"My Testimony...."
Ok, so I have MS, diagnosed in late 1979 or early 1980. I had never heard of it before so it caused no major fear. I contacted a wonderful lady who was the president of our local MS chapter. She and I talked for hours and she confirmed her belief that I had MS. She was elderly and had gotten MS when she was in high school so she knew all there was to know, basically. She gave me a lot of material to read and I went back to visit her often as she was a shut-in and loved company. I'd rearrange her MS material cabinets for her and do other cleaning. We talked for hours and she asked me if I would be interested in forming a support group for the MS patients in this area. I agreed, as I was still quite mobile.
After awhile I went back to work in the factory and the heat and humidity was more than I could stand. I kept getting faint all the time and Dick would have to take me home. I battled staying on as long as I could as I needed to get in my vested pension. The longer you were there the more pension you could collect later.
Three years after the myelogram I slipped on a piece of waxed cardboard at work and sustained a back injury. I had to see an ortho-pedic doctor.
After the x-rays he asked me when I had a myelogram.
I was stunned and asked him how he knew I had one. He told me there was some dye in there yet.
I knew now why the doctor that had done the myelogram proceedure had said "Oh just forget it, remove the needle."
He was upset that I was in such pain and just gave up.
The orthopedic doctor asked me lots of questions about the proceedure and shook his head a lot. When I told him about the headache and how long it lasted and how the light hurt my eyes he didn't hesitate and told me right away I had an allergic reaction to the dye that was put into my spinal column. I found out years later that there is iodine in the fluid that they inject and that I am allergic to iodine. It is amazing how much you learn by trial and error when it comes to medical proceedure because you aren't told much unless you know the right questions to ask.
Well, we get past the back injury and I go back to work but I continue to get faint and am losing a lot of time on the job and the medical doctor is getting pretty impatient with me. He finally told me to either get out of the factory or he could not be responsible for my well being anymore as I think he felt there was a good chance I could faint and hit my head and really hurt myself.
So I quit the job. Now what am I going to do? I am a very active person and I need to keep busy. I had formed the MS support group and was putting in a lot of hours doing research on MS, sending out notices on monthly meetings, and arranging to get doctors on our MS board that knew a lot about the subject so we all could become more informed and  better take care of ourselves.
We named our group Quest and I ran it for about two years. I was still dealing with major symptoms sometimes and they were never the same from day to day. I never knew what was going to happen next.The list was on-going. Some days I was so weak, I didn't think I could get out of bed. I was continually dropping things, slurring my words and tangling up my sentences. The list is on-going but I am trying to stay very active.
I have incorporated a major amount of spirituality in our monthly meetings and the people seemed to really enjoy this except for a few.
Dicks mom called one day and informed us that a healing priest was coming to town and she wanted us to go really bad. Dick is really quiet and shy, not a people person at all and there was no way he wanted to go.
He finally relented and on Sept.24-1983 Father Di Orio was in town at Wahlert H.S. and we were in the audiance.
I was one of the lucky ones to be prayed over. I was slain in the spirit and healed by God. I recieved a complete healing from my MS. I can say, I have not had a single symptom of the MS since, and I praise and thank God for it daily.
Dedes Note: Do you have areas in your life that could use some healing?
God is capable of anything. The issues here are believing in Him and Trusting. Let go and let God!
He can do anything if you allow it to happen.
