Day ten

Updated: Dec 23, 2025

I woke up at 2:30am and didn’t get back to sleep. Last night the pain was very bad. I was doubled up with pain.

I have decided not to pray for healing. I’m just asking God to do what He wants with me. If it’s time to leave then so be it. If I am to stay then I’ll put up with the pain. I was reminded of David Watson - vicar of St. Michael le Belfrey in York. He was well known back in the 1980s. When he was diagnosed with cancer he had to adjust his thinking from being willing to go but wanting to stay, to being willing to stay, but wanting to go.

I’m not at stage, obviously, but 13 months of abdominal pain does get you thinking.
