Life can be a daunting process sometimes what you think is your best possession turns out not being yours to begin with #lifesamess #stillfighting #hurtslikehell #savage https://www.instagram.com/p/CbI81jQszcn/?utm_medium=tumblr

The journey continues........ It has been said that it takes 60 days to form a habit and 90 days to break one. Today is day #45 WITHOUT a cigarette 🚬. #stillfighting 💪🏾 https://www.instagram.com/p/CafSAzxJZt9/?utm_medium=tumblr

August 16, 1999 (Monday) March 9, 2009 (Monday) October 16, 2013 (Wednesday) And now January 12, 2022 (Wednesday) Mondays and Wednesdays are two days of the week I always want to be quick and easy days.........but so far, no 🎲. I am home now, but unfortunately suffered stroke #4 earlier this week. I want to thank everyone for the calls, texts, wishes and prayers sent to me. Can never have enough prayer. While I try to keep my personal situations private, I understand that my "tests" have to become my testimony. I had just recently posted about lowering my A1c numbers from 14.4 to 5.5........and now this 🤦🏾‍♂️. BUT, I remember this........pain is a temporary thing that life's hardships sometimes bring. Trust in GOD and PERSEVERE, and the end of your pain will soon be near. In my life, I have had to deal with the Crohn's Disease, kidney issues, diabetes, arthritis, PTSD, and strokes. But I certainly don't look or act like what I've been through. That that "something" about how the Most High works. Now, I'm taking tangible suggestions on how to fight this 33 year battle with these Newports 🚬🚭. If you're reading this and going through something, I am praying for you. The Most High will not give you more than you can handle, and often gives the harder tests to the stronger Soldiers. If you've read this far, just put the praying hands emoji (🤲🏾 or 🙏🏾) in the comments should you feel so inclined. I appreciate and love y'all. #DeanGeronimohasspoken #stillfighting #toostubborntogiveup #fromtesttotestimomy https://www.instagram.com/p/CYvzW8crFUQ/?utm_medium=tumblr

Today, October 7, is #TrigeminalNeuralgia awareness day. We are painting the day teal for awareness to this painful disease that not many know about. My sister LaQuisha Dionne suffers from this disease and if you don't know about, inform yourself today! For months, we watched her suffer and couldn’t help. I prayed for God to let me share the pain because I knew it was too much for her yet she endured. This disease causes shocks through your face that leaves you debilitated (hence its name The Suicide Disease). Numerous ER and doctor visits with no help. Suggestions of surgery that would leave her face paralyzed. Days of her not being able to eat ANYTHING, days of drinking NOTHING, not being able to go outside because the wind could cause a shock, couldn’t rub her lip cause that set it off, couldn’t comb her hair because that set it off. She was taking a mixture of pain medicine that could kill an average person but it didn’t even put her to sleep. She had to keep a journal of her medicine out of fear of overdosing but it wouldn’t even scratch the surface. Y’all just don't understand! Then we found a doctor by the name of Robert Mericle in Nashville who performed a brain surgery that should have lasted 4 hours but it went 6-8 yet in ICU, she woke up with no shocks! The next morning she was up walking. She isn’t healed because there’s no cure but she’s restored. She’s singing again, she’s smiling again, she’s living again ... She’s my SHERO and I’m her Pink Power Ranger, fighting for her and because she has a band of believers backing her, she’s STILL FIGHTING! If a family member or friend is fighting with TN, do NOT discount their suffering because they are. There are no outward signs but there’s inward suffering. If you don't know TN, recently diagnosed with TN, have a family member or friend with TN ... get our book #StillFighting (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07MJHF6NL) to learn more about it or the Be a Fighter journal (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1795056703/). #teal #tnsupporter #TeamLaquisha #trigeminalneuralgiaawareness #Suicidedisease #TNWarrior #TNSufferer #October7 #trigeminalneuralgiaawarenessday #trigeminalneuralgiawarrior https://www.instagram.com/p/CUu4waUl41D/?utm_medium=tumblr

Now I just gotta figure out how to get back up and ontop again. Even if I need a hand to do it.
