Life through my Eyes

Counting your Blessings

I have realized in the past few years that I truly wouldn't have been here if I hadn't been so blessed. Here is a short bio of my life near misses.

First my parents almost didn't meet. So, to look at it that way I would have been someone else not my adorable self as my granddaughter says.. When I turned 5, my appendix burst and gang green had set in. Forcing an emergency surgery to save my life. I have had 9 abdominal surgeries in my life. Which were all emergency surgeries to safe my life due to, you guessed it from the first surgery, at least the first 6.

It caused so much havoc it spanned throughout my life time. Built-up scar tissue can cause major damage if not done correctly. The first 6 were from it, the last 3 were Gall bladder and Kidney stones at the same time no doubt. Double whammy.... Can someone say OUCH? I know and believe that there will be no more surgeries for me. God Almighty has taken care of that.

Now that hasn't counted the other times that were close calls. Like the time my ex-husband caught me in midair falling off a cliff near Pismo Beach, CA. Folks , when I say midair, my feet were not touching the ground. You can't tell him or me that God was not there holding me as well. We still shutter the thought that I would have not survived that fall.

Well, now you see why I have alot of blessings to count. If I hadn't been born or my life saved numerous times I would never have gotten too see or hold my grandbabies. Much less write this or anything else of mine. I wouldn't get to give hugzzzz to everyone that I meet or have met.

I hope that you can reflect upon your blessings as well. I thank our Heavenly Father in heaven for who I am and for the many blessings He has given me everyday.

So here are some major and lots of as well.

Goodnight until we meet again
