When
I prayed to God about what I should blog about today, his answer was my
lymphedema. I smiled and felt at peace with His answer. For the past
week since I blogged about living with lymphedema for the very first time
I have received so much feedback and support.
If
any of my readers remember the show True Life that was on MTV in the
2000’s? If any of you do remember that show, then you already know that
it did inspire this blog post!
I have
been living with lymphedema for the past 10 years. My lymphedema happened from
walking on my left sprained ankle that did not heal properly. The reason why I
was so anxious to start walking on my sprained foot again created the condition. I walked to and from school every weekday.

This was
my very first Mother’s Day and I ended up crying. I cried tears of pure joy and
satisfaction. I was on an extended natural high today. My skin glowed. My smile
was bright, and my heart was full. My husband of now 4 ½ years had treated me
to The Cheesecake Factory for the very first time. We both had never been to
the restaurant in our lives. It was a new and refreshing atmosphere to us both.
The food and the service were great, and it felt special.
