We are the lucky ones. Pass it on !!

I encourage seeing this time of being forced to hunker down as an opportunity. Those of us who are in recovery from child abuse and trauma have vast experience in isolation and denial.

This is a chance for NAASCA members to reach out even more often to those we can positively affect with our message and mission, that we are NOT alone. A day at a time we will never have to wonder if we are wanted, needed, appreciated as members of the NAASCA family.

After all, the majority of our work is done via phone and Internet, and from our homes! We can connect in many ways. We can share on Facebook, participate on our radio shows, even write or call someone and simply say, “I was just thinking of you.”

You will immediately brighten their day, and make new friends at the same time.

Each of us knows scores of people, hundreds perhaps, who feel the loneliness and isolation of these trying times. But we can change that.

We are the lucky ones, because we never need to search for an opportunity to belong .. and to serve.

This was from a post on one of my Facebook groups a bit ago. I’ll just leave that here for now.

Good morning all, happy March 😊 praying everyone is doing well. Hubby and I have been home since Monday afternoon. I don’t usually share too many personal details, however, hubby was diagnosed with stage two thyroid cancer last October. We saw the first surgeon that was supposed to do his surgery, he had a job/educational offer come up, so, he took it, leaving our surgery and care with his counterpart, which we found, we liked him better.

Anyhow, had to go thru a whole rigamarole to get it scheduled and travel and childcare and stay there while we were there, thankfully we had some family and extended family to help us out. Thank you Jesus. Our stay while hubby was in the hospital and while we were staying in the motel and the inn attached to the hospital, was awesome. I will leave my review for the hospital, the hotel and the restaurant we ate at that first night in Ann arbor, on Google.

I’ve been myself dealing with some health issues that almost nobody can fully figure out. Saw a new neurologist/opthalmologist last Weds. He put me on some new meds, which I’m not real fond of. However, I’m trying to give them the benefit of the doubt, but it’s real hard. He diagnosed me with occipital neuralgia. It sucks, because on the outside, I appear nothing wrong, unless you know me well, but on the inside, I battle with different issues in my head, neck, digestive system. I’ll write about that in the upcoming weeks.

So, that being said, I’m off for now, enjoy my company. Have a blessed day all.
