They will run and not grow weary...

So...I haven't written on here in a LONG time. Lots has happened since last year at this time and I've toyed with the idea of changing the nature of this blog a little bit. I had a little trouble finding direction for it in the first place and maybe that's why it fizzled out, but I think I've figured out a little bit about that too.

In short, I am 29 and I am exhausted. Not a "oh I'm tired, I think I'll take a nap" kind of tired, but an all the time exhaustion. To many that may seem odd, and it is. You above anyone know your body and if you think something is not quite right, you are probably right. Don't let people think you are crazy or a hypochondriac. I accepted that for years until I gradually got worse and couldn't figure it out. It was quite by accident that my mom, who has similar problems, brought up thyroid issues out of the blue. All the symptoms seemed to fit. Even the weird ones. Things you wouldn't think about being related. Yes, you need your heart, your brain...but your thyroid is major. It pretty much runs everything. If that thing is out of whack, you can bet you are going to be out of whack.

So, this is the start of something new. I'll keep things posted here on the progress of how it's going but it looks like it's going to be a little bit of a long road. It's a relief though to finally be on the track of finding information and not feeling like you are crazy. Don't take things you can do for granted though. I've always wanted to be a runner. It's sad to feel like you would love to run a marathon and you can't even climb the stairs. Fingers crossed on getting there.


Isaiah 40:30-31- Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall;
but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles;

they will run and not grow weary,
they will walk and not be faint.
