Not Feeling So Great

I haven't been feeling that great this past week. Actually this cold/infection has been lingering now for about 2 weeks. It's been frustrating because earlier this week, I thought I was on the mend and so I went about my normal activities and we even had friends over for dinner on Tuesday and then Wednesday, things just started going downhill.... I was up Wednesday and Thursday night with hemoptysis, which is always scary for me. It didn't help that from Thursday til today, I'm not in my own house, I have been staying with my parents as Jim is at a mandatory work conference. It's one thing to feel lousy but it's another thing to feel lousy and not be able to get the sleep you need and not even be in your own bed. Thankfully, after a phone call to my doctor, and some new medicine, I was able to sleep last night without hemoptysis and even got a little exercise today. So hopefully, I AM on the mend now and I just hope that my lungs feel stronger and stronger each day. I have my cf clinic appointment scheduled for Feb 9th so I am hoping to not have to go to the doctor til then. It's during these times that I catch myself relying on 'me' way to much and thinking to myself 'what else could I be doing?' instead of trusting in the healing power of God. I am doing everything I can possibly do right now, I'm taking my medicines, doing my treatments, resting and exercising when I can. I need to leave the rest up to Him.
