Life goes on as usual with all the highs and lows that comes with it. Here I am, new to a great country, and the system

America has great opportunities for everyone, but you have to work at it, it’s a beautiful thing for me to see.

There is a saying that goes… ” you got to do what u got to do” it took a while for me to understand it.

You’ve got to work at every single thing. You have to quickly learn and adhere to the rules and laws as well. You suffer the consequences if you don’t. Don’t be a scapegoat as I was…

Something happened to me that I’ll never forget, I was traveling through the subway, I had a ticket alright to swipe for the bars to open for me to enter the platforms…but I saw a little gate on the side open and some people were going through that gate, I was in a rush and also went through the gate and boom!! the police pounced on me. You can imagine my shock. That gate is only opened when you carry large baggage, a baby stroller, etc, and have swiped your ticket. I didn’t know all these. Lesson learned the hard way. Ha-ha

So back to the health update…

I kept having the scans to monitor the brain aneurysm, and for about three to four years it was still stable, so I did not do the intervention even though doctors recommended I do it.

I did have the routine MRI one day and the results wasn’t what I wanted to hear, the size of the aneurysm has increased! it’s also located right behind the left eye… it has to be done now. They described it as a ticking bomb in my brain.

This song just dropped in my spirit as I write this… sing with me if you can.

Oh Lord my God,

When I in awesome wonder,

Consider all the works thy hands have made,

I see the stars… I hear the mighty thunder,

Thy power throughout

The universe displayed

Then sings my soul,

My savior God to thee

How great thou art!

How great thou art!

Then sings my soul my savior God to thee, how great thou art, how great thou art!!

Why am I singing when faced with this: you would ask? I sing because the Lord loves me too much, he has shown me mercy and grace.

If you know exactly what an aneurysm is, how it just destroys life suddenly, and for me how it was even diagnosed, how I lived with it for almost ten years without having surgery … it can only be God. Thank you, Lord!

Story continues…

Christ in you the hope of glory.
