Joy, Joy, Joy!! Well, we are home...the kids were so excited to be home. Though they missed Nana's cozy home, they were truly thrilled to be back in their own cozy beds-Mommy and Daddy too!
Thank you to my Mom who so kindly kept us and served us while we were at her house. It was a wonderful time of much needed rest!
A Quick Update, then a few pictures...Next Post with pics in a few hours...must run errands first...
PRAISE THE LORD!!!!
The medication I was put on is working really well!! I have felt such a difference. Yesterday was the first day where I had a glimpse of energy that I have not felt in years!! I actually felt well enough to begin walking on our treadmill-which I did-but I think I went a little overkill with the daily activities, I was so energized. So today I am tired...I must pace myself.
The way this medication works-basically it is reconnecting the sensors in my brain. The sensors in my brain have been rewired incorrectly throughout pregnancies and/or hormonal changes. They were telling my body to have the symptoms I was experiencing for no reason. My brain was on overload-nonstop. So the medication is a means of grace where it is reconnecting the right pathways for my sensors/neurons. In response to this medication I have slept better, am able to discern what is true or not, whereas before I couldn't quite think or process things through as easily, I am able to think more clearly, as well as making decisions more quickly-in short my brain seems sharper than it has been in years-truly years!!! So praise God!!!
Please continue to pray for faith, strengthening of my body, and not to doubt or fear that I will return to the state I was in before. To have confidence in the Lord for His complete healing!!!!
Thank You-the Lord is answering prayers on my behalf!!!!
"For every fearful peek into the future, I wish I had looked to Christ instead. For each imaginary trouble conjured up, I wish I had recalled the specific, unfailing faithfulness of God. In place of dismay and dread, I wish I had exhibited hope and joy....
forecasting victory, not foreboding defeat"
