A gentle "peace" settled over me as I became sicker as the day progressed with a full blown head cold with the coughing and runny nose. However, ...my wife's family and the neighbors, ...they avoided me like I "was" contagious. But my Father has a way of "straightening" things out, ...it became "official," the first case of the virus on this island was reported the following Tuesday and the person infected returned from France on Friday, ...two days after they thought I was showing the symptoms. My reaction to the family and neighbors was in the Love of Christ, ...most are religious, but lost, ...my attitude wasn't resentful or angry, but rather, "Father, forgive them, they don't know what they are doing." Saturday I went to the hardware store and there tucked away and "hidden" behind some goods were two "profession" masks for sanding paint that contains lead, ...God is so good to me! Me, I resorted to the same home remedy I always use for colds, ...hot chicken broth soup and the cold passed in a few days, ...my confidence "physically" is in chicken soup, ...and "spiritually" in my God, Jehovah Rapha, the God that heals me and has been actively healing me since my "moment" of conception over 70 years ago, ...whatever method and however He chooses to perform a "healing" in my life. May I humbly suggest you read up on the actual symptoms of the virus, ...a sore throat, fever and shortness of breath, ...can you take a very deep breath and hold it, are your coughs deep and long or are they short, because you can't breath, ...I'm not an medical expert, ...just repeating what I have heard from those that are. Lord bless 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi brother, I'm still in the throes of a really bad flu-like illness, so my heart goes out to you. I'll certainly be praying your symptoms lessen and you'll recover to full health once again. It's hard to expect much from those who are already in a cultish and superscious faith steeped in Catholicism. Don't expect your usual brotherly love in this instance, because it's not likely to be expected. Forgive them on the ignorance and remember the entire world seems panic stricken right now. Your symptoms don't appear to be COVID-19, but if they don't clear or improve, do seek medical attention. God bless you. Shalom, David/BeauJangles 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be nice if they would ask you if you needed anything even if they kept their distance. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This morning at 6:00 am as our morning shift of nurses came through the stringent screening process, one of our CNA's = certified nursing assistants saw me hanging out in the doorway in my room. She saw me looking kinda bewildered and pretty down. Then gave me a big ol' bear hug because she really does care about me. That brightened up my day considerably. Little things like that now that we're in such a hard lock-down quarantine sure makes me feel a little better.

Romans 12:12 "Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse. Rejoice with those who rejoice, and weep with those who weep. Be of the same mind toward one another; do not be haughty in mind, but associate with the lowly. Do not be wise in your own estimation. Never pay back evil for evil to anyone. Respect what is right in the sight of all men. If possible, so far as it depends on you, be at peace with all men." James 3:8 "But no one can tame the tongue; it is a restless evil and full of deadly poison. With it we bless our Lord and Father, and with it we curse men, who have been made in the likeness of God; from the same mouth come both blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not to be this way. Does a fountain send out from the same opening both fresh and bitter water? Can a fig tree, my brethren, produce olives, or a vine produce figs? Nor can salt water produce fresh." -Pv- Edited March 19, 2020 by -Pv- 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neighbor Posted March 19, 2020 Group: Worthy Ministers Followers: 18 Topic Count: 958 Topics Per Day: 0.35 Content Count: 13,641 Content Per Day: 5.03 Reputation: 9,083 Days Won: 6 Joined: 12/04/2016 Status: Offline Birthday: 03/03/1885 Share Posted March 19, 2020 Received an e-mail from Bay Care stating that as of today there is mobile testing at several locales in my area, but one has to get script from their doctor first in order to be tested. With my seasonal allergy to the oaks and resulting annual illness, I have simply self isolated and taken Cipro. I'm feeling better, much better, but now just have the dry cough of the allergy. Normally I would be out and about, but this year I am staying put as to not freak out others when I do cough. My wife also has the same issue. We make a pair, hacking. She has appointments with her doctor coming up next week. So we will see what that leads to as far as testing goes. I am pleased that there is testing now. Feeling cooped up for sure, (Been inside nine days now) but going outside just does either of us no good. It is yellow rain out there. We take Vitamin c, zinc, and B's -seems to help some. Not doing anything, so sleep schedule is way off. I got a couple hours last night, none the night before. And; today I did what I thought I would never ever do, I joined augh, Facebook, in order to keep up with our churches that we associate with, for daily prayer meetings, plus also Saturday and Sunday services. All of which have gone to using Facebook. Wow, I have no clue about Facebook, looks like everyone I have ever known is listed, and I get want to be friends notices one after the other. No cyber bombs yet. Guess I will simply be like the rest of the herd. I am amazed the system knows everyone that I have ever known. Very strange day for me. I haven't a clue yet how to use it. Ha I am a dinosaur. ps. - I have called all my relatives to make sure they are not in any need. Everyone is doing really well. And life goes on. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
