Yes! My husband of 40 years. At the age of 58 (I am 61 now) I was diagnosed with a disease that progressively and steadily is not only effecting brain function but all body functions as well. I will keep getting worse as there is no cure nor remission. Of course I just wanted to give up. It was a very dark time as life as I knew it was gone. He’s been my biggest cheerleader and supporter! :)

I used to. I miss DarthAlgar so dang much.

My family. Not really an issue of “Giving up on myself”, as it is matter of being mule headed and having a dislike of hospitals and medical procedures. I took a nasty fall at work last year, and banged my head into a wall. Thought nothing of it really as it did not hurt and I could feel or see no blood. A few days later my oldest grandson suddenly came over with his wife, and told me that his Nanna, my wife, had called and said I was slurring my speach and acting goofy. I was then put in the car and they took me to an emergency room. Briefly I had bleeding on the brain and required surgery. When I came to, I was told that if my family hadn’t acted so quickly and responsibly I would have died..so I owe my continued existence to my wife and grand son.

When I was on campus, I met a friend who opened my eyes to recognize another friend who has NEVER given up on me even through the times I thought I was at the end of the tunnel. Then He gave me guidelines that changed my life forever. One of them is meditation; this is the secret to my health status, prosperity, growth, development, etc. I saw a post somewhere that explains how he taught me exactly…https://ireport247.com/what-is-meditation-the-how-and-why-we-need-to-meditate-as-a-christian/
