My fears
Something happened this morning that got me trembling, and I began to ask myself several questions at a time. It has gotten to the point of feeling so scared whenever I receive a call from my son's teacher. How did my level of fear get to this point regarding the health of my son? I thought I was this strong woman who puts all her trust in God, but right now, I am questioning my faith.
Sincerely, as I type this text, tears are rolling in from my eyes down to my cheeks. I feel so emotional, and I just feel like expressing myself through writing. Perhaps I can get some therapeutic healing or hear a word from someone that can make me feel better through the comment section. This wasn't actually the post I prepared to write today, but coincidentally, it turned out to be so.
For those of you who may not know about my son's health challenge, it's been almost 5 years since we started battling with his health issue, and right now, his health is being managed by a neurologist. It's been a back-to-back clinical visit at the teaching hospital, and sincerely, he has been improving. I have been doing all that the neurologist said I should do. I make sure to buy his routine medication and ensure he doesn't miss taking it daily. I also pray daily for him as a mother, passing lots of positive declarations on his life, yet this fear is still there.
I know he had a crisis at school; it was a disaster, but gladly, my God saved him after the school rushed him to the emergency unit at the hospital when he went unconscious. Since that incident in his life, I dread receiving calls from his school within the school hour. You needed to see how I threw the food I was eating on the tiles when I got this call from his teacher this morning. My phone rang; it was just 10 a.m.; I peeped and saw the caller; it was my son's teacher, and I was like, Why is Mr. Tony calling me at this time of the day? The school hasn't been dismissed; why could he be calling? Oh no, let it not be that my son has had another crisis in school. To make matters worse, he said Mrs. MBA, and I answered, he said hold on and now cut the call. I was restless and in so much tension, and then I called him back immediately with so much curiosity, only for me to hear that he was sorry; it was an accidental call. Really, I asked! Do you know the pressure and the emotional trauma you put me under with this accidental call? Mr. Tony apologized; he understood my fear and advised that I should take it easy. He also assured me that my son is fine over there in school.
Gone are the days when my utmost fear was death, accidents, etc.; now, the fear of my son having another crisis is weighing me down on a daily basis. I think I have lost my faith; I think I am no longer the strong woman I used to be.
How do I overcome this fear?

I know how you feel even though I am not a mother, it hurts mother's to see their kids struggling with one thing or the other and as Mr Tony advised, you should always put your mind at rest.
I know you are a prayerful woman and with faith, God will always intervene no matter what the situation is. I am happy there was no emergency and your boy is in perfect health.
God has everything under control, I believe.
Hey George, thanks for coming through
I am really trying hard to put my mind at rest
I am trying to practice faith...I lost it honestly
Wondering when I will live freely without any sort of fear 😨
A few days ago I was in the office with my boss when she received a call that her child was being sent to the hospital from school. Long your short, it was a new way these scammers use to scam people now but from the way everything went down, we were both scared for a minute.
It’s normal to experience fear when it comes to your kid’s health. You’re his mom so you’re the best person who understands his condition. It’s okay to worry sometimes but you shouldn’t allow it to cloud your thoughts. You should trust that he’s doing well every moment he spends in school cos he is.
That's a strange tactic from scammers.. really, people need to be alert at all times
Yea, I will try not to allow all these cloudy mind.. thanks for coming through with your kind words
These scammers, their day will soon come.
You’re most welcome. Sending love and light to you.❤️🫶🏻
I don't how I felt emotional reading this, maybe because I am a mother too and I am putting myself in your shoes.
It's very okay to feel fear especially when it comes to our kids. Circumstances like this comes and our faith is required to fight it. Always trust God for a break through no matter how long it might take. Your son needs your faith to keep fighting his health, he needs it to heal. Keep your faith alive ma'am. God is in control! He will definitely see you through.
Yea,our faith is needed to fight this kind of situation, just trying to build my faith again...your words are so encouraging... thanks so much for your support
It must have been a really suspense filled call, but as his teacher adviced you kindly try to put your mind at ease, I know it's not really easy, but you can tell God about your fears, and trust Him to keep his child safe, because he is also God's child.
Awww, Freda...I will try my best my dear
I appreciate your kind words 🤗
You're welcome.
Thank god nothing happened to your son but unfortunately the another son was also someone's son and she must face the same feeling you felt for some time. I can guess the situation of you and as a mother it's the most difficult situation.
!PIZZA
There's no another son that something happened to actually...the caller said it's an accidental call and he didn't meant to call me.. just that the fear has been there since my son had a crisis over there in school. So any call again from the school especially at odd hours, I will feel it's another crisis again
Accidental call was nearly went to give you a heart attack. Moreover the called should need to clarify it before drop the phone.

The fact that you pray for him actually means you still are holding on to your faith
The fact that you even called the teacher back means you’re still strong
I have no idea how this feels like but I know God will never fail you
Awww, I feel encouraged with your words
Thanks so much for coming through for me ♥️

STOPAbsolute faith is needed to navigate through this phase. I know how you feel about your son. You are a true mother that wants to see her son doing fine.
You need to calmly tell yourself the reality that panicking can only aggravate a problem .
When I was in secondary school, a crises happened in my school and students were attacked. A report went through the town that students had been killed. This false report got to my mother who was in another state. It was in 2005. Neither my parents nor I had phone then. My mother broke down on hearing the news. It took the efforts of people around her to revive her. My father traveled to my state to ascertain the situation. Indeed many students were injured but I managed to escape unhurt.
Many people later advise my mother to take it easy.
I advise you to just be strong in your belief that your family is protected in God's mercy. Pick any call from the school and expect to hear something positive. God bless you, Ma.

Wow . what an experience too
This is quite encouraging
Thanks for coming through bro
Wow. I can understand you mama. You have always been talking about your son's health and how it has been disturbing you. It's always hard for a mother like you and it wasn't your fault to go through such accidental call again. Thank God it wasn't about your son. I want you to keep making your faith strong through prayer and reading the scripture about healing and good future. All is well, mama. Just believe in God that He will fight the fear completely.
