Reminder

Hello All. Well an update on my weird health issues. First, I am reminded that I am not in control of my life. Someone much greater and wiser than I directs my life and it is up to me to accept his guidence or not. Needless to say the big guy and I had a lot of talks this last week and I trust he will take care of me. I did learn a greater understanding for people who feel they have a loss of control and how awful that can be. I know a gal from my high school who is my same age and fighting cancer. Very sad situation. Or my grandma who doesn't want to live at an assisted living and wants to return home to the farm but doesn't feel she has a choice in the matter. Now my situation is obviously at a much smaller scale than these two however it did make me think about them several times throughout this week. It is an hopeless feeling to not be in control - but - thank goodness our Lord and Savior has it all under control and if we trust in him, life will work out. Amen.

#2 When the doc's say it takes about 7 to 10 days to recover from hives, they actually know what they are talking about. And even though I like to think of myself as having some super power and that of course "I" will be the exception and heal in like 3 days that is the farthest thing from the truth. My body is an average body and heals at exactly the speed the doc's predict. After all I guess they did go to school for 8 years learning and studying the human body so they actually do know what they are talking about. I thank the Lord for good doctor's and nurses in this world.

#3 I am reminded how fortunate I am to have a wonderful family. As mentioned in my last post my family has been so so so supportive and wonderful. I love you all.

#4 I am thankful for the wonderful place I work, Pathstone Living. They too have been so supportive of me taking an unexpected week off work and wishing for me to have a good recovery. Thank you to my amazing team members and supervisor. You all are great and I couldn't ask for a better place to work.
