  In the last post I told you that I was having blood tests done to figure out what all my symptoms are from.  All the tests came back normal so I went back to talk to my doctor and he basically told me that I'm depressed.  That scared me.  For so long I've always correlated depression with Spiritual problems and people who are a not quite right in the head.  I told him I didn't want to start on an anti-depressant first thing so he said lets try focusing on the sleeping difficulties and put me on Rozerem for that.  It works like Melatonin and just settles your mind so you can sleep.  It does not knock you out.  The first couple of nights I fell asleep pretty well, but still woke up between 3-4 and never went back to sleep properly.  Last night I didn't even fall asleep until 5 am and our alarm goes off at 6.  It got me to thinking more about following my doctors suggestion, and after talking to some people I realize depression is actually a chemical problem in the brain that can affect the Spiritual side of things as well as physical, emotional, and mental aspects of life.  Tomorrow I will be going back to my doctor to talk about starting on a medication for it.  I would be very excited if it helped.  I will keep you updated.

 Until next time... 

  Thank you Lord for bringing Mom through the last 8 months.  It was a difficult path for her to take...even the whole family, but especially her.  We haven't always appreciated her like we should, but we all know that she is so important to us and our families.  We love her so much.  Thank you for bringing her through the chemo treatments as well as the radiation treatments.  Thank you for minimizing her side effects and even impressing the doctors with how well she did.  Thank you for giving her the strength to get through each day especially the days she had to travel into town every day to get the treatments.  Thank you for giving Dad and Catie to her to support her and be there for her when the rest of us couldn't be there.  I so appreciate them.  But Lord, even more than all of that, THANK YOU for prolonging her life and allowing her to be here a while longer to be a wife, mom, sister, and grandma.  Amen.

WE LOVE YOU MOM
