All your children are so precious but Adanna is the biggest blessing you'll ever have. Never let her forget that her sweet choice spirit is the most adorable thing ever. She's very capable and mature. And her love for you is heartwarming. I had a similar fall in the garage and layer on the floor till my bum quit throbbing. I so feel your pain.

I've been following for a while but this is my first comment. You are a strong daughter of a loving Heavenly Father! I am so glad you have your children in counseling, it will help. 9 years ago I went through a divorce. My 2 kids where devastated, as well as me too. Fast forward today, I'm happy and content, still single but that's fine. Hang in there, keep your chin up, and it will get easier. I pray for you and your family daily. YOU INSPIRE ME just for being you and your ability to handle things. Life is messy but how we choose to respond is what matters. Much love from Preston idaho

Oh Julie, please ask someone to help you with things like that I’d come do it for you if you need it. Praying you didn’t get any more damage your wrist. Love you and please get ahold of me if you need help. Know that God is with you everywhere you go. I know God will hear your prayers frothe parking lot.

Julie, I'm so sorry you fell. Adana is such a wonderful daughter. Prayers can be heard from anywhere. I'm praying for you and the kids.

Julie, I'm just sitting here at home after just watching this video. First, I just want you to know I'm a new subscriber as I found your channel by following Tia Stokes. I am just in awe of your incredible patience and Love for your family. I may have different religious beliefs in aspects, but I believe we're all brothers and sisters in Christ. I'll be praying for you for your physical healing, emotional and personal relationship that I know you want so much 🙏🏼🤗❤🥰. I'm from Michigan and I really truly enjoy you and your beautiful children ❤. Sending you all big hugs 🫂 🤗 ❤

Julie, you might be related to me. Many years ago I broke my ankle, had two surgeries and a cast for 4 months. The night before I got my cast off, I ran into a piece of furnitue and broke a toe on my other foot. All I could do was laugh and cry. I am considered the family klutz.🤣 You are one of the strongest women I know of. Much love abd many to you.

I hope you're going to be okay Julie I really do that was a rough fall. By the way that book is precious

You don't need to be sorry, thinking of you and praying for you.

Oh no ! That was a bad fall. Praying for you and your family. I feel you should let your surgeon know that you bashed your Injury in a fall. He will let you know if he wants you to have an x.ray or check up with him. Oh sweetie you are having a rough time, battered and bruised inside and out. Sending Hugs. Ps your daughter did amazing caring for you. Well done young lady. ❣

Oh Julie your poor wrist! India was so concerned for her Mama, she's so sweet and helpful. I think it is a wonderful gesture to leave gifts for your family anonymously. It must give you a boost knowing that there are friends and neighbours who care and want to be unobtrusively helpful. God bless you and your family.

Julie, I am so happy to see you continue to rely on your faith in the Lord. I, too, was sealed in the temple. Now, my ex-husband has remarried. I still keep my covenants and understand your sorrow. The Lord knows YOU and loves YOU. I still struggle with the sorrow at times, but I know my Heavenly Father is there to comfort me when needed. You are a choice daughter. You are in my prayers. If you ever just need to talk, please reach out. We need to stick together!🙏💞

Such a sweet post. Thank you for telling us about your church. I'm very interested.❤

That was a terrible fall! I am watching this out of order and am glad you now have a step stool to stand on instead of a chair! So glad your wrist isn't broken again. It is a little setback, I think, but you will keep on healing and progressing. It is good that you are seeking God out. He will help you. Having made those covenants with God, you are blessed with His power to help you and your children. Our prays help too. I am praying for your whole family, you, your children, and your husband. I hope everything will come back together, but if it doesn't, that you will be protected and strengthened. No matter what, I pray for peace and joy for you. Hugs 💞

Blessings on your week,Julie.❤

Julie please drive carefully out there. God bless you 😘😘🥰🥰🐝🇬🇧

Amen Julie! When my first marriage was falling apart and we were separated I kept my wedding band on and I stayed committed to the marriage vow that I made before God even if my husband was not I knew that God was calling me to rise up to the challenge of just being committed to the vow that I made to the Lord or before the Lord if that makes any sense. Jesus is our husband and especially going through a time like this the comfort of the Holy Spirit will definitely fill you with His peace. I know it’s a roller coaster I’ve been there and done it and God spoke directly to me and said hold on to me because I knew regardless of the outcome you are going to be OK and I am going to get you through this and I’m speaking that to you as well because you are a godly woman and a tough chick and you are just doing amazing in the midst of this storm!! Of course you’re going to have times where you just want to scream and cry and fall apart but that won’t last forever I am praying for you and I’m praying for your husband pray that he would man up and come back and be the man of God and the father to these eight children that he helped create! God is our source and He will never fail us!! 🙏🏽🫶🏽🙏🏽 love n prayers

Oh no Julie, are you okay? I wish I could give you a hug, you sure could use one. Here is to hoping nothing is broke, if it’s not feeling better soon, I would definitely have it looked at. Much love to you and the kids!!❤️❤️❤️❤️

My husband always tells me not to stand on a folding chair. I might listen to him now 😆 I'm so sorry you were hurt again, and I can't imagine how painful that must have been. I'm also sorry the temple wasn't open for you, but the Lord knows where your heart is, and you will be blessed for making the effort. When I went through a divorce 6 years ago, often I would go to the temple parking lot after they were closed because it seemed to be the only place I could find peace late at night (this was while my husband was still living at the house and it was hard to be there). I would still do temple work weekly, but sometimes I needed an extra boost in between. You are a mighty warrior Julie, and I know your family on the other side of the veil is rooting you on!

I'm so sorry you fell I hope you feel better soon love from candida happy Sunday evening 👍👍🙏🙏❤️❤️🤗🤗🇨🇦

I'm not LDS but I'm a Christian. I had a lot of crap stuff happened to me growing up and we didn't know everything before we got married. 6 months after we were married, my husband said to me if I hadn't of stood before God and made those promises to you and Him then I'd be gone, this is so hard. It hurt a lot but I'm grateful for the Godly man that my husband is. I can only imagine. But I know when God is involved within your marriage it's so much more. Which I guess, as you talk about, makes it all the more harder also. God hears you no matter where you are. Car prayers are one of my favourites 💜

Sending Prayers of Healing and Comfort🙏💗🙏💗

Oh Julie. Please be careful. Love your sharing the explanation of the temple. You did a beautiful job. I think of you all the time. So sad for what is happening.

It’s not where you pray but how you pray Julie...so praying in your car & giving your head & heart peace in just as good ..Sending lots of love and light.x🕯💜🕯💜🕯💜

I'm such a clutz. I have no time for this

Julie, you and I have something in common super mom. Right now 9 of my children have colds including myself. I was so worried about all of them that I didn't see that I, myself was getting worse. My cold turned into bronchitis and flared up my asthma which made it hard for me to breathe. My oldest called my friend Leighton who is a doctor and she left work and came right over and took me to the hospital. (Don't worry my neighbor 2 teenage daughters came and watched the kids) Leighton then chewed me out for not listening to my body. Julie sometimes we have to listen to our bodies and your wrist is saying that you are doing too much too fast.

Oh my God....feel this to my heart...

Prayers for you Julie that you did not rebreak your wrist.

Julie I come to your channel often! I have received strength from you and the reminders you have shared. It sucks being a single mom and if you can find the time to go to the temple so can I.

Oh no!

Oh my word girl! Take it easy ❤️🙏🏻🤗😘🇨🇦

Love you and praying for all of you always much love from New York!😇❤️

I pray you are ok after that fall! I can relate,I fell twice,1st breaking my tailbone and 2nd ending up with a concussion- no fun🤦‍♀️! I was raised Catholic, and it is hard when life takes an path you never thought. My faith has helped me survive when I felt like giving up. Heavenly Father has you, and you are loved!

Your daughter is so loving and caring and a strong support because that’s what’s model to her by her mom. We all make mistakes that we call “dumb mistakes”, but I don’t believe you did it on purpose. Maybe just not thinking things through, however nobody really deserves it, (getting hurt), for their mistakes including you. I’m glad that you were not injured more than you were, and I hope that everything is OK with your thumb, your wrist, your elbow, and your bum. Cut yourself some slack. We all do the best we can with the resources that we have, and we all need to learn to reach out to others for help and except help. And just maybe that’s the lesson in this for today. My wise younger brother always ask me when I do something that doesn’t workout in my favor, “ so what have you learned? ”…🤔

I’m also recovering from a distal radius fracture and I was told to be careful and not perform any risky activities for a while because if it breaks again (mines was displaced and broken in 3 places), then I would probably need another surgery and recovery would be much longer. A brace is meant to protect the bone. I fell 2 weeks ago going in the house because it was raining outside and a week after my surgery fell down the stairs, but had a splint on. I highly recommend wearing a splint. I hope you feel better soon.

I wish I lived close. I am raising all my grandkids and they are all in school and alone most all day. If I was your friend I would move in for a few months and do all your physical stuff as you heal.

Hoping that plate did it's job and held your wrist in place. Your thumb looked gnarly! i hope it's ok. Julie...Never ever stand on a folding chair! I am just glad Adana was there when it happened and could help you. Hang in there Julie! I know you made a promise in the church but you aren't the one who walked away from it.

Plate can be broken. Not it’s job to stop a retreat. It’s job is to hold back together

God Bless you all!…I have learned the hard way also to Ask For Help. Even if it seems a little task- Satan just loves to make you overstep your limitations & BOOM…another injury. No one can say that you are not trying your hardest to move ahead in faith. But right now- you need to find support, back up and a cheer leader to help! Your kids are awesomely raised!…they need a list of who to call, what to do so they can calmly get help. Sending prayers for a strong hedge of protection around you, your family and your home!

I have really awesome wrist ice packs that I want to rush on over to you! I hate when I do something I know I shouldn’t be doing and then get hurt. Mine usually starts with me saying ‘watch close because I’m only going to do this once’…that should be a clue for me not to do whatever I’m about to do but 🤦🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️ Also, watching you with your thera-putty makes me want to bring you my softer stuff. That pink putty is so stiff it make me hurt watching you do the exercises. I can barely do them with the softer stuff! Lol You are tough! You are also a great example to me for doing your exercises so much, I really need to be better and watching you reminds me of that! And you are great at keeping Heavenly Father close. Even though things are super hard, I’m sure He is watching over you (and probably said don’t stand on a folding chair, just like you’ve told your children!😉)

The Draper Temple is Beautiful both inside and out, Jordan Temple is not far from Draper have you ever thought to go there?

My thought and healing prayers are with you and your beautiful babies! Question: when you use your therapy puddy does it turn your hand the color of the puddy? I have been working with it myself and it turns my hand orange when i use it.

Oh my god Julie! I hope everything is okay

Oh no!! Hope you heal quickly from your fall. I have been married 30 years and can't imagine not being with him. My heart hurts for you that forever maybe isn't in your future. It doesn't seem fair that you have no say in that, but I know that's how it usually is. Keep your faith strong.

Have you had it x rayed? I had a plate in my collarbone and just banged it into a doorway and the plate snapped

Please get your wrist checked just to check. Better to be safe. Would be good for the surgeon to know and have the whole team to be on the same page

Seriously I was in over my head.

Forgive me for being uneducated, but that is the only reason I ask ... If your marriage is sealed in a temple, and you marry for time and all eternity-----what happens in a situation where a spouse has walked away from their family? Do you still have to be spiritually tied to that person, is there a process for those situations as well? I assume its not a common occurrence but I am sure it happens? You are an amazing woman Julie, raising some pretty terrific kids!!

Well I learned my lessons so many times using a chair by myself. So bought a 3-step ladder or a 4 step ladder. It will helps you a lot and maybe buy two of each because then you can have helped that way by using two ladders at once.

Juile God know your heart he loves you so very much.

Oh my goodness you must take care

Bless you Julie

You can pray from anywhere, you don’t have to be in a church/temple to have your prayers heard.

Congratulations on the baby's dinner home

Hope your wrist is doing good.

I just love your faith Julie. I can't imagine how difficult this must all be even more so now that youve given a bit of backround on how the Church of Latter Day Saints works and views the covenant of marriage. I feel awful that you don't have help there to do the things you need or want done around the house while your still recovering from such a traumatic injury... I wish I lived in Utah so I could help you... I have a 14 year old daughter who is amazing with children and I could help you with whatever you may need help with... I have grown to just love your family and want do what I can to help. I hope that you continue to recover emotionally, physically and in whatever other way you need to along with the kids. Thank you for sharing your life with us, I continue to pray for you all on a regular basis. Lots of love to you all.

As a tree falleth, so shall it lie. Once your dead, you’re dead. There’s no changing the soul after that. If or when we sin, we have an advocate with the Father. We don’t have to go into temples and pray, we can go boldly to the throne of God, where His grace is sufficient for us. NONE of us are worthy, but He loves us and gave His life for us anyways. I’m thankful for the goodness of Jesus and thankful for His mercies which are new each morning. Great is HIS faithfulness and His truth can be found in the Bible alone. Seek Him while He may be found, He stands at the door knocking. ❤️

Please go and get the wrist reviewed again. It is not uncommon to reinsure and break the bone even can break the plat. It may have shifted. You may need to immobilise it in splint again as it was still healing.please call yr doctor to get a review xray

Oh Nooo I hope you're OK, you plz be careful. I need a Vacation I would love to come help out. Julie you can't take on all this alone Alex Need to come and help out with driving the kiddos around or even just letting you get a breather so you can relax a few hrs a day or a few days a week, some men think when they divorce the mom they divorce the Kids which isn't RIGHT AT ALL I WOULD BE ON HIS BUTT LIKE WHITE ON RICE JULIE YOU DESERVE THE BEST & SO DOES THOSE BABIES⚘👑⚘👑⚘

Julie please let your children know it's okay to call for help, whether it's 911/neighbor/family member. You could have suffered a traumatic injury, and time is very much of the essence. It's important to have a medical emergency plan in place, and put it where the kids can find it. Feel better.

I fell a few months after I am had knee surgery to have my knee replaced and I was walking on the grass and on the cement Square thing and I lost my balance and fell on the side of my knee and I caught myself with my hand you know your hands go out when you fall well I pulled my thumb got pulled way out away from my fingers and I injured the collateral ligament in my thumb. Well I went along for a few days and and put ice on it and all this stuff and I got to looking at it and I'm like wait a minute I compared it to the other some and I said wait a minute this doesn't look right. So I went in to the doctor and had it x-rayed and everything and they sent me for a CT scan well yeah I had pulled the collateral ligament. And I had to have surgery to fix it so don't take it for granted that you didn't break your wrist or your thumb just go have an x-ray to make sure that you didn't pull something out of place. Please.

Does Alex get banned from the temple for leaving his family and not loving his wife anymore?

Just remember Julie you didn’t walk away from your marriage it was Alex. You will be forgiven in your church.

I have fallen before on a wrist with hardware. You probably broke up some scar tissue. Keep moving your wrist because ice is your friend right now. I would let the doctor know as well. Be careful.

Why didn’t Adana call for help instead of running around the house with the camera? She could have called a neighbor to come help her mom after she fell.

Adana go and get neighbour!! Call grandma. Julie have you instructed your kids how to call 911 and where to go get help if something happens or they home alone?
