Kate Update: Please Forgive Me

Topics: My Life

I know I should have some­thing to say.

I know that you all under­stand me more than most.

I know I owe some­thing to all the won­der­ful peo­ple who have had me in their prayers over the past three months.  I really do.  In fact, I think I will spend the entire month of Feb­ru­ary mak­ing up for ignor­ing them.

But for now all I can say is thank you.  I pray each night that you may be blessed for your self­less kind­ness and your count­less prayers.

Please for­give me for January.

For those who may not know, I am in Ari­zona get­ting help for an ongo­ing heart issue and a cyst in my brain.  It’s not as bad as it sounds, but I sure am exhausted… phys­i­cally and emo­tion­ally.  More details com­ing soon.

    Kate,
    For some rea­son my blog­lines hasn’t been noti­fy­ing me of your updates so I haven’t read your last 2 posts. I hope that you are doing bet­ter. You’re right that it does sound bad, it sounds hor­ri­ble actu­ally. I’ll tell Joe tonight and we will add you to our prayers. Take care.

    I some­how wan­der­ing thru the web found your mes­sages about your life with fibro. I have been going to the doc­tor for 2 years with unbear­able pain in my lower back. I was tak­ing so many pain pills they messed up my kid­neys. Just recently I went to the Mayo Clinic and dis­cov­ered i had fibro. It has totally changed my life. I sell real estate and I have nearly had to quit work­ing. I live with chronic pain nearly all the time. I get injec­tions and wear patches for pain all the time. I was won­der­ing how things are for you now and if you are bet­ter. Are there any doc­tors you are going to that have helped you and if so what are they telling you to do? I hope things are going bet­ter for you. God Bless, Sherry

    When I was a kid, our fam­ily had a house fire. I remem­ber my family’s friends all had a big party for us and brought us all kinds of presents — things like toi­let paper and flour and used fur­ni­ture. My mom had such a hard time with every­one going out of their way to do all of that for us.

    And I remem­ber the pas­tor of our church telling my mom some­thing that’s still impact­ing my life — some­times the best present you can give some­one else is to let them give to you.

    You don’t have to make up for any­thing, Kate, and you sure don’t need to be for­given for any­thing. This is *our* chance to give to you for all you’ve *already given* to us. It’s good to hear you’re get­ting the help you need. Even bet­ter to hear that you’re tak­ing the time to relax and get it. <3

    And I will still take what­ever bless­ings Abba decides to throw my way in answer to your prayers.

    I hope that you feel bet­ter. Try to take it easy. I hope to get to know you as well.
