Gifts and Blessings

Yesterday, I was still having the headache a bit but it was tolerable, and I didn't want to feel the pain again so I woke up early and stayed in the living room and kitchen because when I rested too much, the pain got worse. Walking every now and then and just sitting was what I did. In the afternoon, we went to Tahlia street and window shopped just so I won't sleep at home and won't get the headache again. Our last stop was in Jeddah mall and we ate my favorite yemeni food. I forgot to take a picture of it and I don't know its name. All I know is that it's tuna and there was arabic bread. I also had adani tea. We ate until full and we stayed there until 8:00, I think but I was really tired.

When we arrived here in our flat, it was when I felt my body so tired. I wasn't dizzy but I felt like I was beaten. I couldn't sleep, too and only got to sleep by 1:00 AM. I had slight fever last night but didn't tell anyone. Anyway, today i woke up at 11 AM and just rested while my dad was at work, my mom did the groceries and my sister was in her violin practice.

We also had a visitor and I received these gifts. I really loved it! Thank you for the gifts! 😊😍

 

Also daddy came home with pizza and mommy cooked veggies with shrimp and bagoong! Yummy snack and dinner! 😍😄

Thank you God for the gifts and blessings! And not only that, a friend of daddy arrived who is a lay minister and told me he would be visiting every night or as often as he could so I could receive communion and also pray novena to the Holy Spirit. I was a bit hesitant before he came but I know this is a gift from God so I mustn't hesitate or reject it.

Prayers are my source of hope. Early in the morning, I thank God for giving me another day to live and another chance at life then I offer my feelings and emotions to God and offer all of what will be happening throughout the whole day to Him and then ask Him to fill me with His love and mercy. I pray the apostle's creed, the Lord's prayer, say the Hail Mary then pray 27 Glory Be's as I am already 27 years old. Every Glory Be is for every year that I have lived on earth. I followed the way of prayer of St. Therese of Lisieux, my favorite saint. I end the prayer with the Fatima prayer. At night, I also pray before going to sleep. The Prayer for the Jubilee Year of Mercy and the Divine mercy chaplet with intentions. I think we should take a little of our time to pray everyday. Nowadays, it is hard to have time to pray but when I think of it, being alive and healthy is the more reason we should pray because we can. It doesn't have to be a very long prayer but having a conversation with God every now and then for a minute within a day will do.

By the way, I have thought a new product that I will be using to start raising funds for my ATG. I'm in the process of developing my skills for it through youtube so please stay tuned. I won't be telling you what it is for now but I think it is fun and I have just enough energy to do it. I also think it's cute and that you will love it.

Thanks for visiting my blog. Please support me in raising my funds to be able to undergo treatment and raising awareness about Aplastic anemia or bone marrow failure. God bless!
