I have a right to be happy because…
I survived a difficult pregnancy that almost took me and my daughter out of here. Lying on the table slowly floating away....I barely whispered Dr. Tucker's name...I feel like I am floating away...In rushes the ER team and one little shot...I was back...I was alert...I made it!
I was injured at work during my 5th month of pregnancy
someone moved my chair and put a broken chair in it's place...I fell to the floor! Severe separation of pubic symphysis bone (pelvic) and my placenta separated. Shortly after this....
The Lord told me to end my relationship with my daughter's father or go to hell, (he was married, I ended my relationship) Shortly after this, Worker's Comp denied my claim and told me that I was home because of my pregnancy not the inuries that I sustained and my boss terminated me the same day.
My accident was on October of 98 and my last employment check was August of "99". From that time clear up to October 13, 2003 besides child support, I had no income...but I was able to keep my son in one of Philly's top private schools...and maintain my rent..oh I have a right to be happy because I still had more than a lot of people. God supplied all of our needs. Thank You Lord!
Listen closely to what I am saying because somebody is going through something right now and you may not have what you what but you have what you need... I went from living large to living small and I lost everything I had except my mind...I have a right to be happy and so do you...Just trust God because He makes a way out of no way!
In excruciating pain, I endured 2 1/2 almost 3 years of painful physical therapy and I am walking normal again.
After appealing my case 5 times, the judge dismissed it and threw it...oh I was mad sistah..but that's alright, I was obedient and God, He got my back!!!
I have a right to be happy because everything that was stolen from me..the years that I couldn't play with my children, outside of the home, take trips like we used to, the family reunions and funerals that I missed..my salary increase and bonus, the fellowship at church, my friends, it's all going to be restored unto me!
And most of all...I have a right to be happy because of the lessons that I have learned during that difficult time in my life! The devil tried to kill me...he tried to break me...but he couldn't...God had other plans for me!!!
I have a right to be happy because I am a survivor, I survived the worst of times and God took my mess and turned it into a message...come on bless the wonderful name of Jesus!
Eloquently Speaking,
Stacey Lunsford
