Hey Everyone..

Hey Everyone❣️ 

Whew....I have missed all of you this past week... more than you will ever know. 

As I have said many times, life has a way of sweeping us into unexpected adventures.....the kind that keep our bodies still, our hearts learning, and our minds wandering through places we never planned to go.  

Now I'm back with lots of catching up to do, some stories to tell, a little coffee drinking on my schedule, and I am excited to be engaged in the beautiful moments of sharing again. 

Adventures are not always grand and I will admit that my past week was certainly not what I would call grand....But wait, I must tell you that what I thought was not going to a grand adventure turned out to be just that. 

As you all know, I had the heart Cath done on Thursday in Dallas.  I was not expecting any issues to show  during the catheterization....I was wrong!!  While I was lying on that very skinny, hard table...my thoughts were everywhere.  I kept saying to myself "You have this...you have many people praying for you."  Yet...I could feel the very ends of my nerves vibrating.  Soon though...I was in la, la, land.  

I had No idea that a stent that was placed inside my artery just 5 years ago was collapsing.  It was 80 percent collapsed.  YIKES!!  This is where the grand part of my week sneaks in.  

The doctor removed the stent...used a medicated balloon to open the artery (and another type of medication inserted as well) ..and was able to fix this problem. The very thing that was needed to fix my artery was not available at our local hospital which is the reason my doctor sent me to Dallas in the first place.  **I had NO test done prior to my doctor ordering this procedure.   How many people go and have a heart catheterization done without previous test showing the possibility of a issue?  

The journey this past week reminded me that life is made up of tiny wild moments.  I can't help but stand in awe of how God works behind the scenes long before we understand why. What could have been overlooked was discovered right on time.

I love how Grace shows up quietly, favor appears unexpectedly and faith becomes very real when you realize you've been carried through something bigger than yourself. 

I am so excited to catch up with each of you.  

Shug...💜
