Healed from chronical bronchitis and healthier than before

Bronchitis was a phenomenon Josée was very familiar with... a few times a year she had to contend with it and then she had to stay inside for quite a time and to take medication. As a child already she was troubled by it...she often coughed yellow lumps and she drank quite some cough mixture in the course of her life. Having a phone call with Ann she told that she invariably used to have a bronchitis in the period between Shrovetide and Easter.

Adventures with God during the holidays

Last June Harry and Suzanne went to Hungary with Eugène and Josée. They have had a nice holiday and would drive back home two days later, when Suzanne said that she had not been experiencing something special with God this years. Josée answered that they had been driving everywhere without any problem, and always had parking space and asked if this was not enough? Still Suzanne wanted to experience God once again really close...

On the way back home they stayed one day in Passau, at the Austrian-German border. That evening they were enjoying a delicious ice cream on a terrace. Suddenly they saw very dark clouds coming their way; they rushed to the car to drive to the hotel. Meanwhile the sky became pitch black.

At the beginning of October Hugo and Inger went to the Netherlands to take their boat out of the water. Hugo had bought a new wheel clamp for the boat trailer. It is an ingenious system with a spring. When he wanted to remove it, it burst open with a tremendous vigour. Hugo could not jump away in time and had the wheel clamp full-blast on his right skin bone. It hurted immensely, but Hugo finished his job and took the boat trailer with his car to the slipway for boats.

Then the pain was so bad that he thought he would lose consciousness.
Inger was standing there waiting for him and she checked the contusion together with Hugo. It concerned an enormous extravasation of blood which kept on increasing in size. Ivo, Inger's brother, thought it had to be a bursted cephalic vein... so huge the swelling was. They entered the office of the harbour master and Inger asked for an ice-bag. They did not have one, but the harbour master came with an enormous first-aid kit. When he was gone for a moment, Inger prayed for a total recovery. The co-worker of the harbour master was urging Hugo and Inger to go quickly to the hospital. The harbour master went to disconnect the boat trailer and put the car near the gate in order to let them leave as quick as possible.

Yet Inger, being a nurse herself, stayed calm and she phoned Ann and Nadine for advice. They confirmed that most likely it concerned a heavy extravasation of blood and that they could not do very much at the hospital. When the co-worker of the harbour master saw she could not convince Inger to go to the hospital, and that cold water was all they needed, they took Hugo to the nearest landing stage. There they spouted for quite some time cold water with a hosepipe on his skin bone. Thereafter they went to get a spot of food for a moment and they took off homewards again. When they arrived home, they told the entire story to Ann, Nadine and Sam. When Hugo showed his skin bone, there was barely anything to notice any more... Speaking of a miraculous recovery!
