Positive Vibe/ prayer request thread

[naturalooks15]

Hi All,

Don't want this to be whining or venting thread but this is pretty much the only community I am active in and really really like it so thought of posting here. 

This is for everyone to post if you like/need.

Some of you may know that I have been though toughest time of my life for last one year and every aspect of my life is hit. Looks like the ordeal is not over and now it's onto my career and in turn mental wellbeing . Without going into too much detail, my health was compromised to the point that it was life threatening, my personal life crisis beyond belief that I never thought would happen to me and crushed me. Now my career is taking a hit for various reasons plus my health/ some physical limitation causing me further stress, anxiety, having hard time concentrating.

I am doing everything I can. Fighting this very hard, trying to stay positive. I have started working out regularly because I think that will help physical as well as mental wellbeing and doing everything I can but I feel I am at a point where it's getting tiring I can use some positive thought and your prayers. 

Also, if you are someone like me where sometime I am at a loss of words and not sure what to communicate to the person but I still pray for them, that is ok too, no need to feel pressured to post anything.

Feel free to post your own requests in this thread. Again, not a pity party and definitely do everything in your control to power though but sometimes positive vibes and prayers are just the things we all could use.

Just popping in here to just say how grateful I am for you all/ this community. Few updates -

I think reason I has started my thread was that I was going through the toughest time of my life.

Also later on my Physical Therapist getting diagnosed with stage 4 cancer that had me bawling. Just wanted to let you all know she is doing so much better now and no tumor anymore.  She is has low energy but that should be getting better soon. Thanks SO MUCH for all your prayers. Gratitude from the bottom of my heart. 

I have been doing well on and off but I really focused on health and workout. Been consistent 2x week of HIIT. during summer I was also doing walk/jog 3 times a week but now that it's cold, dreary and dark, no walks are happening. I need to figure something else out.

@naturalooks15 - That's wonderful news about your physical therapist!  Have you looked at walking DVDs?  I use one by Jennifer Smith.  💖💖💖

[naturalooks15]

I haven't. Thanks. I'll check it out.

Hey everyone, I could use some positivity sent towards my sister. She had some kidney issues emerge when are became pregnant with her son 6 years ago. Recently, she has been losing weight, tired a lot and not hungry. She went to her physician and they said her kidneys were an issue and sent her to a nephrologist. She saw that doctor today and is being admitted to the hospital to start dialysis immediately. She will be in for probably 3 days so they can do multiple treatments. My mom is retired and is going to help my sister and her husband out with their son. My mom and sister are going to pick my nephew up from school and explain what is happening to him. No visiting is allowed at the hospital due to recent covid spikes in the state. Apparently you don't go back once you start dialysis. She has a good friend who is finding out if she can donate a kidney to her.

I know my sister will start feeling a lot better once she gets through a treatment. My entire family is upset and worried. We just want her to be okay.

Thanks everyone.

@sprocketta oh honey 🙏 I'm so sorry this is happening

[sprocketta]

@lmaster Thank you. She came home from the hospital today but is very weak and tired. She is practically a skeleton now, 116 pounds and she is 5'7" or 5'8". But things are going to improve from here. I did get her to laugh last night and she does feel a bit better.

On another note, if you know anything about dry shampoo she needs recommendations and i have a post about it in the hair group. Please respond if you do!

@sprocketta I honestly very rarely use dry shampoo 

[sprocketta]

@lmaster the lovely @Kim888 have me a recommendation and it was purchased today. I am debating getting some for myself too.

[curlychiquita]

Sorry to hear that, @sprocketta ☹️ I hope everything goes well for your sister.

[sprocketta]

Thanks @curlychiquita I just want her to feel better. She is 5'7 or 5'8 and down to 122 pounds. She's in very rough shape.

[faeriegirl]
