Hi Helen,
This is a good wordflair poem and a good call to prayer. The words and artwork match well.
I will keep all fanstorians in my prayers.
Keep writing and stay healthy.
Good luck in the contest.
Enjoy your day and weekend.
Joan

Often the doctors would nt know what exactly is wrong. The doctors and lab reports say that there is nothing wrong with me other than aging . But they can;t explain my body pain...Physio therapy has not helped my shoulder and hand pain So now only exercising is left...Right hand is better but I am still not able to move my left hand freely ...
I thought Paul Manton was getting better..

    It's frustrating when they can't find the cause. Is there a doctor who knows more of the ayurvedic medicine? My PT studied some techniques which are very nonconventional in western medicine but she was able to determine things without machine scans. Thanks so much for sharing and reviewing! Paul M is probably not returning. His membership ends this month, I believe. Thank you for caring. Hugs!

Thank you for reminding us again about those of our number who are having medical problem and although that prayer often heals when God feels the timing is right and His people are praying.

I tell you again, Helen that you have become a very good poet. :) I haven't written much but I will. Cause if I don't I'll probably will not. I see that you have written wishing all to get better. That's the heart in you. Thank you for sharing.

This is a wonderful poem and set of notes about a very grim topic, Helen. I guess, though, that it's an inevitable fact of life with the age group of many of our FanStory members and spouses, that a number have or will be facing health problems in the coming years and that we will lose some of our friends. It's sad, but we must accept that we are mortal and enjoy as best we can the years we have left.

FanStory has certainly brought many hours of joy and many new friends to me in the past year that I've been a member, and it has enriched my life greatly. It's the ability to share with others our deep passion for writing that helps to keep us strong and to have purpose in our lives. - Jim

    Thank you, Jim! Appreciate the review. Yes, we also lost members every year and that was hard for us, too. Hugs!

You did a great job with this format. I liked your rhymes and the rhyme scheme, and the words you chose worked well. I like how you repeated the last line. Thank you for sharing this with us, and I will pray for those you mentioned. Best wishes.

Diseases and surgeries are a dreadful part of life and we all can use a miracle.

I'll pray with you to have our fanstorians health restored

Thank you very much for bringing it to our attention. I know Jim Vecchio, he is such a good guy, I will send him a message.

    Thank you for caring, MariVal. Jim's daughter is struggling with Covid now. It's a rough winter!

Thank you, Helen, for remembering all of us in your work, and helping us make the journey through the otherwise empty and friendless hospital system.

    It's rough to be in the hospital. I hope you don't have to go in to the hospital when the roads are frozen. We have stayed inside for days now. Hugs and prayers!

    Thank you for praying, Barbara. Do you want me to mention about you? Are you officially on hospice?
    Hugs and prayers!
reply by LovnPeace on 18-Jan-2024
    No I'm not. I consider myself on comfort care. My nurse practioner agreed with me. I don't have medical care and I refuse torturous text. They consider themselves preventative. I am so beyond that and it wouldn't benefit me. Again the NP agreed. God Bless you. I can always use prayers, can't we all, but no public please. Thank you anyway.
reply by the author on 18-Jan-2024
    Okay. I'm glad you got back to me. I'll be praying for you and good decisions for your NP. Hugs! 💖🙏

Great form! Helen, I must tell you how appreciative I am that you take the time and extend the invitation for all of us to pray for our FS family and their love ones! It knew of most, but not all of these. Your updates are so thoughtfully YOU!

    Well, I keep telling people to add to the book because I can't always be here or timely. Thanks so much, Karenina. I'm still needing your update. Hugs!
