My Season Of Pain - Yvonne Tharao

  • Yvonne Tharao had one brief in life; to make her parents proud. She dreamt of studying abroad. The Visa issuing officer felt that she lacked social ties that would ensure she comes back home after her studies. After the 2nd rejection on the same grounds, she set on building ties. Education, marriage, children and proud parents. With time, her strong ties started unraveling, spinning her stable life out of control. Nobody had taught her how to deal with keeping many balls up in the air when her world was crumbling. When her Dad got very sick, she thought she'd hit rock bottom. Little did she know, rock bottom has several basements.

    Things happened so fast and i haven't come to terms yet of just anything.
    My mum passed on two years after dad.
    Life has never hit me this way. But as Yvonne has said, there's nothing you can't get over.
    I might not be able to figure out now, but eventually i know I'll be able to.

    Crazy how this feels like my story 😳. My father was the ill one but instead, two weeks after burying her father, we lost my mum in December 2020. Thinking now my dad would make it through due to effective treatment, 6 months latter, he died of a heart attack... They were my sister's and I biggest cheerleaders.. I don't know how I have been sailimg through...But God

    What a journey of pain albeit short but seems like a mountain. Death rattles even the strongest of a believer. I can only empathize but one thing I know God brought you out and He will see you through to greater victories. Death of a parent/s is indescribable and only the one who goes through can truly understand the pain. My dad was sick for 25 years and when he rested I was upset with God but came to realize this was best for dad as he was in so much pain and it was selfish of we as a family to just want them going through the pain. Of course in the initial we were upset but when we think about the pain my dad went through we are at peace. My dad was everything to his children and wife. But God has walked with us through and through. Friends and relatives have been there and I can only thank God.
    Yvonne you inspire us that all shall be well. All the best in your studies. May victory dwell in your life and household all the days of your life. You are a strong tower to your family and all those who listened to your talk!! 🙏

My world was shattered life has not been the same but I have God and I believe with God I have everything and he has been faithful... I'm stronger than ever I believe the world will hear my story one day but I miss my parents it is well

    I hope you healed fully. Indeed it was not an easy journey but Gods grace is always sufficient.

    May God strengthen you. I have lost close family members I loved deeply. But God is faithful. I survived.
