Debby...I don't know why but that always seems to be my journey as well...I work hard to be stronger and build up my immune system and start to feel better and like I have more control, and then, wham! I feel like I just took 5 steps backward. I don't know why that happens but it certainly causes us to lean more on His strength instead of our own abilities to build up our bodies. I am praying for you! I will be praying you will be home soon and can enjoy the holidays. In His love, my friend, Love, Linda
