Last week Wednesday I found myself in the ER due to a sharp pain that went from by back to my chest on my left side. I immediately drove myself to the hospital and upon my arrival my blood pressure was 203/115(not good at all) I spent the next 6 hours being poked, tested, and questioned to find out why my body was acting like it didn’t know it was relatively healthy. Lol
While I was in my room I had time to think about what matters most in my life (My children, my friends, etc) and how much God has blessed me.
Life can change in an instant.
Someone once said “All we have is today” but I say “all we have is right now”. Now is the time to forgive. Now is the time to take care of yourself, then take care of others. Now is the time to be at peace with your past and embrace your future. Now is the time to live.
I was sent home with some medication, a day off, and instructions to follow up with my doctor. As of right now I feel fine and I’m following directions from my Dr. I believe it’s time for me to take care of me a little better. I thank God for what happened because it made me see that all I have is right now.
Much love,
