MoreThis is a reply to # 452,001Addictions, like fungus, tend to die off when exposed to light. They require darkness to survive. You did exactly what the enema :-) didn't want you to do. You confessed your probable addiction in public.
Lord be with Dot and her family as she leans more heavily on you for suport in seperating herself from the drugs that were supposed to make her more comfortable. The bondage of drug addiction is broken in Jesus' Name and Father place a higher hedge of angelic protection around them as the whole family deals with this. Give Dot and fam the Wisdom that only You can give and surround them with your Peace that surpases all understanding.
In Jesus' Name, Amen.
Love you Dot.

Hi Dot!
One of my closest friends and christian mentor has been struggling with this same thing. We didn't know this until a recent encounter with her in the hospital when the doctors tried to 'drug' her for an angiogram and the even the maximum amount recommended to give her was not dulling the pain.
This is a very real thing that sneaks up on you. God can remove it in a heartbeat.
Our church found out about a program called "Celebrate Recovery"... and we are starting one up. Anyone with any type of addiction can to through this free program and they are all over the place. It is a support group. People with any form of addiction or codependency can come, join a group and have go through a program much like AA only its based on the Beattitudes.
I realize your not close to our church at all...but they are located in many different areas. I think you can go to the below link even and find out locations.
Does this sound good, a support group...or is it too farfeteched of a thought? Love, Libby

This is a reply to # 452,024Thanks!I'll check it out.Many years ago I had a drinking problem and the hospitals I went to and even AA never helped me.I hated the fowel language the pp used it I'm sure it couldn't help because it was too worldly.God has to deliver me but the pain has to go.The MRI went badly Monday {I just couldn't stand it}so I have to resedule and tomorow I have to do the purging and have the colonostopy Friday morning and see what their going to do about the surgery to remove part of my colon.I still have to get the results from pathology checking for Lupus and stuff.God's more than able to take care of all this but right now it's so frustrating waiting and not knowing anything.County hospitals don't get in a hurry.The constant nausea I live with,from the Diverticular desiese and it's a sympton of the other stuff is really bad.Keep praying please.I sure don't want colon surgery but it seems they have already made their minds up.God bless ya'll,Love you brothers and sisters,Dot.

This is a reply to # 452,023Sounds like a good one Libby. I went through a program about a year ago at www.settingcaptivesfree.com and it really helped me to get free. They have different programs dealing with different addictions. You might want to take a gander at it Dot. They're very good.
Still praying for you sis.

This is a reply to # 452,001Dot,
I had a true miracle...I had a problem with alcohol for many years, a very serious problem. I was in and out of treatment centers for years and went to AA for many years. I just couldn't seem to overcome my addiction. One day I looked toward the sky and said just the simplest little prayer, (actually I didn't consider it a prayer at the time)...I said, "God, please remove the desire to drink from me, you know I don't mean it but do it anyhow."
That was fifteen years ago and I haven't had a drink since nor have I been tempted. It is awesome, it is totally incredible. I fully expected to die drunk. I couldn't stay drunk and I couldn't stay sober. I HAD A TRUE MIRACLE...it can happen for you as well.
Best of luck and NEVER give up.
