The GOOD. The BAD. The UGLY.

yayaya…  we’ve all head that saying before…  I know!  But I wanted to share my life with you. Today has been a super rough one.  This last month has been rough. Don’t get me wrong, we’ve had LOTS of good and joy in it all too. Somedays we’re having to try harder to find the good that others and somedays we want to throw in the towel (me today😬)

MY GOOD:

We’re seeing a lot of this country

We’re together as a family

We are growing as a family in each new day

We have a truck and motorhome that run

We are saved by Gods grace

I could continue on and on and on really…

MY BAD:

Im sick

Ive had three ribs out for over a month now and I’m in horrible pain

I can’t sleep with this pain

My ferretin levels are dropping each day as the Babesia bugs eat it as their sole food source

My migraines are increasing again

Im gaining a lot of weight suddenly with no reason and each pound is so discouraging

I hardly have enough hair to keep my extensions in

MY UGLY:

When I’m this sleep deprived and in so much pain I’m not a very patient or sweet wife or mommy

I need to cover my super silvery roots and take my extensions out…  they are about to fall out they’re so long (I don’t have enough energy to take them out, color my hair and put them back in…  Lucy helps me color and install them)

I am having extremely low self esteem between my weight, lack of hair, no energy to work out, and nothing fitting me

There is no funding for a cure for Babesia

There is no insurance coverage for any treatments to help keep me alive

We have to pay for everything up front with cash

Babesia will stop my heart unless we find a cure before then

We need help financially and are hoping that someday we could have insurance that would help to cover these costs so that we can get treatment faster!  Until then we hang onto the Hope we have in Jesus!

That’s a glimpse of just a portion of my days.  The reality is bleak and yet I know my God is bigger and greater and I’m begging Him to heal me!

Thank you for your continued prayers, love and encouragement.  We need you all walking alongside us in this BeautyFULL Mess.

Live IT Out,

Sincerely, Dani
