I CAN'T BELIEVE I MADE IT TO 35!! For several years now, we have been very uncertain of how many years I had left. I know that no one is guaranteed another day, but there is something about having a terminal illness that makes you acutely aware of each day. And suddenly it stopped being hard to reach another birthday and became a BLESSING!! In fact, I woke up on my birthday wanting to do nothing but spend time praising God for the gift of life and the year of amazing time spent with my loved ones.
To put the icing on the cake (so to speak), my cardiologist informed me this week that my heart function has actually increased in the last 6 months by a good amount. God is good!! She was so impressed by the echo that she actually agreed to sign the medical forms for adoption. Wow!! That was something that Ray and I had been grieving but now God has made it a possibility. He never stops amazing me.
So, to say we are celebrating this season would be an understatement. For the first time in four years, Ray and I are contemplating the future again. All I can do is stand amazed at the way God keeps blessing us. Love to you!
