Miracles Happen

Omaha, NEI am a Registered Nurse who was diagnosed with Type I diabetes at the age of 2
I realize that this may not be something that is looked at, nor exposed to the world. However, I am truly blessed by what I have given and received by practicing the Law of Attraction! The Secret was a gift that was shared with me back in 2006. The ideas were completely inspiring then, and I kept that idea in the back of my mind without really applying the principles. I have been diabetic since the age of 2, so well over 25 years. I was diagnosed with diabetic retinopathy, a condition well know to diabetics who have had a long-term illness of diabetes and the leading cause of blindness in the US. This diagnosis was given before The Secret was bestowed to me. In 2011, I lost my sight. There was a surgery available that would help me see, but I was told that my vision would never be the same again. I underwent the surgery, and my vision returned after about 6 months following the procedures. As they had predicted, my vision was not the same. I had graduated from nursing school, but was not able to perform very simple tasks, and therefore, could not fulfill my duties of my vocation. I had felt like I had lost everything: my home, my job, my family, my significant other, my dog, and virtually everything I worked my entire life in achieving. I had the support of many, and I felt like I had just let them down. My significant other suffered from depression and so it was difficult for him to deal with my diagnsis, too. In my mind, without direct acknowledgement of The Secret, I told myself that I was meant for more and that I deserved better. I came across my video of The Secret, and learned of The Power and The Magic, and read those books. I had gotten a job as a nurse that I love! I kept watching The Secret on nearly daily basis even though I felt like I had limited time. I made every effort to watch the film and read the books and apply what I learned. I still learn something new every time. My life has transformed. I take less insulin for my diabetes, I have 20/20 vision, I have the most wonderful job that I am up for a current promotion, my significant other is balancing his depression! Miracles, or whatever you want to call them, have entered my life because I choose to understand The Secret more and more every day and apply it as much as I can. I have been told that it takes 40 days for positive affirmations to evolve circumstances. It has not been quite 40 days, in fact, it has been about half that time since being reintroduced to The Secret that I am experiencing a revolution of changes. I believed, but I did not believe wholly and still I am receiving the most amazing gifts that I never would have imagined were possible! Thank you for sharing this incredible gift!
