Day to Day

2 Chronicles 20:15    Do not be afraid!  Don’t be discouraged by this mighty army, for the battle is not yours, but God’s.

It’s now Saturday, Jan. 21st, and I apologize for taking so long to continue this blog.  The days here with Lynde and Brad have flown by.  We begin the mornings with Lynde with water and pills, then breakfast and pills, and then more water and pills, and then a snack with pills, then the day continues with pills and more pills and more pills.  Some days are “decent” for Lynde (which means she doesn’t feel well, but she can function), and then some days start off rough and stay rough.  Things can change in a moment with her condition.  Yesterday was a decent day, but turned rough in the evening.  Rough can mean a variety of things.  Neck twitches, a dying feeling, facial twitches, rapid heart palpitations, hands tingly and shaking inside, joints aching, major fatigue, gasping for air, abdominal discomfort, ears ringing, light sensitivity, the list goes on.  Symptoms change from minute to minute too.  Lynde never knows how her body is going to react from one minute to the next.  It’s always very quiet and the lights are kept low in Brad and Lynde’s apartment; this disease has produced an increased sensitivity to sound and light.
