God Doesn't Give You More Than You Can Handle....Right?

SO, again, I know I haven't posted pics...and I promise I will. I have lots to post! Check Facebook for some. :)
But for an update, if you anyone even reads this anymore....ha ha.
Life has been a bumpy road for the last few months. Many of you know I have not been feeling well. I have missed work 3 pretty long stretches and that is quite unusual.
I finally got into my doctor and are starting to get things all worked out.
To summarize what is going on...my uterus/ovaries are not normal. I have had a CT scan that has shown this. And somehow, in some weird way, they are jealous and have decided to pull my intestines in for some fun. Hence the once/month "stomach flu" and leads to many hours on the toilet. As far as them not being normal, I have been told that the CT scan looked as if I have endometerosis and polycystic ovaries. The strange thing is, I had a CT scan last year and it did not show this.
Today, I had to go in for an ultrasound of the uterus/ovaries. I do not know the results...all I know is that the tech said, she got great pictures and it hurt me quite a bit.

I have found out how many people are so caring....my coworkers are amazing...offering to go to appointments with me, etc. My family has been very supportive, I have shed lots of tears in the parent's house this week. I had a very good talk this morning, with my cousin, Melissa...this mad my very hard to face day so much better.

I ask that you could pray for me....I am scared/anxious/nervous of what is to come...I ask that I have some peace and understanding. I have so many swirling questions in my head, I want to ask when I see the doctor next. I have taken the attitude (as of about noon today) of it doesn't matter what anybody else thinks or wants anymore. It is my time to be selfish and take care of my health, my wants and needs in life. I have prayed about this and asked God to watch over me and take care of me....and a strong whisper of God today said, HEY, YOU ARE A STRONG GIRL, DON'T LET THIS STOP WHAT YOU HAVE DESIRED IN LIFE, STAND UP FOR YOURSELF AND DO WHAT YOU NEED. I WILL NOT GIVE YOU SOMETHING YOU CAN'T HANDLE! And then it was confirmed by a super wonderful, caring, and sweet coworker today, who said, "Kelly, I will support you in anything you need, but I can't feel or understand what you are going through, only you can....so YOU need to take care of you. And I will be here when you need the help."
On that note, I am off for the night....I am going to go do something for myself and relax. Thanks for all the love and support.

Grace and Peace.
