https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bMQHTdQrSg8This is my journey as a "fearfully and wonderfully made" girl, living with Mast Cell Activation Syndrome, Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, Dystonia, and Autonomic Dysfunction. I have allergic type reactions to perfumes, fragrances, lotions, colognes, chemicals, cleaners, food (including the smell), sunshine, extreme heat/cold, altitude change, and much more. I often say I'm "allergic to life"! I have both a G and a J feeding tube to supply my nutrition and drain my stomach and a Hickman line through which I get IV Benadryl pumped continuously into my veins via a CADD pump to keep my severe reactions to a minimum. My life is full of doctor appointments, hospital admissions, procedures, medications, reactions, and pain. Life isn't easy, but I know my Lord is with me each step of the way. I know He has a purpose for this journey and a plan for my life. I enjoy playing the trumpet, classical & Christmas music, photography, laughing, bright colors, fun socks, and zebra stripes.
"God didn't promise days without pain, laughter without sorrow, or sun without rain, but He did promise strength for the day, comfort for the tears, and light for the way. If God brings you to it, He will bring you through it." {unknown}
