6 months! Whoop! Praise the Lord!

So, 6 months ago yesterday, and today (and the next 5 days:), I was laying in a hospital bed learning how to move again. Read about all the cool stuff physically that has happened since then:

-I can walk FAST, run, etc.
-I can sleep normally
-I can do any and all excercises and sleep on the stomach
-I can eat what I want:)
-On a totally unrelated note, I officially do NOT have asthma and never have! Thanks to the amazing Dr. Bacak, we discovered that I've been misdiagnosed for the last 5 years...so instead of $130 a month on meds I don't need and that don't work, I am on one amazing little pill...and I've NEVER felt better! God is a miracle worker for sure...nothing is too hard for him (Lk 1:37).
-I can climb, boulder, backpack, hike, rappel
-I can sit on the floor again and not in a soft chair all the time (but I do like those)
-I no longer have to carry my pillow for back support
-I am no longer a hunchback unless it's just my bad posture
-My body works better than it has my whole life!

If those aren't things to be excited about, I don't know what is:) The Lord is doing some tight things around this place. I am so thankful to be apart of them. Going back to the basics is a huge lesson in thankfulness. We take so much for granted.
