I couldn't talk for months after. But it's been a year or year and a half since my last radiation treatment. So I am able to talk. But I also have my upper tip lip, on the right, glued to my gums. And starting with my front teeth all the way back have been removed. Also part of the surgery required the top of my mouth to be removed and rebuilt, so now the inside of my mouth is taller than before. As well as part of my face, under the skin had to be removed and rebuilt then grafted with skin from my leg. Hence the difficulty talking still.

I will check out the links. Thanks.

(For anyone meeting Sub for the first time, he used to be here under another name, and I think he's been here just as long as I have -- 2009 -- possibly even longer. I just mention this to explain why some of us seem to know quite a bit about each other.)

I remember a while back, you made a post that didn't seem to be anything out of the ordinary to the regulars here, but for some reason, a new member flippantly brushes off your post like, "This is what you get from an unbeliever."

And it was like, "You don't know anything about him -- why are you so quick to judge him so harshly?" Someone pointed out that this person didn't know anything about your time serving in youth ministry, which was something you'd told us about back in the day. But they sure were quick to brand you as a heathen when you were just making observations about what you were going through -- which is something we all do. (Not surprisingly, that user was making harsh, dismissive comments towards others as well -- and wasn't here for very long before they got banned.)

I surely don't know everything about everyone here and I can't keep up with everyone's lives, but your story has always stuck out. There have actually been times when I've read your posts and thought, "If I even went through half of what he's gone through -- in a year! -- would I be able to hold it together? Would I still be holding onto faith?"

I know we haven't always agreed on everything in our posts, but who does? Not always seeing eye to eye is part of being inviduals in a family.

I'm just very glad you haven't given up on this forum, Sub, no matter what the ups and down. 🌹🙏❤️

I'll also very very happy if this thread helps connect you and others with yet more Christian family members to help carry their burdens and keep them in prayer. 💐

wow, brother, what a lot to bear. :cry:

you remind me of David in Psalm 40 where he said he waited patiently for the Lord... in Hebrew it's more like, waiting, I waited. so much waiting.

may our Lord incline His ear to you and hear your cry. and ours, because your CC family loves you and is praying for you. ♥

"waiting, I waited. so much waiting", I like that. And it's way more fitting than you realize.
Appreciate the words.

Actually I've been here since 2011. So you're still my senior haha.

I don't remember that specific incident because that happened multiple times to me. Even with some who have been here a while.

Thanks again, Seoul, for the kind words.

Thanks to all who replied so far. I'm not always an expressive person but it means more than it comes across (emoji responses included).

Also sorry for derailing the thread. I only expected one or two responses back and it would be over. Hopefully others continue sharing their days here.
