Super tough week...

 Man, this week has been tough, nauseating, and scary. I'm just thankful that I am ok and nothing went seriously wrong when it could have.

Thank you all so much for your love and support!! 

I ask that you please pray for my Lymie friends as well! I have so many friends who are so sick and need a miracle too! Unfortunately, I can't begin to name them all, so I won't even start. God knows when He hears our cries. Praise the Lord for that!!

Happy to be alive....

...more later.

I won! I Won!! I WON!!!

So a while back I entered a little drawing and guess what?? I bet you guessed right, yes, I WON!!
Ok, I know I am ridiculously happy but seriously, how many little drawings have I entered and never won a thing?! Well, to be honest, I haven't entered that many, but still, I almost never win!

This is only the second time I have ever won something. The other time was at a cooking show where I won a cute white platter filled with cookies that they made in the show.  :) ANYWHO, back to this drawing.

Jenny, over at http://baileyandme2.com/ had posted a fun little spring giveaway.

It included:
several cards
gift tags
stickers
chap stick
an adorable can covered in vintage paper
AND my favorite of all,
an awesome scarf!!

I thought I would give you a peek at a little 5 min. photo shoot my sister had with me.

Enjoy!!

Trying not to fall on my face to get this shot! 

Thank you Alisa for these lovely shoes!! They are all I wear out anymore, I LOVE them!! <3 

Thank you Minnie for everything you do for me and also for these pictures. Love you! <3 

The emotional side of living with Lyme...

So I promised a video the other day on the emotional/ mental side of dealing with a chronic illness and more particularly Lyme Disease. 

I've been really depressed lately and haven't really been motivated to do these videos but I had a moment of clear-ish brain waves so I thought I would just go ahead and do it. 

The only reason I'm putting all my thoughts and feelings and personal facts out there on the inter-webs is a hope that it will raise awareness and an understanding towards Lyme Disease.  

Part 1

Sorry, I was foggy and dealing with confusion. Had to take a bit of a break and try to get my thought put together a bit. I hope you all are able to connect it all. 

Also, if you are wondering, that is an absence seizure that I have in about the middle of the video. It was a little weird though, lots of heart palps with it. Its always so weird to see them recorded because I only thought I was having heart palps, I didn't know I was having a little seizure, that is the way the absence ones are. Just glad they aren't grand mals!! 

Part 2

Part 3

                                                 
**I can't get this video to center right. Annoying!

I don't understand why people have to question Lyme Disease so much! People don't question when somebody says they were just diagnosed with cancer. Or MS. Or says they're pregnant! Why do they have question this?? 

Please pray that this depression lifts and that all this stuff will start to clear away. 

Thank you all so much for all your love and support! I really appreciate it!!

Overdue Update...

Hey guys! Sorry for the lack of updates, its just been a really hard month, struggling with symptoms and stuff.

 Hopefully I will be able to do more videos this month since May is Lyme Disease Awareness month!!

Part 1...

Part 2...

Two things I did forget to mention as far as symptoms is I've been having problems with stuttering and my lisp. Today they aren't bad at all, thankfully, but some days the stuttering is ridiculous! 

Thank you all so so much for all your love and support!! 

I will be posting again soon with an update on more the emotional/mental side of living with a chronic, invisible illness, and coming to terms with it all.
