Took rat poison to end my life...

I was depressed and could not stand or walk. Nothing could break through my sadness. I wanted to die, so I tried killing myself by taking a bunch of prescription medication.

Some time later I began to feel a numbness all over my body and my doctor gave me a blood test. When the results came back I was rushed to the hospital and was told that I had ITP (Immune Thrombocytopenic Purpura), a bleeding disorder that interferes with the blood’s ability to clot.

Things got worse when my husband left the house and I took rat poison to end my life. I survived, and when I spoke to my husband about what I had done, he asked me to forgive him and came back home. But a few months later he left again, and for the third time I tried ending my life, this time by drinking boric acid.

My children rushed me to the hospital where they flushed my stomach, but it was already badly damaged.

Now I could only handle liquids and soft food. My life was a total disaster, and the suicidal thoughts were now worse than ever.

One day I saw The Universal Church on TV and decided to attend. I was encouraged to attend every Tuesday for my healing and every Friday for my deliverance. It was hard because I was depressed and didn't feel like going anywhere or doing anything.

For a while I was content to attend off and on, until I got fed up and decided that my life was not going to change unless I got serious about it. So I stopped paying attention to how I felt and started attending the church twice every Friday. The more I came, the more I started to see a change in my  life.

For ten years I suffered with depression, and now God has set me free. I’m also completely healed of ITP. I no longer want to end my life, on the contrary, I want to live and I am very happy to have found a God who was able to completely change my life.
