Making it through this life clinging to Jesus, whilst always battling the flesh.
Is there such a thing? Depends on who you ask, I suppose. To me, taking flight amongst adversity means making every attempt to keep your feet firmly planted - all the while making every effort to remain weightless and take flight in faith, despite the cinderblocks of stress, burden and pain that are somehow permanently …
I'm always making an attempt to be that loving whirlwind of sunshine, smiles, and sarcastically humorous girl that so many of you know and love. I just sometimes get tired - and I plummet. I too... weep. Tears, yes. But physically it feels as though my body weeps. I weep with debilitating pain, exhaustion, sadness, …
The year 2020 kinda kicked off with a bang. It goes without saying that many of us have been white knuckling this life ride for the past six months. Some have referred to this year as the Jumanji game, and they're not too far off track. As you very well know - it's basically been …
Since the new year kicked off things have been busy, and not just in my life, but seemingly nationwide and worldwide. It's no secret that we've been battling this Covid chaos, and this pandemic has thrown us all for a loop. Our careers have been put on hold, putting us in financial binds, and the …
I did finally get to meet my newly established neuro-oncologist earlier this month, January 13th. Dell and I had never really had any involvement with Piedmont doctors regarding my seeing specialists, until Dr. Erin Dunbar. Dell's Gastroenterology doctor is within the Piedmont system, and he's been great for Dell. But, as far as me having …
Hi! I know. It's been a minute since you've heard from me. After I healed from the Cryoablation in September, I spent the following two months just living life. For the first time in almost a year, the insane nerve pain was semi quiet. Our assumption was that it was finally the frozen tumors dying, …
I didn't see this coming So let's recap. I left you guys hinged on my "more painful than expected" recovery, post Cryoablation, that last week of September or so. Though the pain never really ever dialed down, I still made the decision to proceed with work Tuesday, October the 1st. I had two appointments that …
fREEZING multiple nERVE TUMORS So Tuesday began with a lot of anxiousness, nervousness, and some mild fear of the unknown. I was more nervous about this procedure than I was for my surgery last year. The crazy thing is, there's really no comparison between the two. The surgery that I had last November left me …
Emotional Whirlwind I think we have all been there. That mental and physical state in which everything seems cataclysmic, unsure, unpredictable. That one last emotional blow that sends your faith spiraling downhill, and you find yourself face to face with the enemy of indifference. You're in this limbo of half numb, and half conscious. You …
From relic to revolution I'm about to embark on a pretty lightly traveled trail. Freezing tumors, instead of resecting them. Cryoablation is essentially a new age, "not even heard of," treatment for nerve tumors. With each day that passes, brings me closer to procedure day. A couple months ago, September 24th seemed so far away, …
