Thank you everyone for all of your prayers. I really felt a comfort laying in bed yesterday afternoon. I suppose it's hard to describe, but I felt like a sort of peace surrounded me and I knew everything would be alright.
For those who haven't followed very long, I have a kidney disease called IGA Nephropathy, which is an auto immune disorder. It is coupled with a rare pain condition of the kidneys called LPHS (loin pain hematuria syndrome). I have done excellent for close to a year now. I've had a few bad days here and there but nothing like yesterday. I am thankful to be feeling a little better today, but it does appear that my condition may be coming out of remission as my protein loss levels were extremely high yesterday.
Crafting is my therapy and I always make my digis free to encourage others to craft as well. I am an artist at heart and having that outlet has helped me push past the hard days and make something beautiful through all the pain. I like to think that I can somehow learn from what I've gone through and make the world a little better place through the process.
So Scrap HAPPY everybody and have an excellent day!!!
Glad you are feeling better Julie.
