It's been awhile

I know I am a real big slacker! I really do have an excuse this time. I have been sick. I have been to the ER, blood work after blood work, an radioactive test and everything else under the sun. I started noticing my heart skipping beats everyone once in a while and then last Friday is when it hit me like o ton of bricks. I called Matt to come home and help me with little man and maybe I could lay down for a little while to see if that would help relieve some pressure on my back. Well finally Saturday after laying in bed all day and running 102 fever Matt finally said we had to go to the ER. While waiting 3 hours to see a doctor the conclusion was a severe kidney infection and a thyroid problem. So now after all kinds of testing I am on meds to hopefully fix the problem. If anyone out there has had thyroid problem please help! This is no fun (except the loosing weight part) and I need support from someone who has had issues with this before.

Caroline,
I found your blog through Becky's. I was reading your health issues and they sound similar to what a friend of mine is going through. She's had dizzy spells and heart issues. They finally put her on thyroid medication and she feels slightly better, but she's also at a loss for what is really wrong. I'll remember to pray for you when I pray for her.

Glad to see you're doing well otherwise!

Hey Caroline! I'm sorry to see you're not feeling well. I hope you get everything straightened out soon. I'll keep you in my prayers. Jack is precious! His hair has really grown since I saw him last. He's gonna be a heartbreaker for sure with that kind of hair! haha. Hope you feel better soon!

Caroline! How fun is finding someone through these blogs!! It is so good to hear from you. Your family is just so precious and you look so happy! I cannot believe you have a son that is 1! He is absolutely adorable! I can't wait to see what it is like to have a son. I hope you start feeling better. I will put you on our prayer list at our girls Bible study. Bless your heart! I'm so glad you wrote to me! Keep in touch!
