They found bleeding in my brain

Who would have thought that a simple headache would become a serious health problem ? In the case of businesswoman Roseli de Almeida Lopes , pain was indicative of a serious problem that nearly led her to death . The headaches seemed common , until the day she felt a different problem . “ I moved my arm and felt something very strange . It was as if inside my head something was loose . It was painful , “ she says .
From that moment on , Roseli had joined meetings at the UCKG . “ I knew I needed divine help and would have to put my problem in God ’ s hands ,” she says . Roseli underwent the medical procedure . The surgery was successful and the doctor was surprised by her recovery , which was very fast . There was a high rate of paralysis on one side of her face after the surgery but it didn ’ t happen to her .
Roseli took a painkiller , as usual , but the pain persisted . Her husband brought her to the hospital and after being treated she was directed to go home . However , the pain came back the next day . The drugs she was taking were no longer effective and Roseli spent 15 days going to the hospital to take stronger medications . Because of the severe pain , she stopped working . She spent all day in a dark room , pressing her head with her hand to relieve the pain . “ I was going crazy with the pain and I didn ’ t know what to do ,” she says . A month later , Roseli woke up feeling a sharp pain in her chest . Then she lost her voice . “ When I realized that my voice would not come out , I was desperate , only asking God for help ,” she says .
Roseli went back to the hospital and demanded the doctors to tell her what was really going on . She underwent a CT scan , and they found bleeding in her brain . “ The doctors called my husband and informed that I would have to undergo a high-risk surgery , it was brain aneurysm . They reported that this was a problem from birth and that the surgery was delicate and could leave abnormalities “ she says .
Faith and determination were absolutely necessary for Roseli to survive . “ I sought God , for only He could perform this miracle . Every meeting I received a word of encouragement and faith . Today I am healed , “ said the businesswoman .
