    Thank you, Missy. Yes, the swelling and redness is gone. The eyelid is still droopy, I guess from being stretched by the balloon swelling. I love my new PC. My family members have all recovered from Covid though my sister who is diabetic has to have temporary nurse home visits after a 2 week hospital stay. I'm still trying to cope with living in this new world without my dear friend. But God is good and I know I'll be fine. I think I'll post this later on--thanking FanStory family for their prayers.

Thanks for staying in touch. I just checked in with fanstory after I took a hiatus from it to refresh and get real world work done. So sorry for all your loses. Your CS Lewis writing and faith shine and it is much more valuable as face all the hurts and heartaches. Blessings ahead Bird city lady. I hear you and pray... Ephesians 3:20.

    "Now unto Him who is able..." Thank you, I turned right to it and read it out loud. God bless you. It's one of my favorite scriptures.

My prayers are with you and your family. These are trying times, but you have had more than your share of loses and illness. I'm sorry to read about your family members and your dearest friend. Keep in mind, you can always communicate with your FanStory family of writers like yourself. We are willing to read and respond.

Heavenly Father, You know how deep amahra's grief is. You are merciful and kind and can comfort her wounded heart. Thank you for letting her lean on you. I pray, in the mighty name of Jesus. Amen.

I'm so sorry to hear about your friend. My deepest condolences.

I will be praying for you, for God to heal you and bless you in these difficult times.

I have a friend who also has Covid, but thankfully he is doing okay, for now.

Keep strong and I look forward to reading your writing again soon.

Blessings.

I'm so sorry about all the loss and tragedy hitting all at once. I'm sure it's overwhelming and I hope things are better soon. You are in my thoughts and prayers! After two shots and a booster, I've still been fighting Corona for going on two weeks. So, please, don't think any of us are totally safe.

Stay safe and healthy!

    Thank you, Ric. I'm glade you're taking care of yourself. The booster shots have been changed from six to five months after 2nd shot. Some kind of new strain or something. Anyway, thanks for your concern and prayers.

I'm so sorry all this has happened to you. I know you aren't looking for pity, just explaining. These are truly dark days for you, and I can relate since I lost a son last year. It seems these times will never end, but things will get better. You must believe that. I will keep you in my prayers, and hope things get better for you very soon.

    Thank you very much, Yvonne. You are so appreciated.

    Oh, Yvonne, what was I thinking? I was so absorbed by my on state of mine, I forgot to give you my condolence for your son. It was only after I read my reviews for the second time (I do that sometimes) that I discovered I had overlooked your loss.
reply by damommy on 27-Jan-2022
    Please don't worry about that. I understand, but thank you for explaining.

Amahra, what a terrible time you are having! I did wonder why you've not posted for awhile. Your reviews are that much more appreciated. I'm so sorry for your loss. Sending hugs and prayers your way.

Well, I wish I had read this before I read the last chapter of your novel. You've been through more than one person should, my dear Amahra. I'm so sorry for the death of a close friend to Covid and the death of your Ex. And then, for a writer to lose the use of one eye (even temporarily) and the computer (permanently) that bore the stamp of your writing ... that's tough.

You are in my thoughts and prayers, Amahra. Rest, get well and stay well, and I will patiently wait for your return.

Jay

    Thank you, Jay. I really appreciate your thoughts and prayers. My primary doctor said if the cream didn't work, she'd prescribe the pills.
reply by Jay Squires on 25-Jan-2022
    If that's the cream you put under your lower lid, I'm familiar with it. I think I was successful only once getting it there.
reply by the author on 25-Jan-2022
    Yep, that's the one. It's impossible to do it without the tip touching some part of the eye. Erythromycin Ophthalmic Ointment. I've been using it since Friday afternoon. Maybe it needs more time. I'll give it until Friday.
reply by Jay Squires on 25-Jan-2022
    Ask her assurance that the pills don't go in the eye!
reply by the author on 25-Jan-2022
    LOL I'm sure it's by mouth. I sent a picture of my eye to my son. The eyelid is swollen and red. There's no pain but it itches like the devil. Did yours do that?
reply by Jay Squires on 25-Jan-2022
    It's been probably 10 years since. No, not itching. Crustiness, eye stuck shut on waking. But that goop I had to lay inside the lid (read: on my cheek) is not soon to be forgotten.
