There is a line from one of my favorite songs by a Christian singer called Mandisa, and the song is called " Stronger". The line of the song is " when the waves are taking you under, hold on just a little bit longer, he( God) knows that this is gonna make you stronger".

As someone well acquainted with chronic pain, my heart goes out to you, Cătălina. I've had strange neuropathic pains for many years now, though they are not as severe as what you describe. And I take your words to heart: I have been learning for many years to be grateful for what I have, even my disabilities (legal blindness, autism, dysautonomia, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, etc.), because they have directly impacted the person I have become over the years. And I am grateful for that because I don't think I would have become as deep, nor as spiritual, nor as kind, nor as compassionate without them and without the many wonderful people I have known over the years who have loved me and helped me learn to accept my life. I think your sister and parents are wonderful! They remind me of my best friends and my parents. Very supportive and loving. You are indeed fortunate to have such a supportive family. I am happy to hear you are going to write a book about your experiences. From time to time over the years, I have considered doing that myself, but I am glad that I haven't yet, since I think I have learnt more over the past year-and-a-half in my spiritual journey of self-acceptance than I had in the previous 10 combined. I wish you every success in your healing process and may the pain subside soon, so that you have more energy to do other things. :) (smilie)

Hello dear Catalina, thank you for accepting my friendship request! :) I would like to tell you that last night I met you through your KZitem videos. I was looking for some crochet tutorials and even though I knew how to crochet the daisy flower, your beautiful daisies got my attention! Nothing happens by accident! I clicked on your awesome flowers to learn how you made them look amazing! So, I discovered your secret: it is the love you generously share with us in each stitch and word! Then, I looked to the right of my screen for your tutorials and I learned about your tribulation. But do not panic Catalina, there is hope, always there is hope!!! It is a privilege to know you and learn from you! You are brave to share your feelings, you are inspiring me in many ways! God bless you! You are in my thoughts and prayers! Thanks a lot for giving so much to us! Sending you and your family a big hug from Toronto, Canada! I have a pic with daisies for you with this message, but unfortunately I could not upload it. Check your Facebook wall with Ana Maria. All of you are amazing! "The greatness of a person is not measured by what you have but what you give"

I believe He wants to be glorified in Catalina's life and He can be. I'm praying for y'all. I also pray she can find something that can take her mind off of the pain and something that is enjoyable as a past time. May God bless you for sticking by her through this dark time in her life. 🙏💐♥

Catalina, you are an incredible inspiration and one of MY heroes!! I was suggested your channel by youtube, based on crocheting. I always look at the channel's videos before I subscribe. So, I began watching your health update videos. I had a very bad day today, my life kind of fell apart. I was in a horribly sad mood all day. Then came you. This beautiful woman who thinks about others despite the huge pile of things you deal with. Suddenly, my life was blessed by your spirit to not only recover, but survive with style. You are amazing. You have shown me that life isn't about the bad days, but about the good. About the joys found in the bad. You inspire me to stop feeling so moody and to celebrate the life I do have. Your pajamas are adorable, your sister is as gorgeous as you are, and you both carry a spark inside that lights up the world. Write that book, do whatever you want. I will be here to cheer you on! Thank you, for reminding me that heroes are everyday people.

The pride and love in your sisters eyes is a testament to your bravery and heart, Catalina. You both are two very beautiful people inside and out. One never thinks so when in the midst of anger/fear/mourning, but it's true. Your courage to fight this head-on and stand before the world as an inspiration and beacon for those in their own personal crisis should be your armor. I, myself have been crippled since I was young, and though it by no means compares to what you are going through, one thing I can say is that sometimes courage needs momentum. There are breakdowns, but it's how you end those breakdowns that matters. Each time you pick yourself up, you get another piece of armor (courage). I will remember you and your dear family in my prayers everyday and send my love dearly. -Tay

Hi Catalina, I hope this message finds u in better spirits. My heart goes out to you. I will keep you in my prayers. May I suggest looking into essential oil therapy, especially the Rain Drop technique. It is a very natural and therapeutic way of healing the body. I think it would be a good idea to v log more just to get that release. I think it is also a good idea to keep trying with your crochet and challenge yourself to crochet from memory. It will help p to exercise your brain and actually give your brain something else to do. You have awesome support in your life. I pray for your healing. Be blessed. Ciao.

Catalina, I am so happy you posted a video again, I think about you daily and check on you as often as I can. I am just so sorry for the pain you are going through but I have to tell you , I just feel you are going to come through ALL of this. God works in just such strange ways that we don't understand, it took a bad stroke to bring you together with your family. Think of all that is positive right now, your hearing is returning, you look wonderful and it sounds like your brain is working so hard to rejuvenate. It takes time and a lot of healing, so please don't give up, what a wonderful sister you have by your side. Your English is super spectacular. I think you speak better than most Americans do these days! I was always amazed when you did your crochet videos at how well you spoke, so articulate. You will make it. You have so many fans out there that love you and I just know you will be back at crocheting once again. Love you girl!! Hanna from New Orleans, Louisiana

Catalina, I just discovered your channel at the beginning of this year. My grandmother was teaching me to crochet when she passed away, so I follow you to pick up where she left off. Your videos are so easy to follow. Today, I cried for you. My husband had a stroke a few years ago, 4 months after we got married. It is a hard fight. I'm not going to pretend to understand what you or your family are going through right now, because I don't. But I do know you are scared and tired, but please don't give in. A bad day is a bad day. Look for the wonderful things and hold on to them tight. My husband says that since his stroke he can feel everything. It took a long time for him to get used to that heightened awareness of the electricity in his brain. I hope that this is the last stroke for you. Oh, and it is ok to feel overwhelmed and scared. You are going through something extremely hard and your feelings are valid.

Sometimes we just need to be still , listen & know that he is God and we can't do it all by ourselves ! In our hopelessness He's there, in our helplessness He's still there and he does Hear every Prayer that's going up to Heaven for you my Sister. So Thank him, because you are still Blessed & you are a Blessing to others, your Family, your Sweetheart Sister and even to people you have never met in person! I can say for myself that you are Truly a Blessing to me! You are a STRONG AND BRAVE YOUNG LADY!

He may have great things for you that would only happen through this situation. Maybe the suggestion you have for people to get their blood checked will save a life. Recognize the huge blessing you have in your family. It's so clear that your sister loves you so much. Even in this awful situation you have much to be thankful for.

Please Google attorneys that are litigating against the medication your sister was on. It causes strokes. The last year a few were taken off the market due to this. I have mentioned it before. I am continuing to check in and pray for you, but it is a good idea to get an attorney since the suffering and what she is experiencing could very likely be caused from what she was taking. You did mention when this first happened that she was on these that is why I am urging you to contact an attorney. God bless you. May He give you HIs supernatural peace. Praying for complete healing for you.
