Chatter:
I've been sick a lot during the last year, now I have mono.
The doctor is worried because it seems like my immune system
is down. She has taken tests for other things, and now I
am scared.
Counselor:
Chatter:
Every thing was starting to go really good in my life for
the first time in 12 years, but now I have all these doubts
because of these tests. I have this worry and I just don't
know how to deal with it...I know that all I can do is wait...but
it isn't easy. I pray to God and leave it in His hands, but
I never can just let go of the anxiety. Because of all of
these worries, I have a hard time sleeping.
Counselor:
Chatter: I just keep asking God to please let these tests
be okay. I don't know how I would deal with it otherwise.
Counselor:
Chatter:
To be honest....I don't pray very often....I believe in God
and Jesus and I know that I have made it through life with
His help, but like a lot of people, when things like this
happen then you start calling on God.
Counselor:
Chatter:
I know that God is the only one that can help me.
Counselor:
Chatter:
Maybe I should ask God to help me handle waiting for these
results.
Counselor:
Chatter:
I might be worrying for nothing. It could be that I am run
down and trying to do too much...being a single parent, working,
and being on the board of directors to a group that I belong
to.
Counselor:
Chatter:
I know God would be there to help me with this, but I am scared
about how I would deal with bad test results.......but in
the same respect maybe I shouldn't even worry unless they
do come back bad.
Counselor:
Chatter:
Thank you for listening to me....I just needed someone to
talk to because I haven't talked to anyone else except my
mother about these tests.
