I Ruptured a Disc and Died. Now What?

A Ruptured Disc

and I Died 

on Thanksgiving morning. 



Apparently coughing to clear the throat can have devastating consequences 
including a ruptured disc and or possible death. 

Who knew. 



As I write this on Wednesday, February 28, 2024 I find myself thinking of my 

younger years and finding myself very grateful for another chance at life.


I've been a rough and tumbly kind of girl for as long as I can remember. 

Climbing trees, riding dirt bikes, fishing, camping out with kids who enjoyed the 

same, and being an outdoor 'tom boy' kind of girl, it still has me wondering how 

I never got hurt more often and worse than I did growing up.


My mother had to find herself reminding me most of my life that I was

a girl and needed to "act like a lady." 

I am still baffled to this day as watching how 'lady's acted' on television 

and entertainment, wasn't something I could even be capable of doing.


Breaking a bone or two seems to be the one thing I did pretty well, just once and 

too many bones, and that was enough for me. At age 16, a serious car accident left 

my body in a bit of a mess with a crushed leg and an arm broken completely in half.


As a younger person, I enjoyed being out in nature, horseback riding, chasing 

chickens, pigs, and cows out in the feild and trying to stay as far away from the

big black bull in the neighbors field as possible. That was our brother/not brother Robby. He was one of the many not brothers/ but brothers in our lives. 

Day and night dreams terrorized me with the bull coming across the fence into 

our field to chase me down. Going toward our old barn way out in the field was

cause for watching over my shoulder because in my mind that big bull would some day come 

to get me. I'm not even sure where the thought came from or why I thought it. I scouted out places to get to just in case and decided best routes up. 

No, it was never even a problem, but my little / big imagination saw it very clearly.


We had to get up before the sun came up in order to get everything finished before school.

My imagination kept me going at times in full throttle getting to the animals early before 

the sun came up.

Often in the early morning darkness I was thinking that big bull had come through that fence 

and coming after me. 

He was truly the bad guy. 

In my mind, in my thoughts and walking way out to the barn, even during the day, was a little bit 

closer to 'that bull' that haunted me. At times it was too much.

In the darkness, seeing with a flashlight sometimes the moon.

One little sound would cause me to run like an insane person running from nothing 

but I just knew that bull was right behind me, right on my heels and his breath was about 

to reach my neck. 

Unable to see in the morning darkness, running at full strength away from something 

that wasn't even there left me hating morning chores and that big bull. 


More times than enough finding myself face flat in the dirt with my little heart pounding 

and an imaginative bull chasing me down in the dark. 

Just that should have caused more injuries but there was a big open field with little to run into. 

*not our bull, not even on our land - an active imagination of a little 4'10" girl.


Getting hurt generally came along with the farming life at some point or another, it's 

just the way the farm life goes. 

Our neighbor Tony was somewhat afraid of nothing, and a bull rider in my mind. 

Not sure if he actually was or not but he was somewhat my hero. If that bull ever came to 

get me, he was like the night in shining armor; but not. He'd be a bull rider.

I imagined him as the bull rider who would take the bull away and the brother/not brother Robby would hide him away in another field far away. 

Luckily mom kept a close eye on us and reminded us often

of things that could and would kill us or possibly even eat us. 


I'm Still A Bit Shocked:

So imagine my suprise when a simple cough, in my safe little fluffy bed, where

nothing bad should happen: happened.

I coughed to clear my throat and then I couldn't move.

I literally couldn't move without pain shooting down my back and leg. 

Every movement, every step was feeling almost like the bones I broke at age 16 in the car accident.

However, this was just a clearing of the throat; what in the World?

How could pain from a cough be so intense?

I thought it had to be a pulled muscle and rest in bed should clear things up.

However, a couple days later this pain had other plans and I found myself 

at the E.R. on Thanksgiving morning.


Thanksgiving Morning 2023 - I died. 


On arriving at the ER. everything went according to plan and they got me right into

a room as quickly as possible. There was no waiting time and everything seemed to 

be efficient when moving me through the ER process.

The little finger monitor was placed on, and it appeared as if things were going to 

be the smoothest they'd ever been going to the hospital. 


No Food: My Head Feels Like Something Is Wrong

A young lady came in with a couple of shots for the pain and left the room.

I hadn't eaten and my head felt a bit 'off' like sick to my stomach from lack of food 

with a feeling of a very clouded train of thought.

I mentioned to my husband I didn't feel quite right and it was probably from not eating.

My head began to feel foggy and I remember seeing him get up to get me some food and that's 

all I remember. 


Apparently I Died, What Now?

Apparently I flat lined for just long enough for me to wake up to someone yelling at me 

to stay awake, open my eyes, listen to what they were saying and focus on them. 

My shirt was up over my head while someone is putting heart monitors on, someone taking

blood from my finger, another person inserting an IV into the other arm, and someone else 

putting a puke bag in my face, because a needle was going in and I couldn't grab the bag.

I was able to get it all in the bag the unknown person held for me while I made crazy puke 

sounds in front of people I didn't know. 

I suppose the people holding my shirt up already know the routine; bare chest and vomit

was nothing new to them as they handled the job like pro's to keep me going in the right direction.

Everyone worked quickly and I felt as though a fog had enveloped me as I seemingly answered

questions the register nurse was asking. 

I saw my sister going in and out of this foggieness and apparently my husband called her to let

her to know to come to the hospital right away. Not sure how the call went, but she was there.

Mom and my other sister came as well and my husband was there for moral support and prayer as well.



To The Hospital Room

Rushing me quickly to the room on another floor in the hospital, the nurses there began taking to their

jobs.

A week later I was still there and in pain, however being prepped for ruptured disc surgery.

All went well where that's concerned and I'm still healing after about 8 weeks now I think. 

My hip still hurts quite a bit, especially if I cough, move wrong, or try to stretch: So I try not to.

Well, I ruptured a disc and died. Now what?


Thank You mom, sisters, brother/not brothers very few best friends, if you're in my life and offered support or a kind word. Somewhere along the way we've crossed paths. 

I really do appreciate everything people have done for me during this and any other time I've 

needed support or help of any kind. 

lf it weren't for good people and prayer it's possible life would be a little different at this moment in time.

How to Stay Safer

How You Can Stay Safer

And Prepare With Knowledge 

You Didn't Even Know You Needed


With the world in the state that it's in, 

it's even more important to 

protect yourself and your children. 


Not by being afraid, 

but having information needed to take care of things 

if an emergency were to happen.


This includes staying safer from family members, entertainment industry, people in the educational system, sexual exploitaion, trafficking, grooming and other areas of subject that seem to upset people in a variety of ways.

Hi there, 

I'm Mrs. Rita to many young people,

There are other names and we won't go into that now. 

The links found in the information on this page can be overwhelming and troubling, most are not for children but for more for men or women who have the Stomach to see or hear what's being shared. 

Many years ago I wrote about, taught, went in to schools in the small communities in and around the small communities in the area we lived.  My husband, children and myself shared how children could stay safer from those who want to harm them. 

This didn't mean we never had problems; it only means because of the information, we were able to stay safer than had we not had the information. 

Back then I had an editor, I'm not worrying about that anymore, there are some things too important and there's no time to waste. 

During those years I began to understand the catastrophic problem with abuse, especially with women and the most innocent, the children. 

Men were seldom mentioned; this could be that most men never report these crimes against themselves and humanity. 

No, it's not just about one person. 

The abuser has a lust that he or she cannot contain or control. One that takes over them without discretion at times and or lack of discipline. 

They continue to abuse; while they tell you that they love you. 

They tell you that you can't tell anyone else or you won't be together anymore. 

They tell you not to tell anyone or they will kill something. Your cat, friend, parent or some stuffed animal you shared too much knowledge about online. 

Part truth. Part Lie. 

They love what they can get from you.

They will go to prison so no, you won't be together anymore. 

They want to control you with fear so they conquer and break you.

You are ONLY being used. 

If you felt something while you were reading this and you may feel you're being used, you more than likely are. 

You need to leave that person or situation right away. 

It's Okay though; You're not alone. 

There are millions hurting and not understanding. There are many that want to get out. Live a different life away from abuse you can never speak about. Hold it all inside so maybe it will just go away.

I'm going to tell you right now: Your situation will NOT go away, you have to move away from it now. You have felt it, you know it. You just aren't sure what to do.


What I found:

At that time, 20+ yrs. ago, the average boy was molested 1 out of 6 boys. Those where only the crimes according to the records. The average girl was 1 out of 5 girls if memory serves me. These were children from the earliest of ages including infants and toddlers up to 18 yrs. of age. 

Those were stats I was unwilling to sit still over and I began to write even more. This led to speaking in homes, and small family gatherings with Christian and Homeschool families. 

Over the years I watched my own children subject to these crimes against children even in one of the homes we were speaking in - an older child there was targeting my daughter because she was the new kid. 

Without understanding what we were there for the child proceeded to try to get my very shy and quiet little precious child to participate in something she understood was wrong. She may have been 6 or so. 

While I was speaking, I heard my little poptart say "NO!", "I Said NO!" very sternly and loudly which she never ever did: and I took off running. 

I already knew the signs and my two miracle children had learned early how to stay a little bit safer. 

I was able to help change that particular situation. 

However, I found that throughout a child's life, each is faced with many, many more of these same scenarios from anywhere and everywhere. 

Personally, I thought there was something wrong with me until I grew up to find this is an epidemic nobody is talking about. 

Not enough at all. Keep reading.

For Taking Your Time up to this point Thank You

Say Hello and let me know you saw this page <copy and paste> > > 

      "How to Stay Safer - Your Article on Blogger." 

add this to the Thank You page.

It really means a lot if you interact there. I'm trying to find out where people are coming from on a more personal level. I just started doing this, so please add the information to the comments on that page. Add other thoughts as well. 

The page was originally added to give people an idea as they grow their business how they can take a video and earn income with it. Your ideas and thoughts can build your business. Or in this case, help keep people just a little bit safer in life. 

Thanks ahead of time. 

Now on to the rest of the information.

What Program Can Help Keep My Child Stay Safer?

The Yello Dyno - 

When my children were young I found a child safety program called the Yello Dyno that teaches children in a very non threatening way how to stay safe.

Unlike the other programs for children out there, the researcher, author and speaker, Jan found that even when children have the information, they still froze under fear.

She went into the prisons and asked over 100 child predators what they did to get the children. 

Each predator had their own story and skills.

Working with the authority, surviors of crimes, the prisoners information, statistics and determination; Jan wrote for the safety of children and families everywhere.

This information was written over 30yrs. ago so what I was able to find at this point is below. 

Get Two Copies of Your Child's Fingerprints

The first is a finger print pkg. and book. Get your children printed while they're young and keep a copy in a post office box and one in your home. 

Finger print your children: This is just in case. We never know if something is going to happen we just pray and hope we never have to experience this type of horror.

Why does it matter to fingerprint your children?

This is YOUR copy or your childrens prints, it doesn't go anywhere else unless something should happen. 

The time it takes to find a missing person depends on the information the authorities have on the person. 

When you take your child's prints, make sure you give them the understanding of what this is for. Not in fear, but for future knowledge. 

In normal settings, we want children to behave so we do tell them to keep their hands to themselves when we take them in public. 

However, when a child has been removed without a parents knowledge, it should be made clear that they have to let you know where they are. 

Since you have their prints you're able to get them to the authorities in a timely manner. 

Teach your children to touch things if they are taken without your knowledge. "Touch the counter, touch the doors on the refridgerator, on the front doors coming in and going out, touch the side of the cash register. Be specific so you both know how to find one another. 

 The more evidence the better chances of finding your little pop tarts. :-) 

One thing is for sure, if you have a copy of your child's fingerprints, you can get it to the proper authorities more quickly. 

TIME saves lives. 

The Yello Dyno - Child Safety Products

These are older videos but as much needed today as then. I'm not sure if there's still a site or products outside of what I found. Reach out to her and see if she still has a website.

Tricky People


Dearest Jan,

If you ever come across this page, I will forever be greatful to you and your determination. My fries will always be your fries too. You came and sat with me at a conference you spoke at with other celebrities and actors. At some point you came to the back where I was and sat down next to me. We shared fries together and I will always appreciate your warmth and kindness during that small fraction of time.


Thank you for having a part in saving my own child but millions of others as well.

Bonus:   A Super List of People to Learn From
You'll need a Spiral Notebook with 3 sections, envelope type of 
Get a 3-5 Subject Notebook with pockets as many pages as you can find. *this isn't the one I use but it's the closest I could find. I use Mead with a heavier pocket. It's the best one I've seen out there so it's my personal preference. To get started grab the one above. Later find one with a good sturdy pocket for holding your notes, ideas written on napkins, and anything else you feel should go into the pockets. You may want to go ahead and tape the corners and edges of the pockets for more secure hold. I do this on mine also because these are my thoughts and I don't want to loose them. 



Grab your pen and notebook and dive in:
Ask yourself and write down physically, in the notebook.
* While you're checking out these creators, remember they are building something with their hands, minds, ideas and time. What do you see they're not seeing? 
* Take note of these things while you're writing about each person
    * Are they charging enough for their products, do you have an idea that might help or build your own business with something they've shared or said?

RitaAnn~ on Etsy

What does the above have to do with the below?

Well take a look at some of the information on the link above. Do you have gifts and talents, skills or a creative flow that could somehow fit? 

 The general idea is to be creative and find ways to help other people as well as help yourself and family in some way.

If you're just completely unsure ask yourself:

"What do I know that I can help people with:  ____________________ ?"

cowboy and protectorIf you're a cowboy, there's cowboyin' stuff you can teach. Everything from cooking outdoors, to tying knots and putting new shoes on that old mare. 

Don't forget about bailing hay, birthing babies, chicks and ducks, and problems with gardening and bugs. Your information can help so many.

The online world has yet to see all the survival information, canning, building, gardening and keeping water clean but there are some folks out there that can do all of that. Those that can't do any of it can learn from those that can. 

In some places around the world, people may not have an income, but they trade what they do have, to pay for what is needed. People have been 'trading' items and services for many years. 

There are groups of farmers around the world fighting desertification and using rainwater to help rebuild the deserts around their fields. 


Their water ideas and investments have been found profitable. Though this link only gives one method there are many viable sources.


"Who Brought the Waters?" 

The farmers in parts of India are learning water economics through harvesting as well as putting back into dried out wells, and desolate land. 

 Raghunath, India is teaching people how to make ponds for new harvests and some as much as 95% success. Some families are able to use the water again and life is changing for a once desolate water supply and land.


Rainwater Economics - How it works 

Bhagirath Krishak Abhiyan was awarded Water Conservation for Food Security  I can't remember offhand all the details but I have to share it just the same__ as one of the three finalists for:

Category I

Best Water Management Practices

Agricultural Engineering

He's helping to shape the future for generations of people.

If you are a crafter and can find ways to work along the lines of what this man is doing, it's possible there is a market for that and you'll be able to add those type of products to etsy as well. 


How Does Water Harvesting and Crafting Go Together? 

He took what he knew and he did something with that knowledge  - that's it. 

This information he needed to learn along with the obstacles made a difference in his community and the world.

Prayers After God's Own Heart


Prayers After God's Own Heart


“Prayers After God’s Own Heart is more than a daily devotional—it’s an invitation into deeper intimacy with the Father. Each day’s Scripture, reflection, and prayer gently guide you to align your heart with God’s will and grow in authentic, Spirit-led prayer. A beautiful resource for anyone longing to walk closer with the Lord.”


An Invitation to Enter Into a Deeper, More Personal 
Relationship with Your Heavenly Father



by Robert Alan McArthur (Author)


This one-year daily devotional is an invitation—an invitation to come on a fresh and exciting adventure into the Word of God. It is an invitation to enter into a deeper, more intimate relationship with your Heavenly Father—the One who made you, and wants you, and loves you like no other.


It is an invitation to enter into the peace, and joy, and protection, and provision, and purpose of an abundant life that can only be found by having a right relationship with the Father through Christ—a covenant relationship of surrender, trust and obedience. It is a call to live in Truth, and to allow that Truth to set you free to be everything that God has called you to be.


God’s Word has an answer to every situation and circumstance of your life, and this devotional explores many of those answers, as it moves you from fear to faith, from doubt to belief, from despair to hope, from darkness to light, from the lies of the enemy to the truth of God’s unrelenting, unending, unfailing, and passionate love for you!


Each day’s devotion focuses on a particular passage from the Bible, and uses the truth found in the passage to offer a prayer for God’s help in correctly understanding and rightly applying that truth to your life. As you move through the year, each new day will bring new insights into who God is and all that He has done for you. It will also reveal who you are in Christ—so you can courageously and confidently do all things that that He asks of you, knowing your strength is found in Him alone.


This devotional will change your life—because you cannot come to knowledge of the Truth of the Word of God and not be changed. The way that you allow it to change your life will depend largely on the choices that you make when confronted with the Truth. 


Use this devotional to help you choose wisely God’s very best path for you—and know that He always has your best interests at heart.

Magnificent Monday

Magnificent Monday

While other people find Monday's somewhat oppressive, I find Mondays Magnificent.

There are also people who have an unnatural fear of Mondays. 

Yep, it's a thing.


Hey there, 

Thanks for stopping by this page.

Monday. 

Not many people appreciate the first work day of the week and for good reason. 

I won't dispute all the reasons people have given me over the years to hate Mondays. 

However, Monday can be a good day when you take a look at it from a different perspective.

The best perspective I can personally give to looking forward to Mondays is that if waking up another day means 'even on a Monday' then yes, I consider it a bonus. 

Not everyone woke up this morning or on the next Monday morning you wake. 

If you wake up any day of the week, you have one more day to live and experience and help someone make it through another day as well; even a smile can make the difference. 

I'll start by saying the Sunday nights before closing my eyes, I mentally as well as physically record the goals and steps for Monday. 

Why is mentally preparing for Monday so significant? 


While most people are frustrated about the new week and the workload, my preparations are a bit different *for my personal taste, and my outlook on a new week gets a boost. 

When you prepare mentally for a good day, it should help your day go better due to getting ready with the goals and plans for the first day of the week. 

These are only my opinions and work for me personally. I'm just sharing with the thought with the hopes it might help someone. These ideas may or may not work for you, only you can decide. 
I'm not a professional but have listed some below.

Being prepared for Monday can help with a positive attitude when the day arrives. It also helps my stress level go down considerably. 

Let me know if it helps your attitude, stress level, an overall day also. 
NOTE: There are links below to Professionals with more information

1) Take about 20 minutes out and stop everything you're doing. During that time put yourself into a relaxed state and meditate on peaceful thoughts.
 
Think only of things that make you happy, a stony secluded stream, birds chirping, rainfall, the ocean, waterfalls, whatever makes you feel relaxed and at peace in your mind. 

Stay in that peaceful state for at least 20 minutes to calm your mind.

After 20 minutes of relaxing your mind:

2) Take a moment to write down your new weeks goals below in the comment section, how you'll set your Monday up and how you could possibly make it a Magnificent Monday. 


Now if you've made it this far, help me get to know you better.

Do You or Someone You Know Own a Small Business, Corporation, or have an Entrepreneurial mindset? 

Blogger is a great way to get started as it's been around for quite some time and has a large group of business owners who support one another. 

If you don't have a Blogger Account - go to the link above and get started.

Seriously reconsider getting your daily goals, agenda, farming ideas, fishing stories, and architectural madness on the site that Google has put together to help the every day business owner.

Take a moment to check out the very short somewhat interactive video and connect with me. 



Did you finish watching and participating on my little interactive video? 

If you watched the video that means your information should be in the comments section and I'm looking forward to finding out more about you.

I found these Magnificent Monday Smile Makers - you're welcome. 🤓

The search was looking for 'therapy' for Monday anxiety. I couldn't help but laugh out loud.



Do You or Someone You Know Have A Fear of Monday? 

Yep, it's a thing.


Fear of Monday is called Deuterophobia - yes sir. 

According to FearOf.org Deuterophobia is the fear of Mondays and you can find out more on the site. 

If that happens to be you, take a moment to check out some certified people that can help you in case you're dealing with anxiety before Monday comes along.

I did a quick search on AOL.com to see what it might bring up. 
Here are a few results for a therapist that might be able to help you with the anxiety you feel about Monday.
