felt like I needed to say this. Love and hugs and prayers you will be ok. Reply
I just happened to check my emails just now and saw yours right off! I pray your problems with your eye and dental work will be resolved soon! I can’t imagine not being able to eat whatever I want to eat! This might get a little long so please forgive me if it does. I have a dear friend that is like a mom to me that had to go nursing home in physical therapy because she has two small fractures right above her tail bone and was a little malnourished from not eating enough protein. She was isolated for her first week there and now can have visitors. So I went to visit with her today and she is in really good spirits!🙌 While there one of the patients kept crying out for help because she is in a lot of pain.😢 And two of her friends have fallen and fractured a hip or shattered a knee from falling! Now she is eighty seven and in pretty good health before this happened to her. While there I shared with her about reading Hebrews 3 and how many times I’ve read this and today the last few sentences really jumped out at me! I pray for those dear people there and the care givers! And their families!! Also, I pray I never have to experience anything like those folks are going through. So thankful I have my health! Only issues are at times the eczema, but it is very mild now! Stay well and try not to give FB a thought and get some rest! I believe in you sending out emails to your followers is awesome! Fb can’t enter fear with that! Love you sweet friend!🙏🙏❤️🌷 Reply
Love you, Susan. Your sweet friend that is like a mama to you will be in my prayers. I know I am just 65 and I pray for a long long life. That is why I do all I can for my health. I am so blessed and maybe I need to sit quietly more often and just talk more and more to the Lord. Have a wonderful evening and a wonderful Sunday, my sweet friend. Reply
Thank you sweet friend and have a peaceful, relaxing Sunday! I agree with Jayce about stepping back and take deep breaths and relax!🙏😊💓 Reply
