Out of Commission

I've been taking pictures of things thinking that I will blog about them, and I haven't been blogging. I was looking through my camera tonight and realized just how many different posts I need to do to catch up. So, I'm going to do as many as I can as soon as I find the cord to download all of my pictures to the computer. Ugghh!!! Get ready for some blog post overload!



First of all, I will tell you that this past week has been HARD for me. It deals with a lot of personal stuff that I don't want to post here. I will tell you that it involved a lot of PAIN resulting in a trip to the emergency room, prescriptions for vicodin and phenergan and lots of sleeping!!! Needless to say I have been a little out of commission this week. I went to my OB/GYN this afternoon and was diagnosed with endometriosis or adenomyosis. We will be trying a progesterone therapy for a few months. If this works, we will continue until it stops working or until I go through menopause (this should be a long time). If this does not work, we will be doing a hysterectomy. This is something else you guys can be praying about.

I am sorry to hear that you are having these kinds of problems. I am glad that you had kids young so that you were able to do it before this came up. That is quite a blessing! In these hard times, I love to read blogs asking for prayers because it shows that you can be faithful in the tough times as well as the easy.
