Forgotten

It's been so long since I have blogged, probably due to the fact that we have no working computer. You have to forgive any errors or autocorrect issues. So much has happened in our lives. I had a baby boy a year ago and if I'm not mistaken I've posted pictures of our Walker on here. Well I've had a lot of issues through this last year that led to the need for a hysterectomy. I got to keep one ovary but there was a 3.9 cm cyst on the left overy that was causing so much pain. They removed it and are checking it for cancer. That has been a little unnerving but I'm not thinking about it too much. We got to the bottom of why I haven't felt good for the last year. I was diagnosed with Addison's disease. This means my adrenal glands have just had enough and are not working anymore. So now I get to take steroids to substitute the adrenalin I'm missing. I can't tell if there's a difference yet because I'm still healing from the surgery but time will tell. I've had a lot of help from my relief society at church, they have brought meals and taken kids and helped around the house. I have been discouraged because the friends that I go out of my way to help have been absent. It's hard to feel like you have no one. I guess I've been focusing my energies in the wrong places. I should have been focusing my energy on the people around me that really care. I honestly just feel like shutting myself up in my house and leaving the world to itself. I think this surgery has just really effected me more than I thought it would. I'm trying to deal with big stuff and it's all drama because of the medications I'm on and the adjustment to this disease I have. I'm just overwhelmed.
