I am reaching energy levels of 50% of normal. This is amazing. I have not had this much energy since 2008.
This means I can be up and cleaning, cooking, doing laundry, homeschooling, etc. for about 4 hours a day, 6 days a week (unless things go wrong, like wildfire smoke or a cold/virus). I can be up and working on computer another 4 hours a day in addition.
I kind of expect my healing to progress a bit more slowly now, as my body works hard to heal everything that has been damaged, but who knows.
The set-backs the last few months (mainly medical supply chemicals and sometimes wildfires) have hit my digestion most. It’s hard to go backward in symptoms and tolerance of good food (like vegetables), but I’m getting there again. And looking forward to a freezer full of garden veggies and a house full of garden pumpkins and winter squash.
I think the medical supplies, even as hard as we tried to minimize exposure, also slowed my energy progress from what otherwise might have happened, especially because it also affected my sleep and heart quite a bit.
But, I am getting back to where I was in early July regarding these things, and WOW 50% of normal is a huge increase from 5% of normal 9 months ago.
Once again we want to express grateful thanks to all who helped make this house possible, for me to get a life back, for our kids to have their mom back.

Christa, I’m so happy for you, that you have access to all that fresh air. I’m praying that the smell from the plastic in the dishwasher soon goes, so that’s one less thing to get anxious about, and your energy level increases day by day. Love you.
Thank you so much!!! Oh, yes, one less thing to deal with will be fantastic! Hugs!!! <3
Thinking of you Christa. I just can’t imagine how difficult it must be for you and your family. I’m so sorry. I’m praying for courage and strength for you all, especially our Father’s comfort for you in your pain. Soon, soon. In Jesus’ precious Name. Amen.
Thank you for your very kind words!!! It has been a challenge for sure. I love your prayer for us–courage, strength, comfort. We just need to keep going, keep following God. The road is long, but the Jesus has been with us the whole way, even when it didn’t “feel like it.” Thank you so much, and I’m praying for you, too!!!
Father, please bless Christa and all in her home today with relief from all ailments. Amen.
