Home and Doing Well

This was the best sight that I could capture the past few weeks...my empty hospital bed! Most of you don't know this, but the reason I have been away from the blog for a bit is because I just had surgery. I hadn't shared much of what I have been dealing with the past few weeks. It's been a bit of a roller coaster ride, with different tests and things the doctor had me going through. But I'm happy to say, all is well! I did end up having to have surgery which I didn't expect but I'm past it now and on the road to recovery.

I had to have a complete hysterectomy this past Wednesday. This is a very private thing that I've kept to myself and just close friends and family but I felt the need to share it with you, my blog readers. I don't like a lot of drama and so I don't like to share things that may create dramatic situations. I am a person of strong faith and believe that my battles can be fought through my faith in God and in His Word. And that's exactly what we have done. Through the doctors report of possible cancer to the surgery, it has been our faith in God that has helped us get through this time. We are beyond relieved that everything is ok and for that we thank God!

I am so happy that it is behind me now and now I can just get back to enjoying life, even more so now! My creativity seemed to take a back burner during the past few weeks while dealing with this! But now, I'm ready to get busy again and get the creativity flowing! I've still got some time of recuperating but I can't tell you how much better I feel already.

Thanks for sticking by me! FYI, before my surgery I did some major purging (mom said I was "nesting" LOL) so I'm going to be having some giveaways just because I think y'all are so awesome! I also still have to share my October goodness for Elle's Studio so keep checking back!

Have a wonderful Monday! I know I will!

  1. oh my god Sheri!! i feel so strange about what you say! I don't know you but as I read through your post my heart sank, as if you were a friend of mine! i am so happy you are ok and so impressed by your strength. what a lady you are and such an example for me!! so glad you are ok and if God spared you there must be a good reason: probably because you seem to be such a wonderful person.I have been visiting your blog in the past days wondering where you were and wanting to say how much i loved your gallery over at Elles' studio. I would like to try my luck as a DT member there and wanted to ask you for some advice. Maybe I can ask later, when you feel better. have a great recovery day!

  10. Wow Sis!! I read this and cry. I cannot tell you how thankful I am the outcome of the whole ordeal. I was in shock and sometimes still am, from the phone call that came from you telling me what they found. I would not have handled it as good as you did. I KNOW IT!! To you it just seemed like you went in to get your teeth cleaned. I know you shared that Rick had to snap you out of it but seriously, when I hung up with you that day, my head was spinning because it felt like I was dreaming because of how calm you were.
    I love you with all my heart and am sooooo thankful to God for what he has done for you and spared you from any pain or further junk that goes with that diagnosis.
    You are the anchor for our family. I only hope to be like you when I grow up.
    You are one amazing lady!!! God sits proud on His throne looking down at you.
    I love you!!!
