My Reason

My sweet Elijah has used every wish, every prayer, every day to ask for my complete healing. I knew in 2008 because God told me when I first started getting really sick that things were going to get much worse but He would heal me only when His timing is right and He receives the glory for my healing. For those of you that do not know, I have Idiopathic Gastroparesis caused by a genetic condition known as Autonomic Dysfunction. I am currently on IV nutrition through a central line and on several medications. I had a gastric pacer implanted in 2010 to alleviate some of my symptoms and it worked well for 6 months but my nerves quit responding and I finally had it removed this January. In other words it did get much worse. I start this blog now because I know God will not let my baby's faith die.

Day 330

It is a brand new day and it has been a wonderful one. Yesterday, not only was I able to cook a delicious birthday meal for my Noah, but I was able to eat and did not get sick! First day since I can remember. Another reason that was so great is because I have been without my IV nutrition for 3 weeks now, so I have been really hungry. The only reason I have been without is because the company that supplied my TPN and IV meds took that long to discover that they are not in network with my new insurance. Up to this point they have been amazing at getting everything I needed, but they really dropped the ball on this one. Luckily I had some extra IV fluids to keep me from dehydrating so hopefully when I go in for an outpatient surgery on Thursday they can find a vein to start an IV or hopefully use my central line. In the past they have had to stick me up to 12 times to get an IV going so I pray that won't be the case. Today I had energy I haven't had in such a long time. I was able to do some much needed housework, teach Elijah his full lesson, and feel good most of the day. Late this afternoon I started feeling my usual self. That is kind of sad to say, that my usual self is pretty much awful, but I am so thankful for the majority of the day I got to feel like a normal person and enjoy my sweet Elijah!
