A Big Thank You

I just don't have the emotional energy to send individual messages to all of you who are supporting and encouraging me.  So if you don't mind, I'll just thank you all in a journal.
THANK YOU!!!!!
Your thoughts and prayers are strengthening me!  .... psychologically and physically.  I will be okay, no matter what.
I had things to do in town this afternoon, so I didn't walk today.  But, I walked about a mile and a half yesterday.  I live on a big hill, so walking away is all downhill, and walking back home is all uphill.  On my return home, I could feel a strength and a power in my legs that I haven't felt for a long, long time.  I walked fast!  WOOOO HOOOO!
I've had cfs for 5 years.  I've read that some people have recovered from cfs within a 4 to 5 year period.  Could the hormones from the stress that I'm under right now, along with your prayers be giving my body and my brain what I need to beat this disease???
Stranger things have happened.
Tim's mother passed away Monday morning.  He emailed me Tuesday to tell me that, and that he is back in eastern Kentucky.  He sent another email today and asked me how my mom is doing.  I haven't responded to either of his emails.  I think I'll just let him stew.  After all, he has far more important things to do than waste his valuable time on my emails.  My anger has converted to detachment.

I\'m really glad to hear that you had strength today. What a wonderful feeling! I did have a healing of CFS and I was asymptomatic for 6 years. I relapsed due to a flu shot. But, my point being that I did feel MUCH better for quite some time. I do hope that will happen for you. The Lord is powerful and He is willing. Let\'s wait in hope for great things.

I\'m very sorry to hear that things with Tim are so strained. It is hard for me to imagine telling my spouse that my mother died through an email. It\'s obvious that things are not going well. I pray you will find the path the Lord has for you in this situation.

Much love and many blessings.

Nancy, I just had a three month remission of my CFS, and I know the Lord gave me that to take care of my husband and my home and all that needed to be done! I had no one to help me, so God gave me my strength back. As of yesterday, i went into a full blown crash and today I can\'t even walk! Just goes to show ya, He will provide. He will give us strength when we need it. We just have to trust him.

You have been through and are going through a hard time with Tim. Not an easy person to deal with. However, I\'m glad your anger is being deferred. You will do better for yourself!!! Let the Lord lead you. Just carry on and do what you need to do for YOU. It\'s gonna be ok!

Sorry that Tim\'s mother passed! Sorry that he chose to relay that information to his wife in an e-mail. Sheesh!

We\'re here for ya! Yer welcome!! xoxo

Nancy, I\'m glad to hear you are having a burst of energy no matter what the cause. If it\'s for the long run, thank God, and if it\'s for a season, He will be with you then, too. I\'m sorry to hear about Tim\'s mom - but I can\'t wrap my mind around the way he let you know in an email and the way he is treating you. It is really unbelievable! Praying for you!

Well he probably sent you the sad news via an email because he knows you\'re not happy with him and also because you hung up on him when he phoned before.Now I do understand he has been treating you badly for quite a while now and you are hurting.So yes I am on your side there , however I would advise you to overlook his actions temporarily because he has lost his mother and he does need your support right now.Losing our mother is very painful.The cicumstances make it the wrong time right now to sort out the marriage problems.He needs your compassion right now, despite his mistakes.I don\'t want you to have regrets later on when and if your relationship does change and Tim changes.If your mother had just died, would Tim be there for you.? You are a good person and a devoted Christian so perhaps you can support him with his pain and loss because he needs it.Then when he gets through this difficult time, you can then focus on sorting things out and lay it on him my friend.Please understand I think so much of you and care about you, but put it on the back burner just for a while and support him.Our mothers only die once and it is painful.You are a strong woman, you can do this.Love to you Nancy xo
