Please listen, I cannot see any benefit in making such connections concerning your husbands health. Such things are in God's hands, and he remained in control even while your were mistreated. Please give it all to the Lord, and rest in his ability to replace the bitter cup with sweet. I fear you are still allowing effects to continue even though you removed yourself from the source of your anxiety.
I will pray for you.

Thanks. I know that I have to let it go. But I also have to face it all and work through some feelings. I can't get over 19 UPC years (the totality of my adult life) in 2. I don't know if there is any validity to those connections. I just know that it might be true and then it might not. I don't think there is wrong in mentioning it. Nothing can be proven one way or another anyway but people do try and link cause and effect and that is only normal and should be done to some extent. At any rate, it would be easier to assume that it was NOT that if there wasn't such stress for so long. But I do appreciate your prayers and the conversation anyway. I am going to go take a bath with my Amish fiction book. (Plain and Fancy by Wanda Brunstetter)  Talk to you later.
