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 525

Sorry it has been so long. I am having some serious medical problems that the doctors are not taking very serious. My home health nurse was very upset when she heard what I was going through but my GI still just wants to put in a peg tube. One of the top Gastroparesis doctors told me years ago I was not a good canidate for a peg because I have no motility in my stomach or small bowel. I know this is pretty serious because I have been throwing up "coffee grounds" basically blood and stomach and esophagus lining. I have also lost 15lbs in a week and a half. I want to get this unnecessary weight off but I know that much that fast is not healthy. My nurse was concerned how pale I was and that my blood pressure that usually runs low was high and my pulse was high. If I just go to the hospital here I know they won't do anything. 
Tomorrow is Wednesday the 25th and I know with every fiber of my being that God's blessings are going to be poured out on our family. I can't wait to share as our cup will run over. Our family is so blessed and we will never take for granted all of the blessings God has and will bestow upon us.

Day 505

I know I haven't posted in a while. The condition I am in at this point is going to take some time to get over. It feels like someone took a cheese grater to the inside of my esophagus, stomach, and intestines. I hope there is no irriputable damage but I am on the right track to get this latest problem solved, like I said it is going to take some time to heal that. 
Noah is working as a lumberjack and a youth director this summer. The youth director I can see and I know he is young and strong and this hard labor will be good for him but it does scare me because he is just so brilliant, but I know God won't allow any harm to come to him.
I think Hope is enjoying her summer and I know Elijah is. He has friends coming and going all day. All of them are ready for the pool. 
I still believe with all my heart God has a plan for me. Right now it is to be here and enjoy my family, but He has blessed me with so many different talents and I know that soon I will be able to put them to good use.
