Favorite Quotation

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
...Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.
We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?
Actually, who are you not to be?
You are a child of God.
Your playing small does not serve the world.
There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you.
We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us.
It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone.
And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others." -Marianne Williamson

The wait....

The first week after I was told my results were spent looking at the possibilities of what I had and what it could amount to. I researched all the reliable sites that I could find. I went to class and ignored my readings and homework for my classes because I wanted to know I could about what was going on.

I started to eat 4 to 6 times a day to help with the hypoglycemia. Everything else I was just waited and learned about. I found myself getting sick, I believe that I went a month with being sick at least once a week. It didn't always keep me from doing things but it was annoying not feeling well and I didn't want to go out and have "fun." I just wanted to be lazy and sleep. I felt better after a while and didn't get sick for maybe another month.

I didn't feel 100 percent but I started to take daily vitamins and this helped... I started to live.. I did things but I would usually come back about once a day and think about what was going on. Just looked up more information and started to focus more on my homework.

As this month went on I started to get more and more tired. I was rarely getting hungry when it was time to eat. I wasn't getting sick though so I just kept trucking on. On October 9th I got a cold, a normal cough, some of my roommates had the same cough. They woke up the next morning and they were just fine. I however got worse, and worse, and worse. I had this cold for about a week and a half, on October 20 I went back to the doctors for my cold.

The normal cold had developed into bacterial bronchitis, I was prescribed some antibiotics and a stronger cold medication than what I was taking. We also decided to run another round of thyroid tests. I did the blood work and went to go get my prescription and go to bed to try and get better.
