February 2013 Give A Way |
Special thanks to all of you for sending your messages of concern regarding my long absence. Thank you to old and new followers for your support in reading my blog and leaving comments. I am grateful.
Blood Clots were on the loose in my leg a few days after this picture was taken in my Brother's driveway. Cute car. |
The pain in my calf was awesome! I self-diagnosed using GOOGLE. But, please don't try this at home. LOL. In the emergency room, I told the doctor, "I have a DVT (deep vein thrombosis)." He asked me, "How do you know you have a blood clot, young lady?" I proceeded to tell him "My Clot Story" from 10 years ago. I was immediately sent for CT scan and the little critters showed up.
"Will the clots cause me to kick the bucket?" I actually have a 10 year old "umbrella" in my vein to block the clots from the most important places they like to go like the heart, lungs and brain. Maybe it still works and maybe it doesn't. Google: "economy class syndrome" (ECS). The information may help you and others during your travels.
Sitting here writing my blog post and feeling great! Mostly because my grandsons spent the weekend with me and we had soooo much fun. And that I am making a connection with you. And that my husband gave me a new Mercedes-Benz to help ease my pain. Yes, it did help. And that God may be giving me another chance to enjoy my life here on earth helping others.
My favorite daughter knows how much I care about my Blog Friends, and she will post to let you know if I kick the bucket.

Hi Felma, I'm so sorry about your sister-in-law and cousin's husband. It has been a tough time, with the blood clots too! Congrats on your beautiful new car and on spending time with your grandsons.

I linked over from pinterest and just love your dresses! I will pray for you and your family as you make your way through this time of lost.
Dear Felma
A lady who can experience so much of the bad things in life, which we all hope not to....
To red your blog, comments, hear of your thoughts...I must say I admire a lady with so much light inside, with such a fine and beautiful soul and mind. Keep your spirit light shine on you and on your wonderful family. You will only know so little, but you have already had an impact on so many know and unknown people. We all learn to be a better person by ready about you and the way you embrace life.
I wish you the very best.
Please count me in for the February give-away, I would be honored to win and disply such a beauty and remember your words every time my eyes catch it.
My prayers are with you and your cousin! God is truly in control of all, and He is awesome! I'm glad you are feeling better! Prayer works!
It's good to know that your cousin will have eternity to spend with her beloved husband! Meantime, try to help her keep her eyes on Him, and pray for her daily. It is not easy to miss someone everyday. Christ said he will never leave us nor forsake us......when we are silent, and thinking of Him, we can hear the still small voice of God and know that He is right there with us!
I am not posting to enter the contest, just to wish you a long and happy celebration of life!
I have already commented awhile ago to be part of you giveaway but i was trying to send you a message to say I hope your feeling better but I couldnt find a way to do it privatly so letting you know you are in my prayers and I hope you are doing better :)
Thanks to all of you for leaving the wonderful encouraging comments above. I feel so Blessed to have Blogger Friends. Those of you praying for me are doing a fantastic job in sending your messages to God because I am doing so much better. The blood clots are going away and looks like I may not kick the bucket as a result of the clots.
Thanks for entering the draw and posting my give a way on your Blog. Tina, I am so sorry that you could not contact me through my Blog. For those of you having trouble contacting me through my Blog, please contact me at mini4you.fj@gmail.com until further notice.
