Prayer request

This is embarrassing, but I need to tell you this and ask for your support in prayer. It is about my addiction to food. My addiction to food has cost my family so much. First I had a stroke in November due to my hypertension caused by my being obese. I have not been able to work because my rapid recall is now gone. When you are a nurse you kinda need that! Since our finances have been cut well over half, we are losing everything. Tomorrow they are selling our house on the courthouse square due to forclosure. All this has caused us to file bankruptcy. People think that an addiction to food can only hurt you, but in reality, if the addiction isn't dealt with, it will start to consume those around you, like it has mine. Addiction runs in my family, my addiction just happened to be food. I never understood my other famiy members addiction, and why they couldn't quit. I know now why. I had to come to a realization that I truly had an addiction to food. That realization came with my stroke. I knew I was overweight, I just didn't want to admit I had a problem. That is when I realized the truth.No, I believe I realized it sooner, I was just in denial, Therefore, I just didn't act upon a way to recover until then.  I know I need help with this, so I have turned it over to Christ for His help. That is why I have been working so hard at getting the weight loss surgery done too. I need all the help I can get. I have posted that my surgery is June 13th. If all goes well I will have it then. Tomorrow is going to be a big day. I need your prayers more than ever. My husband built this house for us to retire in so we could live happily ever after. I know we are still going to live happily ever after, for we have each other. Only this time our story will read,"Once upon a time there was a man who had a thinner, healthier, happier wife.....and they lived happily ever after."Thanks for your support in prayer.

Oh Rethy,  I am so sorry about all that is going on for you at the moment!!! I know where you care coming from and how it must be making you feel..... I have not actually lost my home over my obesity...But my kids and myself could have had a better life by now if I had been able to work. I have been on dissability for almost 10 years now.....I live off 1/3 to 1/2 of what I could be living off of if I could hold down a job....I have never even been able to take my kids on an actual vacaton!!!! I will be praying for you....Hang in there...Your surgery date is not far away now and then you will be on your way to loosing that weight and closer to being able to get back to work!!!!  Hugs....Tammy H.

I wanted to let you know that the lawyer who was suppose to do the auctioning of my house did not show up. Neither did any one else except our neighbor. They are good friends of ours and they whould benifit from having a bigger house. This house would be just right for them. The starting bid on our house was going to be 105,000.00, which our neighbors could not afford. Therefore, they are going to contact the lawyers office and see if they can get it at a lower price. IF they do, they have a two bedroom house that they could rent to us, which would be perfect, since all our kids are grown. So continue to remeber us in your prayers. Thanks for all that you do.
