Something most people take for granted: HEARING
Hearing normally! Wow...unless you've 'worn these shoes'....you can not know the JOY of being able to hear normally. Today----after 10 months of deafness...I CAN HEAR. Praise God for answering my prayers. I had almost become RESOLVED to accepting what many others already have...being Deaf.
After battling stage 5 cancer and a new experimental type of treatment (5 surgeries)...unknown to me and my doctors....the inside of my ears died to a degree from chemical burn.
Here we go with the EAR education class 409 (cleanzer ha ha)...or maybe it was WD 40?
It seems that beside regular old EAR WAX the human ear HAS TO HAVE an oil secretion from the inside of the ear canals/channels. (not antennas now..ha ha)
My severe experimental cancer treatment for which I am grateful to God for...and his science/doctors/nurses....even tho I turned brown as well...then replaced the brown with more moles...which I didn't think that was possible. ha ha
The process also...burned up/baked/destroyed the normal process inside my ears for producing OIL for the skin inside. (this is similar to the...ha ha....feathers on a ducks back....they naturally produce OIL on their feathers...thus 'water on a ducks back simply ROLLS off".
Ears operate the same method. Water and ears do not MIX...that's straight from the highest of Medical experts. (even tho last August...my family doctor WASHED MY EARS OUT WITH A HIGH POWERED HOT BUBBLY...FIRE HOSE...HAHA....then accidently broke my ear drum trying to get a lump of natural wax out. (gee ain't life fun...when one doctor does this and others do that.... and YOUR THA VICTIM! ha ha)
Anyway...the BioCobalt/radiation/chemo mixture in a balloon...inside my chest...stopped this DUCKS oil tank up (ha ha) and ....it's taken this many months to get it cleared up.
Again, I gratefully praise God for this blessing. Because to those of you who have never had a hearing loss...it causes DIZZINESS, HEADACHES, WALKING LIKE A DRUNK, FALLING, FUMBLING, DISORIENTATIONS. The normal sounds ....what few you can hear...in a hollow well...seem to come from totally the OPPOSITE direction. You can not sing...my favorite hobby. It is EXTREMELY hard to even talk....because you cannot tell how low or loud you are speaking...this strains all your throat, jaws, chest muscles....weird...but true. It hurts! Depression is normal--- from just TRYING to exist. Face muscle even react, eyes squinting till your head hurts---BUT YOU DO LEARN to read LIPS! HA HA
So, after 10 months...my Specialist--with awesome knowledge and medical equipment....as he said "sucked my brains out right through my ears"...ha ha AND INSTANTLY...I could hear!
The humorous side to this most appreciated blessing----is that now I laugh in remembering the hit music record of Garth Brooks years ago...about "be careful for what you pray for".
I prayed to be healed. I was healed! ...... :-)
That night...as every night...I took all my tons of required medicines....and my wonderful, beloved AMBIEN CR... sleeping pill~~~which KNOCKS me out totally in 30 minutes....er normally.
But THAT night...I COULD HEAR EVERY SOUND....birds screaming outside my window, neighbors dogs barking. cats fighting, a jillion trucks/cars/motorcyles going 80 to nothing up and down the highway....a moth caught in the window screen, the clock TICKING like a UNITED STATES AIR FORCE DRUMMER~~~~~~~~~~~~~~and my beloved husband of 49 years---SNORING, SNORING, SNORING....the rafters were not just shaking...they were MOVING to the beat! LOL
But, ya know....I honestly can say I LOVE IT. AmbienCR usually does a pretty good job...but that night...from 9 PM until after midnight....I simply enjoyed laying next to this ROARING LION...just being.... being comfortable.... feeling God's presence.... and Knowing HIS gift and love....His healing power...because~~~~I CAN HEAR again!
Dear ones who have never walked this road...I pray you never have to....and to the dear one who DO~~~~please know I am praying for you, too! For so grateful...am I~~~~~~~~~~~
