Dear Shannon, I know exactly how you feel. I think meltdowns come with this territory. BC has given me an enitrely new perspective on life. I would have to say that it is actually a Gift that has caused me to reexamine everything in my life and what is really important. Everyone is fighting a battle of some kind or other. Ours is a physical one for our health. I will tell you what works wonders for me. I go to daily Mass and Holy Communion. That's what gets me through the day to fight this battle with Joy, Patience, Courage and Persistance. I was very confused as to how one could find joy in suffering. Then I began to see little miracles everyday in the people I know.Loving acts of kindness,those offering prayers and meals, watching people return to their faith. I beleive God uses us in important ways to help others return to Him.-And in this process, we are also growing closer to Him. I am really beginning to see a little glimpse of Jesus in all of His children. When I receive Holy Communion, I am the closest I can be to Heaven on earth. God also gives me the strength I need to carry on and I feel extremely blessed with the knowledge that whatever happens, He is in complete control looking out for my best interests. He is truly my Daily Bread and the Way, the Truth and the Life. Always trust in Him, Shannon.He loves you as if you were the only one on earth and He holds you in the palm of His Hand. God Bless You- Cathy
