    longest run-on post ever…

    Remember all the talk and prayer needed for a functioning shunt? Here’s why we needed that miracle to work:

    Cat scan #9
    see the flat titanium plate on top? Cool beans.
     Cat scan/ MRI #10 (a week later)


    Yep. The little dent/ bump on top was the exit route for the CSF. The black space on top of my brain is fluid smashing my brain. Not like I have that much to work with anyway, but, ya know. I would like to salvage whatever brain power I have.
    Back to why I posted- results!!! You all have so kind to ask. The very expensive nuclear 4 day test I took last week, (I pray we don’t have to pay for), showed the shunt IS working!!! No more leaky-leaky. Thank you praying friends! Wow. Overcome with gratitude. What a perfectly answered prayer. This means I am home for good, Lord willing. The next big hurdle is figuring out what we can do with this remnant:

    Oopsie. Well; only a week behind. I gave you fair warning, I am flaky. Speaking of, lets move on to the NON flaky people in my life whom I love.
    Today I am thankful for the friendships I have in my life. I have the BEST friends who know me and still love me, who encourage me and continue to show love in all sorts of fun ways. I love my girls and am so blessed by each lady God has providentially placed into my little life.

    Day 16

    Thankful for my little people. They are the best gift I have ever been given. What a priviledge it is to be their mommy. (most of the time).  I am even thankful for the revelation that with them I am a hot mess, and with out them, I am an even hotter mess. They are my humble pie, and they have taught me the invaluable lesson that as together as I may think I have it, we are only 2 temper tantrums away from dropping them off  at a fire station and surrendering to unfit parenthood.  I love lil Stink and Weeman more than any blog post could ever let on-they are my fountain of joy!

  • Day 15

    Thankful for my job/ career. I wear 2 hats: Mom and employee. I could not be more blessed with a better job, (or boss), and love that I have a boss who cares about my kids, and allows me so much flexibility. I enjoy going to work, and love the people I share an office with. God is good!!!

  • Day 14

    I am thankful for our church. I luuuuuurve my church. Compass has been so much more than anything words can describe. I have found a family, and great friends. Most of all God has used Pastor Mike to help me understand the Bible in such an incredible way. Through God’s grace, I have totally fallen in love with God’s Word and am thankful to be so well fed and growing.  Thankful for my salvation, and thankful for friends who aren’t afraid to sharpen my iron;)
