Never, ever forget to count your blessings man. Never fail to plan. And never, never ever forget to be thankful for TODAY.
My SIL, she has been fighting a valiant battle with a neuro-degenerative disease, the docs are waiting for final test results before giving definitive diagnosis but its either MS, Lupus or mad cow disease. This is a woman who was vibrantly alive and loving her life up to a few months ago. Today, she does not recognize family, does not remember who she is, where she is, what year it is, she is in a top hospital in US tied down with restraints to keep her from hurting herself, she cannot walk, cannot express herself except to spew out the most shocking words. This degeneration has happened so fast and she is so young that its a very shocking thing and so very hard to come to terms with.
Something that we should all remember is to thank our very lucky stars, thank God/Allah every day for who we are and what we have. It could all be gone in an instant. These little little problems that we all post about are just that…little little problems. When it comes down to it, its family that cares about you and for you, family that would do anything to make things easier for you.
Just blowing steam here, would appreciate prayers and good wishes for my sil.
on another note why do majority lazy minded camoflouged islamic idealism guys have issues with planing? any planing , any hard work for future financial security is considered duniya dari and sitting on your arse drinking bottle and watching vid is taqwa? oh what a bleeding nuisance!
i needed to vent.
I am sorry to hear that Mama - you are right, we really should be grateful for everything that Allah has given us and not take for granted. You dont know whats round the corner.
Your sil is in my prayers - hope she gets better soon inshallah.
Keep on praying for ur SIL. Inshallah she'll b fine soon. recite surah-e-fateha 40 times and blow on water and make ur SIL drink it. it will Inshallah give her shifa
