Calm

"There may be similar adversities, events beyond our control, that could come to our life and we can have different reactions, such as disbelief, anger, fear or acceptance, calm with hope it will be all right."
~~~ Quote By Poet~~~
You have been around for two years How much longer would you be here? I remember we were frantic, we were shocked, in total panic when you invaded six households, for you were raging, uncontrolled that two died out of the twenty you infected, left us empty. That was January, last year; you terrified me, bringing fear with so much great intensity paralyzing my sensory on my visits to my mother, who was dying in my brother’s house, where seven you infected. I was so scared, I was a wrecked. Seven weeks ago, you came back hitting my household, you attacked my son and I; but I was calm. You were vicious, I had no qualms to get rid of you, fighting you. Yes, I was face to face with you for weeks through my afflicted son. Kept calm till you left my loved one.

Thank you so much Constance for your placement and compliment. I am so glad that the Lord saved Jon and HE is continuing to heal him. The last two weeks have been promising and I hope he would be in his pre Covid health soon. Thank you and have a great evening. Blessings to you.

Yes, it was a struggle; but I had to for my son to believe that he will be all right and that sometimes, it would take longer. I am so overjoyed that he is getting better now. Thanks so much, Darlene. Have a great day. Hugs, Marilene
