My husband has Cirrhosis: Stage:4 Final Stages of Liver Failure, with a "T.I.P.S. Shunt Placement". He is fighting for his life. He has severe fibrosis, scarring of the liver. We was told that before he could get a Liver Transplant he would have to be treated for "Hepatitis: C". The combo therapy treatment is extremely dangerous for someone with "Severe Cirrhosis". With no other options we accepted the treatment. With each shot my husband was becoming worse. He was experiencing "every" Common Side effect and "every" Serious Side effect from the Combo treatment. I give him '1 shot' a week. We reached 'week 6' and he was worse. We went to bed and I fell asleep. At Midnight he got up to go to the bathroom and was falling down and getting up and falling down and falling into stuff. He made it back to the bed and said, "I'm not able to walk. " I heard him and woke up, asking "What do you mean you can't walk? What's going on?" He said, "I got up to go to the bathroom and was falling down everywhere I can't walk. I'm dying." He then claimed he's not going to take anymore of his medicine. On October 4th he didn't take his medication all day. I was scared and tried to contact both of his Doctors to know what to do for him. They explained how important it was for him to continue the medication. My husband still refused to take it. I took him to his other Dr. on October 5th which he had a talk with him and he explained how important the meds were. The Dr. reduced his dosage. Later on that day a miracle from God happened! His test results came back showing he was now "Hep. C. Undetected!!!!!" Praise God!!! He has 'Agreed' to finish out the other 5 to 6 weeks left of treatment! God is a Healer! All things Are possible with Him! Usually people have to take the combo treatment for 1 to 2 years, some longer than that. The Doctors wasn't even expecting this medicine to work being my Husband was as sick as he is. Nor did any of us think it would have worked as quickly as it did! God hears our prayers and He does answer us all we have to do is trust Him with all that we have in us and to be patient. No matter what we are faced with in life...God will rescue us all we have to do is call upon Him! My husband was at death's door and with prayer, faith and trust in God...God spared his life and he was healed of the Hepatitis C! (I want you to know that what God has done in my life He will also do in yours!!!!!) Father God loves All of us, no matter what. We just have to have faith, love and trust in Him! There is Hope for we have an Awesome God that can do All things!!!!! ~~~~ God Bless You! Much love, Pastor MadonnaButterfly~~~~

Please keep in touch and let me know how you are doing.~ Pastor MadonnaButterfly
Hi, ellas! Nice to meet you! I have read your post..and I want you to know that God cares about you, so do I. I have been in your shoes. I have faced what you are going through right now and I want you to know there is "hope". People that have not been through what you have don't understand the 'Emotional Stress" that you are going through. I understand the 'fear' of losing your life and belongings due to the 'abuse' that you are going through. No matter 'What you do' or 'How good you do it', it's not good enough. I want you to know that 'You' are Not responsible for 'How' that other person "Thinks" or "Feels" for their "Actions" are their "Own". You "Alone" are Not going to "Change" that person. The Abuser/Victor, is usually an "Insecure" person, that may have come from a "Dysfunctional Family". This person will require "Counseling" for "Anger Management" and to get treatment of learning positive ways to express frustration or anger "Without" inflicting harm to another person. If you want the 'abuse' to 'stop' and to have a 'normal' more meaningful relationship, then "You" are going to have to "Leave" away from the person and the 'situation'. There are "Abuse Shelters for Women" that will provide you safe shelter and transportation. These shelters provide "temporary" housing, which will give you a chance to become Independant and to recieve counseling. Here are some places to help you: "Family Counseling & Shelter" (734)241-0180. 14930 Laplaisance Rd. #106, Monroe. (www.fcssmc.org).
Agape House 19201 Birchridge St., Southfield, MI. (248)799-2446.
You can still work and recieve Government help to get your 'own' place, to get you on your feet. The 'only' way your relationship is going to work is if the Abuser/Victor realizes "that they" have a problem...and needs help. They will "promise" you the earth, moon and sky in attempt to get you to stay there and continue taking the 'abuse'. (You deserve better than that!) We are resurrected people who don't have to be slaves to sin any longer (Romans 6:6-7). Jesus died to rid us of sin's power as well as to rid us of sin's penalty. The gospel has the power to set us free. But if we are going to go to people and announce the good news that they can be set free from sin's power in Christ, we had better be living in the freedom the gospel purchased for us.~ Father God doesn't want us to be abused-mentally or physically. He wants for us to have the very best that life has to offer us. Pray to Father God, He will rescue You, wipe away your tears and will Protect You..if You 'Call' upon Him. We have to Trust Father God and stop relying on ourselves. We cannot make the 'right' decisions for our own lives we must have His guidance. When he leads we must follow. We must obey Him and do as He says in order for us to have blessings, prosperity and peace in our lives. We make 'mistakes', He doesn't for God is 'Perfect' and will never fail us. Ask Father God to come into your life, to 'forgive' you of your sins, to bless you, protect you and to guide you. Just remember "When we are down to nothing....God is up to something!" He already has wonderful blessings to shower upon you! The reason He is unable to give us these blessings is due to our own decisions. See God "doesn't force" us to worship Him or to follow his lead in our lives. He lets it be of our own 'choice' to do so, (freewill). We can be of the 'world' or live our lives as a "Christian" in a Godly way, but we cannot live of 'both' we must chose one or the other. I will keep you in my thoughts, heart and prayers. Please keep in touch and let me know how you are doing. God Bless You.~ Pastor MadonnaButterfly~

Another thing you can do is to Trust God, Pray and ask God to help you. God is a Provider and He will open doors that we feel are closed. Your baby needs you and loves you no matter what. Never give up...Never feel there is no hope....God will do good favors for you all you have to do is to ask Him. Find a local Church near you, one that you feel comfortable at...and talk to the Pastor...let them pray with you and guide you. Call on God..He will answer and help you all you have to do is put your Faith and Trust in Him with all that you have and you will have the money you need and all of your problems will be worked out and you will no longer have worries. Then you can give that precious baby the love, care, food and home that it needs and you and your baby can live a healthy, happy and content life! Please keep in touch with me and let me know how you are doing. I will keep you in my prayers. God Bless You. Much love, MadonnaButterfly~
Hi, momoftwoplus1! Nice to meet you. I've read your post and understand that you have quiet a bit to deal with right now. All I can do is offer you some advice and pray for you that God will help you make decisions that will be beneficial for you now and in the future. The State will provide care for your 11 year old with type 1 diabetic's insulin. They will provide him Medicaid. You have to go to your local D.H.S. (Department of Human Services) Office and apply. You can also write or call the Manufacturer of the Insulin Medication and they can help supply you with the Insulin also, just explain your situation. You can do the same with the other medications as well, they assist people who are on medication and cannot afford it. A friend or family member may be able to take you around to look for another house to rent. You can sometimes run across a very nice house that rents cheap without having to pay a deposit. You may could rent a Uhaul van for $20 to $30 a day to move with. Have a yardsale and get rid of some things you don't need and make money to help out. About your car, it sounds like you will need a "Ring job", you may can find a mechanic that does side work that will do it for a reasonable price. It usually costs around $600. for that type of work but if you find a mechanic that does side work may do it for less. You may make too much to qualify for assistance but your children should be able to get the help with medications that they need. You just have to keep trying and not give up. Relax, take a deep breath, release it slowly, then repeat until you feel relaxed. Trust God with 'all' that you are facing right now, let God have it. Allow Him to guide you. He did not bring you this far to leave you or to let you down. You work hard and you are going to school and you are trying the very best that you can. God will open the doors that appear to be closed. He will bring you through this. Trust in Him and have 'no doubt'! If you lose your home you are in now there is a reason for it....Trust in God...he may have a bigger and nicer home waiting for you at a price you can afford. I know right now you may feel that it may not happen...but I was in a similar situation 3 years ago where I needed to move immediately, car breaking down, no money, 10 dogs, and my odds were really stacked against me. I prayed hard and cried to God to help me. A couple of weeks later I was going to the grocery store and passed by an empty house that required no deposit allowed me to have all the dogs, and the rent was $125. cheaper than I was paying and the house is in much better condition than what I previously had!!! So yes, God does answer prayers! My husband was in I.C.U. I thought I had no way to move, then my friends came to help and got me moved! God will help all you have to do is completely trust Him and let Him help you to achieve your goals! I will keep you all in my prayers! God is a provider and He will help you...what He's done for me He will also do for you...for He loves you the same as me! We are His children!!!! Keep in touch and let me know how you are doing! God Bless You.....Pastor MadonnaButterfly~
I wanted to share with you that I am now a "Pastor". I'm also still caring for my Husband whom is still taking "Hep. C shots" and is extremely ill right now. Just remember that "No matter how bad things around us may seem to be....God is still in Control and He will make things better for us in our lives. We have to learn to trust in Him with all things. For He is our Provider, Shelter, Comforter, and Father." We go to Him in prayer for our needs and He will hear them and will guide us to what we need in our lives. God can and will do All things. For everything there is a purpose, we may not understand why we are going through what we are. We may not understand why bad things happen to good people. God has the intelligence of knowing and understanding these things. Sometimes we can cause our own disasters by not asking God to help us. We lean upon our own decisions which leads us into trouble. We need His guidance in everything we do. God loves to rescue us from our troubles we are faced with to show us His power so that we know it was Him that rescued us! We all love to feel wanted and needed, God is the same way...He loves for us to call upon and to need Him! I have been through things in my life that you couldn't imagine...but I can tell you that God pulled me through everything I faced. Making me a better and stronger person. What He does for one person He will do for another! God loves all of us...the same! Give Him a chance to come into your life and to change your situation, to show you His love and Mercy so that you too can know and love Him just as I do. There is nothing that He cannot handle and no problem too big for Him to solve for He is Father God Almighty that will love and help you through it all. Come to Him today and ask for His 'forgiveness' of your sins. Let Him rescue and help you through whatever you may be faced with. Know that you are 'not alone' He will never leave your side. God Bless You. Much love, Pastor MadonnaButterfly~
I wanted to stop by and let everyone know I have a lot going on in my life right now. I'm helping my Husband to get his Liver Transplant and there are so many test he has to go through and so very much to do I haven't had much time to get on here! I'm going to be on here more I'm just really trying to save Hubby's life right now. We have been waiting for this moment for 6 years and we are running out of time to get this done as his condition is becoming a lot worse everyday is a challenge for us. We are praying for a miracle and doing all that we can to try and make this happen for him! Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers and I will keep you in ours as well! I will keep you up to date on what's going on! Much love to you!~ Love, MadonnaButterfly!~
in response to dimples1313...Thank you Anita, dimples1313~! God is awesome! We just have to trust him with all things and he will guide, protect and lead us to where we need to be! The times we are living in are difficult we just have to pray and stay true to God and let him bless and protect us! My Ex Landlord and I are still friends but she plans to bulldoze the house down and not rent to anyone else. I was really afraid that we were going to die in that house and I prayed harder than I ever had in my life and I just knew God would rescue us out of that situation! And he did! Praise God! If we listen he will guide us and lead us to where we need to be then he will shower us with many blessings to let us know it was his will! God Bless You! Thank you for your concern and support!
in response to Starshine...Hi, Starshine! She didn't have the money to fix the house up. She is the Aunt of a close friend of mine so I didn't want to get her into trouble plus she's a Christian too. The house is still falling down and I have a few things that I still have to get out of there. We are trying to get it out before it falls down! We are blessed to have made it out of there when we did. Everytime we go back over there I get dizzy and sick from the mold and nervous over the snakes! I love where we live now...but we are on the Madrid Earthquake Fault Line now we feel the earthquake tremors every morning~ We are considering moving again even though we really like where we are now but we can't get our money together it's been a struggle~! I dont' guess it's really safe anywhere anymore! We just have to Trust in God and let him protect and guide us! Thank you for your love and support! God Bless You! Love, MadonnaButterfly
in response to dimples1313...Hi, Anita! See you have a "Beautiful Testimony" right here! God protected you from the storm and you kept your faith in him because you know that God is bigger than the storms that were around you! You went to him in prayer and trusted him without fear because you knew he would protect you and bring you through this! Amen! God Bless You Anita! You are doing so good I know that God is so very proud of you! I'm proud of you too! Keep up the great work! Keep trusting and loving him it will get better and better for you! Much love and God Bless You My Friend and Sister in Christ!~
in response to dimples1313...Hi, Anita! To God be the Glory! I am so happy for you that you have turned to God and trust him to work in your life! He is your friend and you can talk to him about anything and everything and when you are not sure about something he will help you to understand. When you are afraid just pray and he will be there to wrap his arms around you and to bring you comfort! He loves us more than we could love ourself! You are very precious and important to him and he loves you very much! Keep your faith in him no matter what happens around you and he will protect you and guide you through it! God Bless You and Your Journey with Him!
in response to Starshine...Hi, Starshine! I'm sorry about your leg ulcer I will be praying for God's healing for you. Bless your heart. I've never heard of that before. I pray for you my friend. May God Bless You Always.
in response to Starshine...Awww that is so sweet Starshine! Wow that's really amazing! Especially for a Cat they do what they want to do and pretty much are determined to do their own thing! Wow! That is pretty incredible! You and Sunny had that type of bond! What a gift! Hugs to you! Will talk to you later today! It's 2:36 am here! I'm headed to bed! Sweet dreams my friend and will talk to you again soon!~
Hi, dorene60! What state are you in? There is no need in you going to bed hungry, my friend. There are local soup kitchens that would feed you. There are local churches that will help with food also. Mostly canned goods that don't require cooking. As far as your rent, if your rent is $600. a month then you may want to find a cheaper place to live by downsizing. There are places that will help you where you will not have to be on the street. There are "options" for you. You are never 'alone' Jesus is with you and watching over you. All you have to do is pray and ask for his guidance and help he will open doors that are closed and will make a way for you, just have faith and trust in him for with him all things are possible. You do not need to fear for he is with you and will work things out. Maybe he has something better waiting for you. I will be praying for you and I ask that you also pray to Jesus and ask him to help you too. God hears our prayers and will answer when the time is right. Stay strong in your faith and he will make a way when we feel we don't have one! God Bless You!
in response to Starshine...You did give him enough love to last him a lifetime! Our pets are sent to us by God at special times in our lives almost like a gift to us from him! God really has a sense of humor too, look at the Giraffes! LOL! God loves his creation of animals too! They are really special and touch our lives in a precious way! God Bless you and have a wonderful night!~
in response to dimples1313...God will embrace you and hold you throughout the night my friend. There is no need to fear for he is with you and will not leave your side no matter what. I will pray for you and will also put you on the prayer chain, but I also ask that you communicate by prayer with God also. God wants you to want and need him. He wants to flex his muscle like any man does and show you his power and what he can do...by rescuing you! He loves us to need him and he loves to show us what he is capable of doing! This is how we get our Testimony! We are able to tell of his works that we see and it helps us get closer to him and to know that we can trust him with everything! Then we don't worry we know that he is able and will pull us through! God Bless You My Friend!~
in response to dimples1313...Hi, Anita! Don't be sad....'Rejoice'!!!!! And be happy knowing that God loves you that much that he is going to help you! We can't give up on God because he didn't give up on us! All is going to be well you watch and see! Hugs to you my friend! God Bless You!~
That was beautiful Starshine what you wrote about Sunny that was very heartfelt and touching. You gave Sunny-friendship, a loving home, attention and made him feel that he belonged when everyone else had rejected him. Most importantly you just let him be himself! What a gift that is! You are a wonderful person to show him that love and I know he was happy too! Hugs to you Starshine! God Bless You!~
Do NOT post you Email address, Phone number or STREET address!!!!! (This is not a Safe act for you to do 'anywhere' on the internet). Hi, Crystal! Lynne can receive help by: (www.ssa.gov/disability) Where she can apply for S.S.I. Check and Insurance. These places offer support and help with memory loss: (http://www.highbeam.com/doc/1P2-9123349.html) This is a Memory Loss Support Group that meets every Tuesday.
All you have to do is click on the above links and they will take you to the support groups webpage! If you need futher assistance just let me know! Thank you and God Bless You~~
I read your situation and want to help you. I need to know what state you are in and what state your Fiance is in so that I will be able to futher assist you with some help with Attorney's, and a Travel Ticket for her to come home. I need to know what you "Plea Bargained" for, because I know when you Plea Bargain it's to get a lighter sentence for what was original charges that were applied first. My husband is a Marine Veteran and I do understand how you feel. I will help you in anyway possible with this. I ask you to Pray and let God also help you. No prayer goes unanswered and God can open closed doors and when you feel there is no way, just know that God can do "All things" we just have to trust in him and know that he hears us and he will answer and will help us if we just give him a chance. You may have served our country and for that we thank you very much, but look what Jesus did for you he laid his life down for you to have freedom. Why hurt Jesus? He has done you no wrong. He loves you very much and he will help you if you just turn everything over to him and give him a chance to help you. For nothing is impossible for him to do. Just have complete faith and trust in him with no doubt and watch him work for you. We shouldn't tempt or threaten or challenge him or he will turn his back. We need to open our heart to him and beg for his mercy upon us and he will help us out of our situation and will make things better.
And I want you to know that I will also be trying to find information that may help you too. Just don't give up, everything is going to be alright. God will work this out give him a chance. Please. God Bless You.~
