The New Old
So so much has changed the past year. Some things changed for good, some things changed for the bad but over all, everything changed for God's glory. When you are in a waiting time in your life and you see God use you in a way that you never thought imaginable, it is a strong encouragement. That is where I am right now. Last May, after multiple strep throat infections and exhaustion, my body just shut down. I could not even get out of bed. I was in the hospital for 8 days, and was finally diagnosed with POTS (Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome). Basically my heart races and I feel exhausted, having done nothing but sit or stand up. Everyone that knows me, knows I think of myself as Xena, the Princess Warrior, and that I have no limits. The truth is, especially with POTS, my body is more like Spongebob Squarepants. I have limits to my body and by learning these boundaries, and making some lifestyle changes, I have been able to come off medication and live with POTS. Prais
