Hectic Times

10/21/2013

Goodness, I haven't updated in quite some time. Things have been rather hectic in our household & with me lately. Most noteably our dog of 17 years went missing a week ago. Anyone who knows me well knows I love Dogs more than most anything. Well, all animals really. I have a deep love for our pets, and when he went missing it took a piece of my heart. I have been a wreck emotionally, mostly from the fact that my body prevents me from doing what I want to do, which is search 24 hours a day. I hate that I am so helpless & it hurts me that our sweet elderly dog is out there alone & scared. My parents have been great in search efforts, but they work full time, so there is only so much they can get accomplished. This situation has really reminded me of my limits, as I have pushed myself & it resulted in my whole body crashing. But I just pray that he returns home safe & sound...

In other news, insomnia & fatigue have been at all time highs. I have days where I am so over tired that my whole body hurts, but yet I still can't fall into a deep sleep. I'm not sure what is the culprit with that, but it's been quite a few weeks now. But in other ways I feel much better. I'm scared to jinx it by going into too much detail, but it's nice to see improvement even if other areas have slipped.
Visual Therapy is going very slow. I have actually taken days off more frequently lately during times when my fatigue is too intense. It's frustrating to feel like I'm getting behind, but as I've learned many times I must do things at the pace of my body. Can't fight it too much.

All in all I have to say I'm thankful for the many wonderful improvements & I pray that God grants me the patience to get through this fatigue funk that I have been in. It always gets better.

Xoxo,
Christina

Sorry you've been feeling so bad - figured since you hadn't posted a blog for a while, you weren't feeling up to it. Praying you'll feel better soon.
Also, sorry about your family's dog disappearance. They say sometimes they just want to go die by themselves but hope that isn't the case.
Tell your Mom & Dad we keep praying for them, too. We miss them!

Hi Carolyn thank you so much! We searched all over our home for hours & didn't find him, but I hope & pray that we recover him! I will let my parents know, thank you for always praying :)
