Livin' with Fibromyalgia

Give it to him!!!!!! Life is Good at the Beach ( Casting all my Cares to the Lord) Casting all my cares to him because he cares for me.... My angels " Gabby and Kayla Captures for the Ocean: Sea Shells He was enjoying the Beach as Well: Early morning walks with his master, not a care in the world More Sea Shells from the Ocean! Others on the Morning Stroll of the Shore line At the Arquarium{Ripley's} I see you looking at me! One of our places that we visited while in Myrtle Beach..... Me having a little fun in the Mouth of the Oyster Display! The Ferris Wheel{AKA SkyWheel...due to the height and size.....} Sea shells Everywhere!!!!! Together for 4-ever......even miles away we are always connected! All is Well, if I must say so my self.    I am back home from my much needed vacation.  It was a good time of refreshing....I was able to see a lot and do somethings that I wanted to.  I...

Today I had a war with my body and my mind on whether to give in to how I was feeling or to keep moving.   There are really very few days that I am not in the press.   I refuse to Quit!....Sometimes, it is hard not to just lay in the bed/couch and not do anything.    I was determined to enjoy my vacation with the Ladies at Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.  This has been a very good trip here at the beach and I refuse not to enjoy this time.   I really appreciate God for allowing this opportunity to see this part of his earth.  The beach is so awesome to see.  It looks as if the ocean is never ending almost as if the cloud and the ocean meet each other... I have been able to get some rest that I hope will help me to feel some better as in the days to come.  We have just a few more days here at the beach and I plan to soak up a lil bit more of the sun while I am here.   I remind myself that ...

Remember to look for the happy moments in life and cherish them..  No matter how things look or how you feel.  .My children always do something to make me smile.... LIVE, LOVE, LAUGH! you will feel better!

One day at a time....everyday is a new opportunity for me to beat the "Fibro Madness" by just simply gettig up and taking  a step I am besting the odds that are against me. I pray to God to give me a release and I am trusting that he will.  I have no greater desire than to not feel pain over the my body.  I went to the doctor recently and reminded that I had Chronic Anemia and was informed that a I was going to need to have some iron due to the fact that my levels were LOW.  Well due to my condition, I can not take iron by mouth because of the side effects that make me ill.  So, I have to do Iron Infusions that usually last 3-4 hours.   On the past two Friday's I have had to spend my days at the hematology clinic getting iron infusions. Lot of think to think and pray and sleep....As I am thinking, I ask why I am I here....I see some very sick people while I sit and go through the process.  Some are like me others are dealing with the big "C" ...

I would like to share my notes from the first service of today. God is using our Bishop mightly to help us to build our faith to prepare us to deal with the attacks that are here and to come. No matter what it looks like we can not allow the attacks of the enemy to discourage us. His plan is to break us down and take our focus off off the assignment that has been placed on our lives. If we are so focused on our what is going on in our lives there is no way we are concerned about the lost soul or that person that needs to know how to get over there situation. I Also heard another word today at the second service....reactivate your faith.. Keeping your faith strong is the key to dealing with any situation. I know that I have been attacked in my body( fibromyalgia, high blood pressure, asthma, chronic anenmia, osteoarithritis, degenarative arithritis,and so on ...)but trusting God daily for my healing and the lessons that I am hearing are helping me to get through the low times ...

I must say that I was honored to be able to see my nieces and nephew run behind the soccer ball.   These are some of the most joyful children that I know.  It was truly a pleasure to spend time with them and my brother.  My niece Kiresten was just as excited as I was to be there.   She saw me first and may sure her brother JJ saw me as Hayley was already in the game and very focused.  I had to press my way just to show them that I am proud of them as they learn team work and improved cooperation and sportsmanship. I think that all children need such a program.  This was good for me to be out with the children today.  Learning to enjoy the small things....Live, Love and Laugh. Now home trying to prepare for the the extended day that we have set for tomorrow.  I am already preparing myself for a Blessed time in the Lord and "Making myself Believe" that I will have a good day no matter what it looks like or how...

Been away for a while, but still standing. I have had some not so good days. I will not complain because it could be Worse...I have to be thankful for the relief that I do get and believe that there are more good days In my future. God has been good to me to this point and I know he wouldn't bring me to this point and leave Me. I have certatinly realized that I have to keep limitations because my body just can not handle being Pushed to the limit. I know at times, it is hard to say no because those around me don't understand. I guess that is I to be expected since there is so much that I don't understand myself. I pray to God for the strength to keep Standing....I know what I am about to say may seem a little crazy, but the truth will set you free. I sometimes would like a diagnosis that is more common...why do I say that, well maybe the doctors would know what to do instead of trying to feed me another type of pill...the side effects of some of the medica...
