First off this will be a long post with many grammar and punctuation errors. Please forgive me for that as I’m not college educated. So grammar police please try and understand.

This story goes back 25 years or more. My ex wife and mother of our only child a daughter was once a very successful broker in the financial system in the Midwest region at a time when men dominated the field her making a substantial salary, ten times that of mine in a blue collar union job at our home in California. We have owned and lived in some beautiful homes from Northern Virginia to California. We were living the American dream traveling abroad visits to Disneyworld staying at the nicest resorts. All the while she tried to portray me to her colleagues as someone who had substantial wealth in the wine industry because we live in a very prominent northern ca region. I should have seen the writing on the wall at this point but I chose to ignore it. At this point in time we had a young daughter and my only goal was to help foster her into the great women she is today.

Then I started noticing changes in my wife’s behavior small at first then became more noticeable. She was addicted to opiates, whatever or however she could get her hands on them from doctor shopping to whatever other means of cheating the system to get more drugs. At this point I had had enough and as much as I didn’t want to we went through divorce proceedings. That was close to 25 years ago. I have always kept in communication with her and have allowed her to live with me when she fell into dire straits. She has been to numerous rehab facilities from private upscale in Napa Valley to the worst of the worst in San Francisco. Nothing has changed.

My daughter who now has given me two precious granddaughters has not spoken to her since they were born. And wants nothing to do with her. This breaks my heart.

The ex wife has fallen into the hands of social services through outreach from being in homeless centers. Social services is a joke their personal seems to change every month and a new physiologist assigned. Then the cycle continues new physiological drugs administered. It’s a cycle that never stops. Due to HIPPA rules myself or my daughter can give no input through the health system to give any input on her past. The system is truly broken.

So as of today her new physiologist has her on Suboxone and she is once again living at my home. So am I too naive to believe somehow I can break this cycle should I just cut all ties and wait for the coroner to call with the bad news. I’ve tried to hold on thinking I can bring her back to once again have a relationship with my daughter.

Am I asking too much? Should I just let go? Thanks for any prayers or advice.

Praise God!

From Gateway Pundit:

After months of battling a serious heart condition, we are thrilled to report that Jim’s heart surgery this morning was a complete success!

For the past several years, Jim has quietly suffered from a severe heart issue caused by an infection he contracted while hospitalized following knee surgery nearly 15 years ago. The infection ravaged his heart and even caused him to lose vision in one eye. Despite the pain and fatigue, Jim rarely spoke about it. He is a humble man who never seeks attention or sympathy.

Even when he wasn’t feeling well, Jim almost always said “yes” to speaking engagements or events because of his deep love for America and his unwavering determination to fight for her. As a close personal friend, I can tell you that Jim has valiantly stood for the truth when so many others were afraid to publish it.

Because of that commitment, he has endured relentless attacks on The Gateway Pundit for the past six years — including coordinated lawfare from the left that never seems to end. Yet Jim never complains.

In fact, his humble nature almost cost him his life this time. He was reluctant to return to the hospital and was struggling with even the simplest daily tasks. It took the encouragement of close friends and loved ones to finally convince him to seek treatment. Doctors determined he needed a valve replacement — a procedure that was anything but routine for him. But thanks to the extraordinary skill of his cardiology team and the millions of prayers from Gateway Pundit readers and War Room followers, the surgery was a success.

We hope Jim’s story encourages anyone experiencing symptoms of heart trouble to stop delaying and seek the care they need.

Thank you again to everyone who prayed for Jim, his doctors, and the entire medical team. Please continue to pray for him as he begins his recovery. We are praying for a smooth, complication-free healing process so he can return to the work he loves most — fighting for America by delivering the truth to millions of readers on The Gateway Pundit — as soon as possible.

God bless Jim Hoft, and thank you all for standing with him.

So my wife has been trying to get help with soc. sec. and medicare. She has tried multiple times to log into her online accounts . For some reason the "system" recognizes all of her info, takes her through all sorts of steps and rig-a-marol , and at the last step it says that it doesn't recognize the info that she just gave them and that they have been using all along!! We have tried talking to soc sec on line, on the phone, and apparently no one can help us. We even tried to set up an appointment to see someone in person, at our closest office. Good luck with that. They make you go through all sorts of questions and then determine that you do not need an appointment ! We "walked in " to the office this morning and sat for hours waiting to be helped. Meanwhile most of the folks who were helped were obviously illegal's or deadbeats. We could not get anyone to help us ! I am completely disgusted , and have lost all hope for America. We have worked hard our whole lives. Followed "the rules" And thought that we would be able to get help in our old age. What a fucked up system we live in. I thought the DMV was bad ! I wish I knew who to talk to to get help with this. Apparently every non American has someone advocating for them, helping them maneuver through this bureaucracy. But us multi generational white folks can suck it. Who advocates for us? ** UPDATE** : THANK GOD ! After waiting , online, for a video call from an ID Me rep, For 3.5 hours !, They fixed what ever the problem was and my wife was able to log in to Soc Sec and do her thing. I think we have lost a year of our lives from the stress. Thank you all for you prayers and advise !!

As a side note…. There seems to be coincidences between counties refusing data centers, or being told they’re getting ones, are on fire now…. Brantley, Clinch, Nassau, Appling.

Anyways people are losing their homes and everything, no lives lost that I know of yet; a firefighter has been hurt but will be ok.

Scary times we live in. I woke to the smell of smoke this morning….

I'm 69 years old. My VA disability rating I was awarded in 2004 is 100% Permanently & Totally disabled. I don't know if I can survive another round of being tortured, Please pray for me and all Veterans that we all get our holistic care reinstated.

God is good. God bless America.

I don't usually do this kind of thing. In fact, this is legitimately the first time I've EVER asked anyone outside of my immediate family to pray for me (as in JUST myself) specifically, but the Lord put this in my mind and laid it on my heart, so here I am.

As of late, I've been struggling greatly. The devil has been assaulting me nonstop. That's the only way I can think of to describe it. Nonstop thoughts trying to seed doubts, fears, worries, anxiety, etc. almost entirely on topics and subjects that are out of my control and normal people don't worry about on a daily basis 24/7, in an almost obsessive manner to the point that, I've legitimately vomited in my mouth and been sick to my stomach more than once. Its almost like I'm being forced into a existential crisis daily for a couple of weeks now where I have no peace, nothing I normally enjoy or do for fun brings me any kind of happiness. The only time I have any kind of "peace" so to speak, is when I'm doing something mind numbing where I'm not thinking AT ALL. I've prayed together with my family twice now, and it DOES subside and go away, but the Lord's laid this on my heart to ask you guys to pray for me too.

So I'd appreciate anyone who can take a moment to just pray a quick prayer of peace and protection from the devil's machinations and attacks against me. Thank you to anyone who does so.

EDIT: I should also ask for prayers for my family too so that this stuff doesn't start happening to them as either. Thank you for that as well.

EDIT 2: Woke up this morning and saw I had nearly 80 comments and 154 likes. Read through everything and, I just wanna thank you all. I already thanked the Lord for helping me to feel better, since I do. But thank you all as well for praying for me and my family.

Matthew 18:20 (NIV): "For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them".

Well, with a 150+ I'd say Jesus is here for all of us facing this stuff. Thank you Heavenly Father for blessing all of us and doing what's best for us. For guiding us and leading us so that your will may be done in our lives. For helping us when we're down and out and picking us back up. For giving us peace, your heavenly peace, and relief from the assaults of the evil one and his minions. In the Holy name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and our Savior, we pray and ask for all of this Father.

Amen

My good friends of GAW, asking for your prayers for healing of my friend Julia. She's in the hospital right now with terrible cancer, lung fluid build up, and blood clots. She is in horrible pain, and did not want chemo but that's all the doctors can offer at this point.

Any prayers for her recovery from my beautiful frens would only help.

Thank you!

I just visited my aunt in ICU. She is a victim of the jabs. She's been given a terminal prognosis and probably will not last through the weekend. I don't think anything can be done for her to recover but I ask that her transition be peaceful and that her soul can rest with Jesus. Her name is Isabel. Please lift up her spirit. Thank you.

I think I'm losing it, frens.... With all the shit happening personally my mental health is on a knife edge tbh. I'm getting irrational, angry, emotional over stupid shit, and although my heart seems strong, the rest of me is hurting daily.

I'm living in what was once a nice house and is now looking like a bombsite. It's bringing by a lot of bad memories from the fire I had 9 years ago, which also forces me to remember my late wife. My ptsd is back. Worst of all is there is little I can do about most of this right now, as I'm playing hurry up and wait with the insurance companies and contractors, and my brain and body feel paralysed to act. Feel like I'm failing my family cuz I'm not functioning like I should...

So yeah... Could use some of God's help because I can't do this without him...
