The Small Things in Life
Healing
As the months passed I began to feel isolated
It was two years ago when I woke covered in red raw welts, they covered my body, itching and aching like I can’t explain. I took everything I could find in the fridge that could relieve me and after two hours I looked normal again.
Over the course of the next few months my condition got increasingly worse until I woke almost every morning covered in these hideous welts. Doctor after doctor we went, hospital to hospital mum and I searched for a cure to my unexplainable conditions. When conventional medicine couldn’t explain my condition we went to a whole bunch of crazy people who either read my eyes or gave me healing water. As the months passed I began to feel isolated as my condition continued to cause me the same isolating pain that no one around me could understand.
Through the day I put on brave face and faced the world while at night I cried silently to sleep. I lasted a year till I had my first massive breakdown. It was on my birthday and I will never forget the utter hopelessness I felt as my world seemed to fall away around me, the wall I had built to hold me up fell down.
At this time my faith was shattered and scattered around me, my life pulling my faith down. I searched for God, for hope, for Jesus. But still I woke to the same unbearable pain and suffering.
It took us one and a half years to find a professor at a hospital who thought she could answer my prayers. I had been on an elimination diet for 8 months and weighed about 40Kg, along with being extremely undernurished. She told me to eat normal again and began to diagnose my case. She met with old and new colleagues, friends, doctors and discussed my case till she had covered every possibility.
She put me on a heavy immuno suppressant a week later and my life once again became my own.
This one professor saved me and through her I see God, her work is God’s and through her I have struggled back to the life I once had. Although the side effects of the drugs I take can at times be horrible they are to me a constant reminder how my life has changed.

they say that we always see God but we just cant recognize Him..Im really touch about your story especially when you said that “through her you see God…” I cant really explain what I wanna say but I understand that God uses people to help us…I wish you good health take care alaways..Godbless!
