Wow! Can you believe that we are already in the month of August!
Where has the time past? I can't believe that summer is almost over and the girls will be going back to college soon! Jazz will be a junior in High School and Isaiah an eighth grader! OMG! I'll be starting my 2nd year of the doctorate's program. Holy Moly!
We spent the weekend with Kyle and he again didn't want to go home. :-( Poor guy! He had a lot of fun with the kids at church. He loves playing games and watching movies! He's so cute! He is a funny little guy!
Okay, my feet are still swollen and I don't know why? Any suggestions? The last time my feet were this bad was when I was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis......
Hmmm...Thought to ponder I suppose!
Okay, Have a Great week! As always, continue to pray for me and I will continue to pray for you!
God Bless.

About Me Continued...
I'm that lady that has so much education that I'm still not done. You know, I have a Master's Degree in Special Education, a Master's Degree in Educational Administration and I'm getting my Doctorate's in Educational Leadership. You know the one that people always ask, "how do you manage with all those kids and working and going to school?" and I always reply, "God is good and He gave me a great husband."I'm the one who quit smoking, on December 31st, 2005. You know me, I'm the one who has been diagnosed with an autoimmune disease last year called: Rheumatoid Arthritis. Remember? It's me, the one who asks that you keep praying that God gives me the strength to make it through each and everyday. The one who asks that you pray for my husband and my children that are going through this disease with me. It's me, the one who knows that life is too short and trying to live each and every moment the best way I can. I hope that as I write these words, I can answer who I am. From the words of someone who has already lost their battle with an autoimmune disease, "I believe that, as a culture, we shy away from anything surrounding death and, consequently, deprive ourselves of all the lessons inherent in the dying and grieving process. We ignore the reality that death is as much a part of life as birth." I hope that my posts cover the gamut of human emotions because, as a Puerto Rican, I have always had a "rich" emotional life. While many posts are sad just as many are comical. This is not my version of "The Last Lecture." It is my heart, my thoughts, my joys, and my fears as they unfold along this journey. My hope is that you will find some of it useful on your own life's journey. I hope that sharing my experiences will help not only those struggling with life threatening illnesses, debilitating diseases but also to those who are blessed with their health as well. God Bless you and no matter what happens on this journey, know that I will always keep you in my heart and in my prayers.
