Woman down...

We have a woman down…
The sewing has stopped…… Jessie has not been sewing for the last 10 days.
She complained of pain in her right shoulder. So I took her to the medical aid unit. They took an x-ray and sent her home. Nothing was broken. That’s good. They gave her meds for the pain. The next thing we noticed was the entire area turned black and blue and her muscle looked like Popeye’s. This is a concern since she is on blood thinners…oh no is it a blood clot…  So now we go to the primary care doctor, now she tells us to see an orthopedic doctor she thinks it is a torn bicep. Jessie was very upset with this news…we still don’t know how this happened and we don’t know what to expect. I reassured her at least it wasn’t cancer, or a blood clot. It seems these were the things we have been going through most recently Breast cancer surgeries and blood clots….. I told her you have to have something unique you are one of a kind…









Of course this happens after she has committed to pioneering for 2 months straight. This means she is devoting 50 hours to talking to people about the Jehovah God and the bible in September and 30 hours for the month of October. Much of her time was spent writing letters to people she knows and to breast cancer survivors. These notes she puts with the bags she gives to survivors this is one way  she shares some comfort from the  bible.
Since this injury is to her right side she is not writing much…. But she is still talking.
And for now the sewing is being done by other volunteers…..
I will be putting up a help wanted sign at Booths Corner. Hopefully we will get some much needed help.

Woman down …..We have a woman down……
