Card #80 for 2025

Dear blog readers, I'm just not in a happy 

mood today, I had my 6 week check up and it

didn't go well at all.  I will post the details at the bottom

for those who care.  

Onto the turkey card.  I will enter it in the challenge at:

Atlantic Hearts Sketch challenge

The stamps I used in this card are:

Lawn Fawn: Turkey Day

Stampin up:  Over the river

and a sizzix die for the front.

The sentiment on the front of the card was a bit

tricky, it was a stacked sentiment, but I wanted it 

to be horizontal for this card so it required a little 

patience and effort masking the words and trying

to make sure they lined up.  After a few attempts 

it finally worked.  Coloring in the little turkey

was my favorite part, it was rather relaxing. 

Here's a picture of Patriot pup.  Sometimes 

he can be the sweetest little fella. 

Some one left lovely messages 

on the side walk out front of the

hospital waiting room windows. 

The verse I chose for this card is:

Mark 9:24 KJV

And straightway the father of the child cried out, and said with tears,

 Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief.

Here is a link to what happened this summer:  Surgery and Healing it's at the bottom of the post.  I appreciate all the love and prayers.  Thank you kindly 💗

Update: I had my 6 week appointment after having my stents out of the ureter tube

and sadly it's not going well, that ureter tube is not emptying, and the kidney is enlarged and I now have stones again too.  Drawing my blood was a disaster and the tears fell like a flood, my body is so broken from all that has happened.  It took 2 jabs to the arm, much digging and my hand went numb,

then they had to dig around for a vein in my hand to use finally the the second poke in the hand and searching they were able to prick a vein with the butterfly needle and a small drip.  I'm exhausted.  Please continue to pray for healing if it's God's will to make me whole again.  I'm so heartbroken by this all, it just means the surgery for the ileostomy will now be postponed until we can figure out what to do with my swollen kidney and not working ureter tube, something that is entirely their fault because of the surgery, this shouldn't have been a thing to recovery from, but here we are, and God willing it will be restored by His mighty hand.  Because of who He is and what He can do I trust He will bring me safely through.  Counting it all Joy knowing I can trust Jesus. ✟
