After two weeks of nights where I averaged about 3½ hours of sleep, I was getting desperate. I needed to sleep, and to sleep well. How happy I was when my husband and boys prayed over me one night. Immediately afterwards, I felt impressed to make myself a high protein...
I was witness to two animal miracles this week. My mother's aging cat, Bonnie, was vomiting up yellow bile. When her brother had done the same thing some years ago, he was then diagnosed with liver cancer and he had to be put to sleep, so you can imagine the anguish...
