WIDOWS AND WIDOWERS OF FAITH Community Group
A place where people of faith may freely discuss issues of grief from a faith based perspective.
Does anyone on here ever worry about health issues? I know someone posted a few days ago about this. Lately it's been one thing after another with me. Panic attacks, my toenail, a virus, then bad eye allergies. Plus this nagging pain in my left rib cage. I don't know how, but I am beginning to wonder if I fractured a rib or spleen. My mind works overtime and says, "Maybe you have cancer." I have made so many trips to the ER and the doctor's office that it will cost me. The doctor will definitely send a bill. I am trying to cast down these imaginations, but again, I don't trust doctors.
My friend is still alive today. I want to shake her till her teeth rattle and tell her how precious life is! She has a good husband, a home, a good church - and she's still fairly young and pretty. I would gladly trade what she has for what I lost! She wants to check out; I am fighting tooth and nail to survive.
One lesson I have learned is to not sweat the small stuff in a marriage. Some things just do not matter. If there is a next time, I hope to remember this. Of course we are still human and proned to error, but I would strive to do better. I am looking for a rainbow after the rain.
