It was another down day. Even despite his freedom in being able to drive and the couple of hours he was able to work. Mark's really struggling. I only ask that you keep praying for us. And I say "keep" because I know you haven't stopped. And we are so very grateful for your prayers. He is a testament that prayer works miracles.
Blessing of the Day: prayer
Hi Scarlet. I am sorry I haven't commented more on your blog but my husband and I do follow Mark's story here. My husband, Wade, has been thrilled to have Mark back a work a little. We are really rooting for him.
ReplyDeleteI also thought I'd mention one other little tidbit. I was in a bad car wreck recently and got a bad concussion and have had a hard time thinking and speaking at times. Of course, It hasn't been as severe as Mark's injury, but frustrating none the less. After a lot of reading and research on brain injuries, I read about chia seeds. Sounds weird, but they are an amazing super food with tons of healing properties, especially for the brain. They have like 9 times the omega 3 as salmon- and I read how vital this is for brain repair. They also give lots of energy. I have been using them (in smoothies) and can testify a huge improvement in my own ailments.
They sell them at the health food stores.You mix them with water(1/3 cup chia seeds to 2 cups of water-shake and stir), and they make sortof a gel (completely tasteless), then put them in the refrigerator. Then you just mix about 3 tablesppons of that mixture into any food you like, but I think the texture is completely unnoticable in a drink or smoothie.
I don't know if that is of interest to you or not, but I did discover the benefits of these chia seeds while reading about brian injury because of their great benefits. I hope this helps. ?? If you have any questions, you can email me at knapptime50@aol.com
Good luck with his continued recovery. We really are glad that you keep us all updated. :)
