3 months since surgery

Today marks 3 months since surgery! I am beyond grateful & thankful to God for the improvements in my health. I only wish I had done it sooner! 

I have been asked how I am feeling, how I am doing, and what has improved since October 9th, 2012...and there is so much!  In a nutshell, I am feeling tremendously better!!!  I am doing as well as I can be, if not better than I expected.  I have improved dramatically in the area of sleep, bleeding and pain.  Am I now living in a perfect body?  No.  Do I still have pain?  Yes.  Pain like I had before?  Absolutely not!  Do I still have struggles with my health?  Yes.  I still have allergies.  I still have disease.  I still have hormone battles.  I still have workaholic tendencies that creates stress on my body.  However, the health issues I am facing are not of the magnitude or degree I had previously been facing day in and day out, that was totally draining my body of any energy, zapping my will fight to live and a care to want to on top of exhaustion from an inability to get rest.  The difference is dramatic!  So much so that both people who have not seen me in a long and those that see me regularly have commented on the difference. They state that I just look more alive and radiant.  I have to agree.

Special Love and Thanks to all my friends who prayed for me...checked on me...and helped me along the way.

in Christ alone

Dear Lord, please forgive me when I put my hope in people, position or possessions. I ask for the strength & faith to trust you and know you alone are my hope and salvation. Amen.
