Hi Everyone,
It has been almost two months since I have written anything. Part of the reason is health struggles. The other is working hard to finish my certification as a Data Analyst.
Oh, and I tried opening Death’s Door, and found it locked.
Health Struggles
Three weeks ago, I came as close to dying as I have ever been. I spent 16 days in the hospital with a staph infection, Septicemia and Sepsis. And yes, you read that right. Sepsis. Yesterday, I spent six hours in the hospital to confirm that my Septicemia and Sepsis were gone and that the antibiotics had been successful in eradicating any of this deadly bug still in my tissues. I still have another test next week to make sure.
Furthermore, of the past ten months, I have spent 30 days in the hospital. And each infection was worse than the previous. This progression is ominous, and for the first time ever, I told Mrs. Little on Saturday that she needs to start preparing for the real possibility that I won’t make it to 2027.
It’s hard to know how close death was, but people whose infection has gone into Sepsis often have 24 hours or less to survive. And I’m unsure when that clock started ticking. I will do my best to stay alive as long as possible, but the risk of death is higher than when I faced the terrorist bombings in Jerusalem during my first 14 years in Israel.
Lord willing, the additional measures that I am instituting in my personal life will reduce this risk. But these things are hard to know, and in the hands of God.
This latest event has been an exhausting three weeks that has left me shattered and trying to claw myself back from what happened. I’m not anywhere close to normal, but by the Grace of God, I’m getting there. And God has really seen me through this, as bad as it was.
On the good side, I’m still able to continue my cancer drug trial. This cancer drug has damaged my immune system and was responsible for how aggressive this infection became. But I would rather risk death and keep cancer at bay, than let cancer destroy me within a few short years.
I still believe that God still has work for me to do, and I want to keep doing it for as long as God allows me to. God has the measure of our days, and none of us will die sooner than He has decreed.
Certification As A Data Analyst
Coming down from Taipei to Tainan (Taiwan) six years ago to help my dying father-in-law has been a financial disaster. Even as I write this, I am watching to make sure that he can navigate from the living room to his bedroom without mishap. This allows Mrs. Little to teach students who desperately need her help.
The core reason why we moved to one of he poorest cities in Taiwan is this verse:
1 Timothy 5:8
But if any provide not for his own, and specially for those of his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel.
If we did not come down to help my father-in-law, I would have to answer to God for not taking care of family in desperate need.
The good thing is that I have discovered what I believe to be God’s answer to our current predicament. Those who are certified as either a Project Manager or a Data Analyst have the ability to work outside the United States for US companies willing to pay for our services.
Mrs. Little is already an experienced project manager and is working on her certification, and my background in data analysis is perfect for the certification that I have almost completed. In fact, I’m already certified. I just need to finish the ‘Capstone Project’ and build a portfolio of additional projects to round out my CV.
God threw these opportunities in my face six months ago, and I grabbed this chance to escape the financial black hole we are living in. And yes, finishing her certification was part of what I was saying when I told Mrs. Little that she needs to accelerate plans to survive, if I don’t make it to 2027.
This is also part of the reason why my article output has reduced. The certification process has grabbed a massive amount of my time and has often left me too drained to write.
The Need To Write
One of the other reasons why I have not written more is that I have finished the main part of what needed to be said. The last part, tracking the collapse of our civilization, has been slow moving enough that there wasn’t as much to talk about until I had gathered enough data for an article.
The irony is that things have started to accelerate in certain areas while I was in the hospital, and I didn’t want to mix a ‘personal note’ with that.
We are closing in on critical events that no one in the media seem to be talking about. And these events will reshape the world as we know it. They will also be part of the leading edge of our civilization’s collapse. And yes, we passed the point of no return a long time ago.
Lord willing, I will be able to talk about all this on Saturday.
Thank You All
Thank you for your patience. I am grateful for the support that so many of you have given. It kept my servers up and freed me to work on things that needed to be done.
I’m not worried about dying. I’m far more worried about leaving work undone and the well-being of you all. Our brothers and sisters in Christ are in harm’s way, and I hate the thought of that.
Please pray that I would understand and follow God’s direction, so that what is left to do before I pass away is complete. And I hope that others will rise to take my place when I am gone.
May God bless you all,
John Little
