Hi, two years ago my husband passed away after several years of very bad health. Heart, kidneys and infections that resulted in amputation. During those years I lived in a state of constant what he called "squirrel" behavior in that I couldn't concentrate on anything else but him. I understand about starting things and then loosing interest. First of all Give yourself a break! He is first. Your family is first not only in your heart and mind but with your energy. I think you are amazing! Thank you for all you teach me. Remember you are amazing. Courage does not always roar, sometimes it is a quiet voice saying "I will try tomorrow"
Listening to worship music helps me. My daughter had an 11 pound germ cell tumor, her blood pressure was 210/168 and her pulse was 136. She was in renal failure, anemic and a lot of other problems. She had to be transferred to another hospital for emergency surgery. She was 26 and I was homeschooling my 9 year old son. My older son lived down the road with his girlfriend and her little girl. The doctor said had we not gotten her to the ER when we did she wouldn’t be here today. They removed her tumor, left ovary, appendix and lymph nodes. When she came home from the hospital I had to take my mom to the ER. She was 86, lived with us so I could help take care of her. We found out she had a mini stroke and she had some breast lumps. A few days later I had to take my husband to the ER. He was diagnosed with diabetes and asthmatic bronchitis. Then we had to drive to Charleston to declare bankruptcy. Mark does construction and that’s when the economy crashed. He just had odd jobs but, not enough to pay our bills. Then Marks engine blew in the truck. He had to purchase a clunker so he could still work. We found out Heather had to have 3 rounds of chemo and my mom had to have radiation. One was in Savannah, GA and the other one had to go to Hilton Head. Facebook was wonderful!! I had someone taking my mom or Heather while I took the other one. Someone picked up Brandon for co-op and watched him until I got home. People gave us gas cards, made meals, cleaned my house and gave us money. It was ALL God!!!! Heather almost died 3 times from her chemo and the tumor but, the Lord was good. They both were cancer free in August of 2012. My mom passed away in 2014 but, she had a good life. Heather still has a ton of after effects from the chemo and she’s had about 23 surgeries since 2012. She can’t work but, always has a smile on her face. The bankruptcy is complete and Mark is doing well. He’s got more construction jobs than he can handle. I thank the good Lord for getting us through that difficult time. I’ll be praying for you and your family.
I think these ephemera journals are genius. Oh so handy. I love your chats! I chat back with you! That probably makes me weird, but whatever. We totally understand that you need to take care of your family, just don't forget to take care of yourself. I know from experience how taxing constant nursing is. I'm glad your husband got a good report. I know that at this point that's only partly reassuring, as you live with the worry that something will happen again. As to what to do when your designing mojo is absent from the scene, do just what you're doing. Just mindlessly making components. Then you'll have them ready to go when you do feel like getting back to it. Put on a movie, or an audiobook, or some music, and just let your mind rest! It's amazing what you can get done while not even thinking about it. I'm sending best wishes to you and yours, and you take care. Thanks for sharing, even when it's a struggle.
Bless you heart !! When my Husband was battling cancer and we knew it was terminal I stopped doing any sort of crafting. I couldn't concentrate on anything other than him and our kids. After he passed it took 2 years for me, thanks to our kids , 20s at the time, telling me I needed to get back to doing what my Husband loved to see what I'd created and fed my soul. Boy that was long winded, but all that to say you are not alone in not being able to concentrate and finish anything. When your heart is all over the map with feelings, please give yourself grace and do what makes you happiest!! Much love to you and your family. Prayers lifted for you all !!
Family first. Talking helps and many are here to listen. Prayers.
Treasure every moment. My husband was diagnosed with a rare degenerative neurological disease for which there was no treatment or cure. I cared for him for almost nine years with the help of my daughter. Even knowing that it was a terminal illness I was unprepared when he simply fell over into my lap and was gone. People reminded me to care for myself during that time but I, like you, was so focused on him and his needs that I forgot about myself. Please take time for yourself. It has been a year since he passed and some days grief still hits. Every day he said, "The best is yet ahead and I can't wait to be there" so we didn't wish him back for his sake but some days are hard. Scrapbooking and crafts, which comes and goes for me, does help--just to accomplish something is wonderful. I enjoyed your video and your chat as today has been one of those hard days.
Oh, no, I hadn't heard about Brandon - my prayers are with him and Melina and their family. And I continue to pray for your and Whitt's continued improving health. Thanks for showing us how to cover this folder! I so enjoy your videos, E, and look forward to them. In the past I haven''t commented a lot on peoples' videos. I told myself I didn't have time, as I rushed from one video to the next. But the truth is, I just didn't take the time or I just didn't feel like expressing my feelings. So now I know how much it means to everyone, I'm taking the time. It may not always be a long comment (like this one!). I've always "written a book" my sister says, and I need to remember, a few words go a long way! Have a good week! Love, Donna
So glad your husband is doing better. Listening to your husband's story is so reminiscent of my husband's story. One step at a time is how you do it and what you are going through can be so overwhelming. I find if I do little easy mass making sorts of things that I get something accomplished and begin to feel productive and then my mojo gradually returns. My husband had a virus attack his heart and was on the heart transplant list for fifteen years. While he was initially being evaluated for a transplant over Labor Day weekend (the same night that Princess Diana died), he suffered a massive stroke. While he mostly fully recovered from the stroke, I believe that is why he never did get a transplant. I was lucky enough to have him for fifteen years after his stroke and he has been gone over six years now. Continued prayers for you and your family. TFS the inspiration!
Even though you’re still filled with concern for Whitt and having troubles concentrating on 1 project at a time, it’s great to hear you giggle again. Hang in there, take it one day at a time. You’re doing great! ❤️❤️. When I get into a funk and have troubles with the type of crafting I’ve been working on for awhile, I sometimes turn to my old crafting projects. I have been crocheting since I taught myself in 1979. A couple of years ago I began learning how to do loom knitting. I also like to paint things too. I also love reading. If I get myself into a book, sometimes I’ll have my nose stuck into it for many hours. When the pocket book Roots came out, I started reading right after supper and finished the book at 5:00 a.m. the next morning! 😊
Just be kind to yourself, you have been through a scary time! You have had a shock! It will come back, just step back and take time, you will feel better! God Bless xx 🌻
Praying for strength for you and complete healing for your husband. And praying for son in law. I went through this with my husband 2 years ago. We serve a great God! My husband is doing great! He started his own business a year ago. One day at work he had a stroke out of no where! We give all glory to God! Blessings dear sister!
Bless your heart, and bless your family. Thank the Lord for the many gifts you give us all in your work crafting. Prayers of comfort and strength.
So glad to hear how things are going. It's hard to get back to normal after a serious incident. It's like you have been in the fight and flight mode and it is very hard to let go, and relax and get back to feeling like doing anything else. Doing these little videos and talking to all your friends who have been praying so hard for Whitt's recovery is a great thing to do right now. (Talking to friends that never interrupt you, lol.😉) You will gradually be back to normal soon.
I have been trying some of the file folder things like the folded over ones with all the ephemera in them. Also several other things. Take care and know that I will keep praying for you all. I love listening to you talking and can hear in your voice as you relax and go with the flow.
There is so much power in prayer, and I am adding more for your comfort and strength. God Bless you both.
So glad your hubby is doing better. It is so scary when there is nothing we can do to help. My Hubby got sick 8 years ago and a year later his kidneys quit working and he went on dialysis. We had to move to be close to our Son and Hubby goes to dialysis 3 days a week. It has been hard to get my creative juices going and I finally just decided I needed to try and get back to it. Crafting has always been my Happy Place, but I understand your feelings of needing to be there when a family member is sick. I hope you can get back to your Happy Place with crafting. Maybe just cut back for awhile? You and your family will be in my prayers. Stay safe and take care of yourself sweet crafty friend. Big HUGS and keep smilin!
The love of your life is always the center of your world. Spend as much time wirh your loved ones as you can. I lost my Husband when I was only 40 and I'm now 67. I still miss him and our life together. I'll pray for your family.
Take as much time as you need, family will always come 1st, may God keep your family safe and continue to heal your husband, x
I enjoy the updates and chatting watching and following you have become a part of my family sending prayers and well wishes
So glad your husband is improving. You do what you need to do with your family. So sorry to hear about your son-in-law being sick also. Praying Gods healing hand upon your family. 🙏❤️😊
So glad to hear your hubby is doing better. May GOD continue to bless you and your family. Love & Prayers.
Glad coming on here with us gave you some relief! It is ok to take the time you need to get back in the swing of things. Know that you and your family are in my continued prayers. God bless you!!!
What makes me be happy, is saying my prays, but watching you talk thur your problems and worries. This makes me feel better. God has our backs girl.
Your being authentic and sharing your life's experiences is never boring! Thank you for letting us know about what's happening in your life.
Don't beat yourself up! Life is hard sometimes and it gets in the way! Praying for both you and your husband 🙏
I’m so happy your hubby is doing better. I think talking and sharing with with us will help you. God bless and thanks for sharing with us.
So glad you are back!! Glad your husband is doing better, too. Take your time and do some more "mindless" crafts until you feel like hitting the ground running. I just enjoy listening to you and you ideas. continued prayers for you and all of your family.
No problem on the dinging - we're probably all used to hearing co-workers phones ding or ring at work. Continuing to pray for Mr. Whit & will add Melina's DH to my list. I am so glad talking with us helped, when you need to do something that doesn't require much thinking and just visit - I'm all for it. I've enjoyed watching and listening as you worked. Thank you, Mrs. E!
Wishing for healing and wellness in your family. Thank you for always sharing ideas; so inspiring and useful!
Glad health-wise things are getting better for your husband and better for your family I love your crafts and I watch you all the time
Boring or not boring...no matter...I'm just so happy to hear things are going a lot better. I'm very sorry to hear your son in law is not well. My youngest daughter's husband is very sick, as well, so I do understand that. I will continue praying for your family. I think any of us understand your not answering their posts. Not to worry. God bless!
I am so happy that Mr. E is doing well!! And I will continue to keep you and your family in prayer. You will get your crafting mojo back. Right now you probably need time for you and your family, now that all is well with Mr. E! I Watch you tube, do some crafting, writing and just talking to my friends. I really enjoy your craft videos and glad you took a try and came back. Thank you!!! Much Love!!
Mrs. E we all love you and your family very much! Please take care of yourself and family. We all will be here for you if you want to craft or just talk. What ever you need. You do not ever have to apologize. We are all family and we will always be here for you. Please take care of yourself and remember we love you!!! Lots of love and big Hugs!!!!! God Bless!!!
Thank you for letting us know you guys are doing well.
Talking with us will help...it gets you crafty "thinking" and crafty "verbalizing" I enjoy your crafts and your voice...soothing 😊
I am a retiring cardiac nurse and your husband is a walking miracle. He is blessed to have come through the aortic dissection and heart surgery. The a fib, hopefully can be managed with medication. This to shall pass. God bless you on this journey and give you peace.
About motivation, sometimes nothing motivates me! But if I am motivatable, I do some kind of craft. I quilt, journal, make ephemera, and this past week started slow stitching, so I’m on that kick right now. I, too, love watching a LOT of CZcams sisters craft. Ya know, Psalm 46 says God is our refuge and strength. About a year ago while reading my Bible during one of those “funk” times, I was led also to verse 10 where He says, “Be still and know that I am God.” That’s a hard one for someone who is a “fixer” and I have a feeling that, like me, you’re a fixer. So I have to just get under the shadow of His wings, be still and let Him be my refuge and strength, trusting He is THE Fixer and will make all things work out for my good and His glory. In fact, I pretty much daily have to remind myself that He is Lord and since He did create the whole universe from nothing, He can handle all of my anxieties and funks. I’m sure you know every bit of this more than I do. I guess maybe even at nearly 73 I needed to remind myself tonight by reminding you - if that makes sense. 😉 I know you’re taking care of Whitt. Remember, since he depends on you, you have to take care of yourself, too. Thank you so much for sharing a part of your life. Sharing hard times as well as the good times is what makes good friends. Praying for your family and sending big hugs to you all. 🥰
So glad things are getting better! Prayers for your husband and you and your family. These times can be tough on our minds and our family.. TFS..
Glad your husband is better. Prayers for your son-in-law.
My prayers and heart goes out to you all, keep on keeping on. Just do what ever you need, we are with you. Just take care of your family. We love you all. Judy
Ms E, it’s OK to relax a bit!! Take as much time as you need to think your projects through. Please don’t rush on our account. At least for me, it gives me time to think my projects through. I want to do them all at once and oh my!! Like you said, maybe talking with us may be the thing you need to do and show us your talent in little bits!! On the plus side your thumb is doing better and that’s great!! Absolutely, family is always first!! Be reassured that we understand and that prayers are definitely going your way for you and your family from your CZcams family!! Take care of yourself and hubby and things will fall into place!! 😊🥰❤️🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
While it may seem strange to some, those of us who are pretty much shut in do rely a lot on youtube and we do feel like we get to know the hosts as friends because you add so much to our lives and we're with you more than our own families right now. I, for one, and I know I'm not alone, do worry when one of my youtube friends is having problems, even though we don't really know each other from Adam. And I think that is such a wonderful thing in these times of strife that so many of us can feel compassion for those we don't really know but perceive as friends. I love that, despite what the network news would have us believe, there truly is a lot of empathy for our fellow humans. Not everyone is at each other's throats. And I feel that the crafting community is especially warm and caring and supporting of one another. If the world were filled with crafters what a wonderful world it would be! Also, at this point, I do still tune in for tips and tutelage, but just as much for the camaraderie and time spent "together", no matter what the craft. So, you just do what makes you calm and happy and we'll be there, answering you out loud when you ask "should I do this or this?". You said at the beginning that you feel like you've done a whole lot of nothing, but to me you've made a bunch of great components, ready to go when the will returns. This is what we jewelry makers do, too, when we're stalled. Just sit and rather mindlessly and relaxedly make components while we watch videos or listen to an audiobook or whatever. Before you know it you've got a slew of components to put together an entire project or more. Presto change-o! Thanks so much for sharing your time. So glad Whitt is doing better. Continued prayers sent your way.
I LOVE 💘 hearing you talk! I missed hearing your voice Edith! Don't feel pressured by us. We all need a break once in awhile. So glad your hubby's doing much better. God bless you all.
I think everyone goes through this, dont get down on yourself. You will be back in the swing in no time!
You and your family are in my prayers! You will get back in the swing of things! It will take time. ❤️
Bless you, thinking of you and your family and most of all wishing your Husband a speedy recovery xx
Great to hear your sweet voice again! It is totally understandable to have the blahs in your situation. Praise God saving your hubby 15 years ago and now! He must have special plans for your family & your testimony. Give yourself grace and do what you can when you can. I'll be watching your old videos in ther meantime, lol! Thanks for sharing your heart & your crafting with us! Hugs & prayers to you and your family.
Our families are important. I agree with you, family comes first. I understand how it is. I drop everything when my family needs me. But you do need to take care of yourself. Doing something relaxing will help. I enjoy your channel so much. Hope both your husband and son in law are soon well. Prayers do help.💕
I have depression, but what motivates me is watching CZcams gives me inspiration, but I still haven’t done a lot of crafts. My main issue is sleep I grieve a lot in the evening so it disrupts my sleep. But what I know I have to do is change my depression medication because it causing grogginess and I’m pretty sure my crafting will come back. I’ve tried so many and they all cause me grogginess, so I have to talk to my doctor. Life can sure through a lot of stress at a person. You will feel better my dear. See your doing something right now on your video, and this is such a great idea, thanks for sharing.
I agree with you family comes first. So glad your husband doing good. Sending prayers for you and your family.
Glad your Hubby is ok. I know what it’s like to worry and be a caregiver. I do home dialysis for my husband 5 days a week. My crafting with you and others helps me so much. Thanks so much. Prayers for continued Heath
Blessings to you and yours during your challenging times. Family first, yes, but be sure to take care of yourself as well. Your crafting will be a healing therapy for you, and you will not be alone. We're all here :->.
I'll keep your husband in my prayers. I hope that he is feeling better. While you busy taking care of his needs make sure that you get some help for yourself if your needing any. Just dont you over do things trying to take everything on by yourself. Stay strong. You can endure
Glad your husband is doing and feeling better! Crafting and sharing helps so much! Continued prayers and well wishes to you both
So sorry to hear that your husband had health problems, but am happy that he is doing better now. You'll get your mojo back. It just takes time after such things happen. you're creativity will return!!
I am watching this video months later and you asked what gets us out of our funk. I watch your videos. 🙂 you keep me motivated to craft. You talking to us not only helps you, but it helps us to know you better as a person. I enjoy your talent and your heart ❤. You and your family will always be in my prayers.
Do what you feel like doing. Little by little you get back to your normal. If you only want to talk we can listen. Still praying for you and your family. God bless and stay safe.
Eve, I’m so sorry that you have had so much anxiety, and sadness and worry. Thank you, for your update on your husband’s health. Glory Be to God he’s recouping. I’ve been very unwell for 8 months. Thank you, for sharing your thoughts I’m the same. What is your son in laws name. Since I am not feeling well, I follow 10 people I have file folders with your names. I write notes about your delightful creations. And if I find out about someone needing prayer I keep those in a separate prayer folder. Thank you for sharing. I’ll be praying for you as well. Virtual hugs 🤗 and Much love. Eve, God is on it. He loves you and your family. And I do too🦋
I have so much that has happened to my husband that allows me to truly understand what you're going thru. Just take a moment to say a pray, take a deep breathe and hug your husband! He is still with you and remember to show gratitude for each day you wake up together.
You have so much more strength than you think putting your family first especially in this crisis time is what a mama does, been affected by your family health concerns is STRONG. My thoughts are with you all and with every subscriber we send you extra strength and love to hopefully help carry you through xo
Prayers for your family!!!!! Enjoyed watching and listening!!!!!!
With everything that's going on in your life, I'm thankful that you decided to spend some time out of your day to share with us. I'm praying for you and your family. God bless and stay strong. 🙏❤️
Talking about things helps. And I love your videos. Continued prayers. I love CZcams
I’m with you, family comes first above all else. Take care and you and your family are in my prayers. Sending hugs 🤗
Whenever I feel down or life gets in the way - my teenage daughter self harms ☹️ - I organise my craft stuff - I don’t necessarily make anything but sorting and re-discovering my things is very therapeutic- it seems the same for you too - you seemed much more relaxed by the end of the video - sending hugs from Sunderland uk 🇬🇧
HI Julie, Dorothy here in Canada born in Sunderland St Lukes Rd. I do the same thing as you. My daughter passed away last year and now I have 2 Teenagers living with me. I don't find I want to actually craft, but I do get in my craft room and tidy up but never seem to have the MOJO to make anything. My teenage Granddaughter is now wanting piercings and tattoo's so I am also going through a rough time.
That is wonderful news...Keep staying strong and don't push yourself too hard..It will all come back to you in time. You are loved :) Blessings, friend!
I am sorry you are having a hard time. Prayers for you and your family. I do enjoy just listening to you, I feel like I know you personally. I have learned and have been inspired to do little projects. Thank you for mustarding up your inspiration to share your talent on you tube . I do understand Family come first, your family is blessed to have a wonderful lady like you in their life. Blessings
Give yourself permission to have non-productive days, I’ve learned to do that.
I can’t wait to see how you make the whole ephemera folder! Truly helpful‼️
I love this idea. I am going to start this project today. So glad you took time to let us know how you are. Prayer, family and friendship is what we definitely can count on, no matter what’s causing sorrow. God bless you and your family.
You do what you want to do in your own time. I know what you’re going through. I’ve just recently had a transplant so only just getting back to a fairly normal way of life. Family is extremely important. Love to you all & you take care always 💜💜
Prayer is so amazing. So glad Whit is better.
So glad tO hear your hubby is feeling better. Just give yourself time to recover. Sending prayers
Thanks for the inspiration my sweet friend. I'll continue to keep you and your family in my prayers. Hugs up sweetie❤❤❤🙏
Thanks for sharing the update with us. Glad that your husband is doing better. Just take it day by day and don't be hard on yourself. Know that we all understand and some if not all of us have been where you are now. Will keep Malina's hubby in prayer as well. Take care and stay blessed! 🙌🙏💕
I'm so glad to hear that Whitt is doing so much better. I think we all get in those slumps.. i feel sure you'll be back to your crafty self soon. I spent a few hours in the ER Tuesday with a pretty bad stomach virus. I'm on the mend but, at 71, it really took a lot out of me.
My heart and prayers go out to Whit and yourself as well as your family. I can understand how scattered one can get when their life partner is in crisis. I'm glad to have caught up with you and have extra prayer for you and yours added to my prayer list. I don't find this video boring at all. It's a wonderful learning curve and I thank you for sharing. Be Blessed
Really glad your husband is doing better! You'll get back into the swing of things. We creative souls can't keep it inside for long LOL
I am glad to hear Whitt is doing better. I have been praying for you. I have been very worried about you. Please take care of yourself. God Bless!
Thanks for the update been thinking about you and your husband continued prayers
Thanks for sharing and letting us know how better to pray for your family. May God bless you with a total peace about everything.
You are a sweet lady. I really enjoyed this tutorial because I have been meaning to make a few ephemera books. Prayers for you and your family,🙏💕
This was great! Just what I was looking for. So glad things are doing a little better for you and your family. Hoping your son-in-law has much better by now. As always I really enjoy our show and your talent is amazing!
Be gentle with yourself Edith.... glad Whit is doing better... enjoy listening to your voice, very soothing.... hoping talking to “us” helped...God bless you and your family❤️
Thank you for sharing. It is the first time I have seen a hand made ephemera storage. It was lovely. Thanks again. X
I'm glad to see this hope hubby gets well sending prayers to you both I have been through it my husband passed away 16 years ago miss him every day
Stay strong! There is strength in your family. Lean on them. When I am having a hard time I try to stay goal oriented. What is it I am trying to accomplish? Seeing my dad come out of the hospital? Getting through kidney stone troubles? Helping my sister with distance learning? If I keep my end goal in mind it’s easier for me to stay strong and focus. When I reach the goal then I can relax and process everything that happened.
Hello Edith! So glad that Mr. Wray is doing better... we will keep praying for a good recovery and blessings from God! We can help you getting in the crafty groove again! :)
So happy to see you and hear hubby is getting better. continued prayers and hugs
Glad y’all are some better... praying for him and all of y’all.... y’all have had a lot going on.....I love these!!!🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻
Your sharing your life as well as your craft is a precious gift. It is helping so many. My prayers are with you here in Kansas.
You will get back into the grove. Glad your husband is better and the numbers are up. Stay safe.
I’m so sorry that you are down, Sweet Love. Depression is so very hard to find joy in the normal things. We see you. We hear you. And we are here to uplift you during this time. 🦋
I just saw this video today. I'm so glad Whit and you made it through that struggle. God is very good! I just wish we could reach through here and give you a great big hug! If you didn't want to be with your family in hard times, you wouldn't be the Godly woman that you are and the woman everyone has come to love. No job is worth being away from family during those times, even when you love your job. God and family first. Prayers for continued healing.
Love to watch you do anything. Prayers to your family.
no problem with the phone.....Miss E you have to do with what is comfy for you and your family....it is good to see you crafting again even if it a little bit....thanks for update of your hubby and take of yourself too.
Ms. Edith you may not be doing anything specific, but I for one, is still learning something! I'm fairly new to your channel so I haven't seen all your videos yet. May God bless you and give you strength. My prayers are for you and your family.
I think an ephemera book is a great idea. Thank you and blessings to you. Crafting has been my saving grace from depression! 😊❤
That roll that your wonderful friend sent you is stay tape. It is used to stabilize neck lines and knits when sewing. I'm sorry that you are going through some changes. Trust me, your tea is mighty strong. I'm a great fan of yours, and I consider you part of my great sisterhood. Raising you up with prayer, because hot water eventually will cool down.
Really love your conversation,sharing, I know all the gals,guys who follow you have you in much Christian love and prayer......take care,thank you for showing me a new craft...Hugs and all good stuff....
WOW I adore your butterfly book that you are creating. I love all the assortment of butterflies you have such beautiful colors. If talking helps then you just go for it because I love to listen. Listening to you helps me so you see it’s a win, win situation. Let’s see when I get in my funk of course crafting and sewing takes my mind off of everything that is going on in my life. But it’s very hard for me to go in my craft room and get started. I really have to just push myself but once I do I’m happy I did. Then there is other times I just watch a good movie or I’ll start reading my bible which is extremely good therapy for me or I’ll just go outside and l’ll work in my yard if the weather permits. I just find what ever I choose to keep my mind off of things is great for me. The more time I have for me to worry the worse it is because I just send myself to a depressed state. And I have to work even harder to get myself out of my funk. Remember my dear friend the devil loves it when you worry so be brave and strong so you can prove him wrong and always know that God has your back because he loves you so much and you are his child. You got this girl friend. You are more stronger than you give yourself credit for. My prayers will continue to be with you and your loving family. Stay sweet and don’t never loose your charm. 😘💕 Ed
Thank you for sharing your story and letting us pray for you and your family. You might not feel strong right now, but you really are. You and your husband and family are being held close in our hearts.
P.S. - My husband loves Westerns, too. And I go watch CZcams videos. He likes fishing shows, too.
sending prayers glad your husband is feeling better,TFS
