April 13-May 24, 2017
Well I thought I wouldn't
need to blog but so much has happened, I guess i don't want to leave you in the
dark.
I feel great now but it took
until the Tuesday after Easter to get there.
Still don't know what that was about, Oh well. Easter I had no voice, it was fully back by
Tuesday. It was so good to see my Church
Family again.
Friday, for lunch, I met my
daughter and Granddaughter at the restaurant where my Granddaughter is the
manager. She was busy Managing, but it
was good to see her.
I was glad that I was able to
help with the flower decor at the Church on Saturday, for Easter as a part of
my Ministry. It was good to be back in
the saddle again. That night we had a
leadership Shaklee meeting at the Golden Corral Restaurant and it was good to
see my Shaklee Family again.
After Church on Sunday, and
after dinner at Red Lobster with my friend Sarah and her Husband and my adopted
Grandson, he and I spent the day together catching up. It was good.
Monday, I took my car that
was acting up, to Willie, my car repair go-to-guy. He discovered that the place my Grandson took
the car to get the oil changed while I was away, had broken 3 of the spark
plugs in half and replaced them so the engine would run rough, they estimated
the repairs to fix it at $600. He called me to ask about it and I said I would
take it to Willie. Willie did the
tune-up for $95, but after that, it was still running rough and he discovered a
piston didn't have compression and it would require removing the "head"
and it would be a major deal. He didn't
do that, but referred me to another place that said they would do it for
$950.00 more or less, depending on what they found. My daughter has a guy that does all her
repair work, and she will get a second opinion for me. Meanwhile, my friend, ET, (that I am staying
with) loaned me her extra car so my grandson could still drive mine here
locally. Once my car is fixed, and I get
an OK from Willie to drive across country, I will probably drive back to Oregon and then I would have a tow car, already prepared for
towing. It is a good car if it is fixed.
Yes, I said I would drive the
car across country! I already knew I
would not be going back when I thought I would, and to change the plane ticket
would cost another $199.00 plus the ticket price, so I will just
"miss" the plane for May 2.
When you run with the Lord, you have to be flexible and adaptable and
ready for change.
I found out that my daughter's
guy will fix the car for $450, Praise the Lord!
Then as my grandson was driving home, the car stopped and after AAA towed it back to the guy, he said the coil was
bad and for $127 more he would fix that.
I trust God to get my car fix appropriately for my travels, or I won't
go that way.
Meanwhile, I downloaded a
movie called, "Eating you Alive."
I think I talked about this before.
A very impacting movie about how to avoid disease and reverse it by what
we eat. Just "google"
Eating you Alive movie and you can download it for $9.99 and have it to
look at or show. It is a documentary
movie, very good. I have been inviting
people over for a fellowship to see it, and they have received it well. My mission in life is to reach 100,000,000
people in my lifetime with a way to freedom from this world's system and this
world's medical system is not working!
So, if all of you that read this, evaluate what you are eating and consider
that God made our bodies with trillions of cells that only eat food (vitamins,
minerals, protein, carbohydrates, & fats).
They have been ordered by God to do what they are supposed to do, (Heal
us and keep us well, with the good food that we feed them). They react to everything that is not a food,
(medications, artificial additives, preservatives, synthetics, sugar, etc...)
which is why medicines work (if they do), because they cause a reaction. Every medication has a side effect.
OK, I am going to summarize
the happenings, because I didn't blog at the time, and as expected, so much
happened that I don't remember all of it.
April 22, 2017
I attended a "Sister to
Sister" banquet luncheon that I had purchased tickets for, and sat at the
table with the friend (ET) that I am staying with, and 8 others I knew. Only one Lady at the table that I didn't know,
and we fixed that. It was good food,
good Christian fellowship and a great up-lifting program. We all received a "goodiebag" with
a rhinestone tiara, representing a Child of the King, lovely!
After returning home, I
called Ronnie's son to see why I wasn't able to reach Ronnie (my best friend
for 50 years) since I came back. I was
surprised to learn that she had started radiation and chemotherapy for the
second time, three days before, for four weeks.
She has an inoperable brain tumor and after 3 years, it had flared up
again. Now I know why I am here and why I am not returning on May 2nd as
planned. I had stayed with her for 6
weeks when she went through the first round and it looks like I will be able to
help again. Her 80th birthday is in the
middle of June and I will wait until after that, to return to Oregon.
April 23-May 24, 2017
I had various Doctor's visits
for checkups, (because my Health insurance is only good in Maryland) following are the results:
Primary care Doctor
reported:
"Ms. Swann, a 74 year 7 month 1week old female is here
for her regular follow-up visit. Patient
is here for evaluation of hypertension. No medications, just a stress-free,
pain-free, debt free lifestyle and a 10 pound weight loss has her blood
pressure close to normal."
Skin Cancer Screening: No cancer or
concerns. (I asked the Doctor if he took Vitamins, he said oh, my wife gives me
some stuff
Mamogram: Nothing significant
Colonoscopy: 2 polyps
removed, will get results tomorrow.
I feel great! Still losing weight (haven't weighed but wear
a size smaller.)
I had various Shaklee
gatherings and showed the documentary movie, "Eating you alive", several
times with great results.
I have my car out of the shop
and it only needs an exhaust something, I will check with Willy to see what
that is all about, it doesn't sound major.
I know I did a short cut on
the happenings, but you are probably a little happy about that. (smile)
God is still in control in my life and I am
still having fun. It is a joy to know
that all things are working for my good and I have peace knowing that. It is a "trust God thing". I am so blessed! And I want so much to be a blessing to
others, it is only right to pass it on.
