I suspect I am dealing with a similar situation. My mother has been suffering terrible neck and back pain the last two weeks. At first the neurosurgeons wanted to operate immediately, but after deliberations they said it was too risky. So now we are home from the hospital and somebody must watch my mother 24x7 to help her out of of bed, pull her pants up and down in the bathroom and so forth. It isn't easy. For example, I was sitting with her on the bed, and she kept saying things like "Mother, don't leave me!", "The light is so bright it hurts my eyes!", "I hurt! I hurt!"... Not fun for me. When she gets in that state, I can't even give her a pain pill because she is too confused to swallow it.
But, I have been thinking about this, and I strongly suspect it is a demon. A couple of weeks ago, I saw a certain type of insect in a certain location. I had either psychosis or a spiritual attack about 10 years ago, and since that time seeing this type of insect has seemed to signal spiritual danger to me. My problem 10 years ago began with this same signal along with many other weird things. ... So I noticed this warning signal. Then that evening my mother's back and neck pain became extremely bad. The next day she almost passed-out from pain as I was trying to get her to the chiropractor. The chiropractors were afraid to touch her, so there was a doctor visit next. The doctor was on vacation, and his nurse didn't comprehend the seriousness. By the end of the week the doctor finally prescribed some pain medicines and ordered an MRI. We managed to do the MRI (not easy for a person in such pain). The next day instead of seeing the doctor we were told to check into the hospital immediately for possible bleeding of the spinal cord. Then after a week of discomfort and worry in the hospital the neurosurgeons finally decided it was too risky to do anything.
In the many hours of hospital boredom I was thinking about the warning signal I saw and wondering about the reason for my mother's suffering. I noticed the brand name of the hospital bed would be pronounced the same as my sister-in-law's name. My sister-in-law is in the process of divorcing my brother and this has gradually created anger and a resentment towards her - especially in my mother. So I suspect this anger and inability to forgive my sister-in-law may have opened the door to a demon that is now responsible for this horrible pain in my mother.
Apparently the thing that showed-up on the MRI has been present for years and maybe from birth. The doctors can only speculate about why there is all this pain now, because nothing is obviously wrong.
So my plan is to explain my suspicions to my mother, so she can focus on forgiving my sister-in-law. Then maybe I will need to pray to "cast-out" this demon. Then hopefully my mother will begin to heal any physical problems without the extra burden of spiritual problem.
But how am I going to "cast-out" a demon when I no longer believe in Christianity? That's a problem LOL. Hopefully I can persuade other family members who still believe to pray about it.
Another odd thing is the day I saw this warning signal all the joints in my body began swelling. For the first week I was trying to take my mother to and from doctors and I barely had the strength to turn a doorknob due to all the swelling in my wrists and hands. That was kind of weird too. Maybe it was stress or maybe it was spiritual.
Sorry to write a book. Just trying to organize my thoughts and plan. I am open to suggestions from anybody.
