New nurse for my IVIg infusions

I received a message today from Crescent Health Care the company who handles my IVIg infusions. They handle everything from getting the "Gammaguard Liquid" to sending the product to me at home and sending the nurse to give me the infusion treatment. I get the infusions every 14 days. Well, I moved and I requested my regular nurse. She has been my nurse since January and I like her alot. And she is a christian which is the best part because she and I can talk openly about our faith and neither one of us get in trouble for sharing our faith with each other in this "politically correct" society we live in. Well, they said I cannot keep my good friend nurse Barbara. They said my new address is just to far for her to be allowed to travel. It would had been a 70 mile ride one way (but she told me if I were to request that I keep my same nurse they would let it happen but sadly she was wrong). I will have to get to know a new nurse. :(

Well, there is a "reason for everything" I trust God has a good one, He always does!

News about new home

It's a beautiful day in SoCal (Southern California). I have a good reason to be very happy today in spite of my health issues. I got plenty of sleep last night which is rare for me considering my health problems. But today I feel good which is also rare for me. I have been searching for another place to live that is cheaper then where I live now. I was only looking for something else to rent knowing there was no way I would be able to buy anything on disability.

But, God is good. He opened a door that I thought I would never see. Home ownership, especially in these times of economic "disability". During one of my searches a couple of weeks ago I ran into a miracle, a used mobile home in a desert oasis called "Desert Hot Springs, Calif. About an hours drive from where I live now. The owner was the son of a woman who died four months ago and he just wanted to "unload" it and get some closure from losing his mother. He only wanted $10,000 dollars for it! On top of that he just had a new air conditioning unit put in less than two years ago that cost him nearly $6,000.00 dollars! To make a long story short I ask God to open the door if it was His will, and the door opened "Literally"! Yesterday I met the seller and finalized the deal. I'm now a proud owner of my own home! WOW!

This is something that would have never happened if it were not for a wonderful God who continues to look after me day after day.

I took pictures yesterday and I will post them as soon as I can.

No more rent payments! No more landlords! Wow, I'm so excited! And so blessed!

Have a wonderful day!
