I was praying about 3 weeks ago for someone who asked for God to answer her and no longer be silent....... and while I was praying for her, I just said boldly, yes Daddy I'd like to hear from you too...... maybe you can give me a sign? And POOOOOFFFFF all the pain was out of my legs....... I was very happy with that, although I was afraid it was temporary....... so I didn't share it yet here........
Now we're 3 weeks further and all the pain I have in my legs is from using them! Granted, I still need a special brace for my leg and I do have some bad backpains for the wrong way of moving (I'll need therapy for that too) but I am walking again!![]()

It took me about 2 weeks to feel secure again and now I walk alone in the house..... sometimes I need Charles to help me walk but most of the time I do it by myself...... I am now a great help in the house, I go to the kitchen and clean something or cut veggies for Charles or help him in another way, and I can go to the bathroom myself again which is so much better! I have also taken up myself to do the laundry again...... Charles still helps a bit but I love doing it! I even ironed a few shirts a few days ago, although that was difficult for my back....... I have to be careful anyway, because everything above my legs is not healed at all...... so I still have arm and handpains and bladderpains are there regularly too....... but for the most part I am at least a few hours out of bed in the daytime..... at least every evening after supper when we do Biblestudy....... depending on my bladder...... today has been a great day as my bladder didn't hurt....... so I could help out Charles a lot with laundry, helping to prepare supper (cutting everything (onions, sprouts and mushrooms)) and Charles also showered me.... I still do that sitting down when he washes my hair, but for rinsing and drying me I stand straight up!
Everything is so much easier when you can stand up straight....... we've been exercising walking and standing together and although it was hard in the beginning and it is still not easy, we achieved so much that I didn't want to withold it from you all any longer.........
I have an appointment with the rehab doc on December 10, and then we'll see if I need a new brace and if I need therapy........ I'll ask for prayers when it's that time......
Even if it never comes any further than this, we're already happy with the progress....... usually when we go out, I suffer from that a day later..... and now: NOTHING! I can be just as active the next day!
So now you know why I am smiling so much...... I thank our Lord so much for this miracle! Even though He only partly healed me, I am so grateful for that..... and He was so right..... if He had healed me completely I would have been obliged to find a job and all that added stress...... now I can just stay home with Charles and enjoy the time we have together!
Thanks Daddy..... I can never thank You enough for this......I love You!
Love you all too,
Mieke![]()





I love You!
