The Season Begins….

We made it! After 7 hours in the car we finally made it. It really wasn't as bad as everyone thought it would be for me. We stopped several times allowing my lungs/breathing to try and adjust to the different elevation.  I think because we were traveling to a lower elevation it was not as hard on me. In Utah we are at about 4400 feet elevation and in Nevada we were at 2100 feet. I stayed down and tried not to overdo so that I would be able to make it to both of her lacrosse games tonight.

I was so excited to be able to not have to miss her games. Last year during her Lacrosse season I had to miss so many games after I was just recently diagnosed with this disease. The specialist put me on a high dose of steroids  for an entire month. When I was on these it made my disease so much worse, I was flat down in bed and missed so many games. It broke my heart to not be there last year.

This year I am extremely excited to be able to save up the energy I do have for my children's games. I am determined to not miss a single one this year!

Shaniah did well and was so excited to play her first game of the season. Her team won both games and really enjoyed playing and having fun.

I was so grateful today for:

1. Not flaring or having big problems on the drive to Nevada

2. Being able to watch both of my daughters games today.

3. Going a full day without an adjustment and not having a severe migraine

4. Having the strength and energy to be there for my daughter

5. Proving to myself, my hubby and my daughter that I can do hard thing with the help of the Lord
