    Spent a Week Under a Rock

    October 17, 2011 |

    At the risk of sounding like a slacker, this last week was a rough week and I wasn’t feeling a blog post for the sake of a blog post. I was debating even telling you this, BUT! I don’t feel like I can jump right into regular posting like nothing happened.

    My leg/skin thing felt like it got worse. My legs look I got attacked by a zombie (no joke – it’s gross), and every step I took felt like my legs were on fire and being stabbed with pins.

    Doug took the week off, so I spent the week (minus time at work) in bed or on the couch and in a ton of pain. I went to the doctor again, he’s trying different treatments, but we’re limited as to what I can take at 28 weeks pregnant.

    If you would have talked to me Monday through Thursday, I would have convinced you the world was ending and I would be living with fire legs and zombie bites for the rest of my life. And you probably would have seen me crying. A lot.

    But after the last few days, I’m in a LOT less pain. While it still crazy hurts to stand in one spot, I can walk, and I’m noticing a huge improvement. My zombie bites/leg ulcers are starting to look like they’re healing over. We’ve also been eating a lot differently, and I feel like that’s helped a lot too.

    I’m feeling a lot better than I was at the beginning of the week, I feel like myself again emotionally and mentally. If you could just say quick prayer or send a good thought my way, I’d greatly appreciate it. I’ll be praying for you too. 🙂

    thanks for reading our feed, please stop by the house for a visit sometime soon. 🙂

      That sounds so awful! I hope you get better quickly! It's crazy how even what you eat can affect things like that. Fell better!BekahIf Work Permits

      Saying a prayer for you. How awful 🙁 I saw your comment about eating better just as I was going to suggest eating lots of good fats like coconut oil, olive oil, pure butter, avocado, etc to moisturize from within. I'm so sorry mama!

      Oh Bless you heart, it doesn't sound like a good week at all. I am so happy you are feeling a little better. The pics of the children are so precious. Such cuties. I will remember you in pray. Hope the Lord sends a special healing to you very soon. Hugs, Marty
