So Kat,

I find myself distressed at your distress, proud of your positive response, yet overall rather bewildered...😮

"... After having a very horrible extended illness this past year... "

Reading this, I went into shock—then after chastising myself for having been totally ignorant of such unhappy news, I riffed off of "this past year," and went back over your 2022 looking for further clues—then your 2021, still searching... Nothing.

As someone who loves you but has been terribly, inconsistently unfaithful as a reader, I was sure I must have shamefully missed a corresponding "horrible extended" gap in your blogging... Nope.

Surely, then, I had to have missed some clearly relevant series of articles about said malady?... Nope.

Well then; there had to be reports of colds, viruses, sickness, etc.—finally, one or two brief mentions in a post here and there... Along with very heart-warming accolades for an obviously marvelously supportive hubs and great kids who care for you when you're down and take up all the homestead chore slack... PTL for those dudes! I'm impressed and pleased to know that they are on the job!🙏👍

But "very horrible extended illness this past year"? Why can't I find the full report of that? May I please have chapter and verse? (If it's in there somewhere, again; forgive me, friend, for failing to read you more thoroughly and more often)...

I know you are a homesteader/farmer/Mighty Amazon Woman of the Northern Wastes... but, my goodness, Girl! How can you be such a trooper as to, in so few words barely mention in passing a "very horrible extended illness"?

The closest thing I've found to a clue is this... is this what ails you?

My dear friend, I'm not asking as some nosy busybody stranger... It's just that—because I'm in tune with assorted and sundry amazing "alternative health" sorts of remedies—I long for the opportunity to enlighten someone I care about with information surrounding one or two incredible remedies I've seen do wonders. My hope is that they may possibly also benefit you.

Please forgive me if I've overstepped here, and carry on at least knowing of my concern and prayers for you.🙏❤️
