Things are going well. I'm still wearing the heart monitor and have an MRI on Friday. In June I have to do a 24-hour EEG; basically I have to wear a helmet that has electrodes that connects to my head. There will be no pictures!!!! I have to be "episode-free" for 3 months before I can drive again. This is the hardest part for me; I am an on-the-go woman and it's killing me! Vince has been driving me around town; I know he hates it, but he's been a trooper through all the errands!
We're still not sure what's going on with me, but the doctors think that whatever it is that it's stress-based. Because of this I've really cut back on my commitments at work and church. So what am I doing with all my extra time? Honestly, the first thing I'm doing is getting back into the habit of spending time with God. I was living life at such a high speed that I allowed my priorities to get all screwed up. I barely had time to breathe, let alone read my Bible and spend time talking to God. I knew the importance of it, but kept putting it off. "Inconsistent" would be the best word to describe my relationship with God.
Because of my lack of commitment to God, other areas of my life started deteriorating. I'm really thankful that God allowed these fainting episodes to happen; it really forced me to take a hard look at my life and see where I was failing. The sad part is that I'm not sure I would have made the changes on my own; without God putting this huge boulder in my way I would probably still be living my life at a dangerous pace.
So how are you? How is your relationship with God? Are you setting aside time to read the Bible and pray? What could you change to make it your main priority of each day?
