Absolutely. It's weird out there.

My best to you, Kathy. Thank you for your posts. ♥️

It's so much to process sometimes. And you can't talk about it with most people. So, it should be the people here, but we don't really know them either. Feel free to reach out any time! And thank you for the prayers. ♥️ My daughter had gotten better and then has since had more swelling in her neck/glands, so NOT the mumps?? It's been scary and stressful here but I finally took her to see my naturopathic Dr who put my mind at ease a bit and gave her some things which have helped so far.
I hope you have a good day, and again, I am here if you ever need to chat. 😊

I hear you. It's very lonely and exhausting much of the time and a lot to filter through your mind without talking it out with someone.

Love it. I used to think I was weird for being so drawn to numbers. My grandmother and I used to discuss our favorites that we'd see on the clock. We both loved 1234 and 444 the most. When my littlest was born on 4/4 I couldn't not give her my grandmother's name as her middle name. Sometimes I am still blown away by the incredible use of numbers here and otherwise.

Aww. Love Archangel Raphael! I used to pray to him when I was doing reiki. I once read that "his number" or the number associated with him was 1122 but I don't remember why.

maybe coincidences? Didnt hrc mention wanting a hammer in an email? And Santa with the hammer? now this?
People mentioned the blue painters tape....looked Epstein islandish to me...blue lights in the trees too.

same here! years ago when i first started reading about monsanto and all the food nonsense, my dog was already having seizures and was medicated for them, but the meds never stopped them completely. At one point when we needed to refill her prescription the vet refused unless we brought her in for an appointment. At the time, we couldn't afford another $200 vet bill but could afford the 12 or so dollars for the pills. I was so mad that the vet would refuse her meds so i finally said, i will figure this out myself and turned to food. we found her a better food and some days later she had one seizure and never had another one after that; and WITHOUT taking their worthless meds either!

Gosh. right there with ya...again. What might it look like to focus on the holy spirit?
I've wanted/needed to find a mental health professional but have not trusted them for a long time. Every so often i try to contact someone and it's like the universe won't allow it to work out.

God help me. 🙏

Happy Birthday!!! 🥳🎉🎂♥️

Sometimes avoiding more damage IS all that matters. Getting back up and fighting through one more day or hour is what has made us some of the strongest and most qualified for this job. It is a spiritual war; a war of and for the heart. We will win. Love always wins! I am grateful for you because you put my feelings into words that make sense. I used to write, but find I can't arrange my thoughts very well anymore. Thank you for fighting! ♥️

Oh man! I had to check mine. I use burts bees. apparently it's manufactured in Durham, NC. 🤪

Eesh. Was unfamiliar with what that was. Had to look it up. I wasn't trying to speak in code, although for a time, i was looking up the angel numbers associated with my weights as the scale was being weird. 🤪

It's insane. We did a LOT of reading up on vaccines before our first was born just about six years ago and decided against all of them. Drs kept coming in looking at us like idiots and trying to convince us of one thing or another including their safety. We did momentarily question the decision with the baby since she was so premature but ultimately decided against them again. Im glad we did. She is still healthier than most term babies and kids her age.

Haha. Thanks! Yes, they do. We haven't really told people what's up other than she's sick. It's the other reason we wanted to avoid taking her in somewhere as I felt it would imply vax status and I don't want to deal with the lectures and looks like I'm a crazy person. Also, drs REALLY don't like when I show up and tell them what the diagnosis is. I knew it'd be safe asking for prayers here to this group. So glad there is someplace where i can find others who think similarly to myself. ♥️

Thank you! I was trying to avoid the tylenol when it was just fever a couple of weeks ago but after a while I couldn't let her be in pain anymore.

Thank you! 🙏 She's had enough suffering in her lifetime. 😔

Thank you. It's so back and forth. ugh. We're just ready to see her happy again!

Thank you so much! Almost immediately after I posted this last night night she woke up talking, then played and ate a lot until bedtime. Her temp was also back to normal until this afternoon when she napped through her next dose of Tylenol. The swelling is also much better than it was. I'm hopeful that she's through the worst of it. 🙏

🙏♥️

Thank you for the tip! And the prayers! I had chicken pox but pretty sure I didn't have the mumps. Born in 81, I'm sure i would have been vaccinated for that. I knew the mumps weren't a huge deal outside of the pain, but I kept worrying that it was something else that I could be missing. She seems to be on the mend, although her fever is back after her nap this afternoon. Thank you and everyone for your continued prayers! ♥️

Thank you! 🙏 She's been getting Tylenol plus whatever natural remedies we think she can manage and breast milk!

Thank you! That was beautiful ❤️

Thank you! When she was born last Easter, i prepared myself for the worst but she is the greatest warrior I know! She sailed through the nicu with very few issues. I can't tell you the amount of miracles I feel it's taken for her to be here today. We kept being told about how she would always be immunocompromised but I didn't believe it then and i don't now. She is doing amazing today,by the way! I'll post a separate update soon, but it was literally minutes after I posted this that she woke up and started talking, then playing and ate SO much food! I am beyond overwhelmed at the response from everyone. Thank you so much! ♥️♥️♥️♥️

Thank you so much! ♥️ We've taken a more natural approach with our girls but she was born at 1lb 6oz so every illness scares me with her. This has been much harder to go through and has had me second guessing myself and my instincts. I felt much better when i realized it was the mumps, like i knew what to do and what to expect... it's just so hard seeing her in any pain. We'll look into the switchel! Apparently I can get some nearby! Thank you for the suggestion!

hehehe. we were actually using onions today! Raw onion and also made a poultice but hadnt thought to try putting drops in her ears. Thank you for your reply and your prayers! I am beyond appreciative and am overwhelmed by yours and everyones response. I honestly thought maybe one person would even see this.

Thank you! ♥️

Thank you so much! ♥️

Thank you. 🙏 The fever hasnt gotten too high but she's been so out of it for most of the day for the past few days. She was/is a preemie too so i worry extra about everything with her. She always proves her strength but it doesn't make it any easier to deal with. I think we're through the worst of it. I just keep expecting the next day to be better than it ends up being.
