• The Power of Prayer.

  Yesterday for the first time I experienced what you may know as a panic attack/anxiety attack.
  I was so in pain yesterday that I was about to go to the hospital to have my tooth yanked out..Of course only after being heavily sedated with the most potent anesthesia.  The pain would grow worse after I would eat and at around 3:30 after taking Angel out to lunch I came home and attempted to eat I began to cry. I was in so much pain..So, me being so curious went on youtube to see some extraction of wisdom videos. It was so graphic (and since I have never EVER been to a dentist in my life because I have a phobia) I went into panic mood. I began to sweat, breathe heavily, and my face literally went numb. I could not breathe and I could not feel my face.

  I thought I was going to pass out and little Angel came out running to me. I turned off the computer and tried to compose myself.  My mother (probably having that motherly instinct) that something was wrong called and heard me panting and crying. She came right over (she works across the street from our home on Saturday's and Sundays.) She bought with her some vinegar, and some tylenol 3 that her co worker sent to me.
  My stepfather called to offer to stay home with Angel so that I can go to the hospital but I said that I would go in the night when mommy came home.
  
  I appreciated everyone being concerned.
  
  So the night went on I took some tylenol 3 and that kind of numb the pain for a bit. But not completely.
  At 8 P.M my mom came home and I offered her something to eat, she ate some cheeseburgers and fries I had bought for Angel but Angel did not finish eating. I would have made dinner but my mom told me not to cook anything, she knew I was in bad shape.

  After that my mom decided to pray for me..Now, I don't mean to call her a saint or a miracle worker, but when my mother prays, it's like woah, whatever I have will go away.

  Last year in July when I had a slipped disc she prayed and I didn't need surgery or therapy.
  December last year, bumps were growing all over my left breasts, she prayed and the next day the lumps began to go away, needless to say I haven't seen a bump since Praise the Lord.

  And last night she prayed for my tooth pain, not only did I sleep well unlike the night before, but I woke up feeling less pain than yesterday. The bump on my gum has become smaller and I ate breakfast with no pain..PRAISE GOD AGAIN!! Right now it's about to be 10 A.M and I feel hardly any pain. It's amazing. I give God the Glory and all praise because he is my healer..
  
  I told the Lord last night that I will testify about this in church once I feel I am completely healed. The power of miracle is glorious. There truly is nothing impossible for our God.

  But on to other things, my mom's birthday is like in 3 weeks, March 28 to be exact.
  A surprise birthday is out of the question. She already told me she does not want a party, she wants to go out somewhere.
  
  I'm thinking about taking her out to this Museum Exhibit called "Bodies" in the city. Something I already went to see last year with Angel and that I know my mom would absolutely love. After that I can take her to eat at this nice restaurant in the City my friend recommended where the seafood is delicious.

  But I do want to do something different and nice. Something she will never forget. I've even been pondering contracting some Mariachi to come sing happy birthday early that morning. It's something she has always dreamed of and I wish I could fulfill that dream. I'm going to find out how much it costs.

  I'll keep you guys posted though.

  I think I will stay home today.
  I already bathed Angel and semi cleaned the floors, right now I am about to thoroughly clean our bathroom and then shower and start marinating the steak for tonite.
  
  I hope the tooth pain is gone for good though.
