Hey there, dear friends and followers! It's been a while since we connected, and I wanted to take a moment to share what's been happening behind the scenes. Life has a funny way of throwing curveballs, and over the past few weeks, we've been dealing with quite a few unexpected challenges.
Around two weeks ago, our world took a sudden turn. I received the unexpected news that I was dealing with a pulmonary embolism. After a short stay in the hospital, I was put on the appropriate medication and sent home. Just when we thought things were settling down, another wave hit. Chest pain and breathlessness returned, sending us back to the ER. Thankfully, medical evaluations didn't show major concerns, and I was allowed to return home.
However, life had other plans. In the days that followed, I found myself grappling with extreme fatigue, spending most of my time sleeping and only being awake for short periods. Soon, abdominal pain and weakness added to the list of concerns. This prompted yet another visit to the hospital this past Tuesday.
As it turns out, I've been battling not just one, but two challenges simultaneously. The pulmonary embolism persisted, and alongside it, a troublesome UTI emerged. My body was in a tough spot, trying to fight off both issues, which left me feeling drained and fatigued. Unfortunately, another obstacle arose as I developed an allergy to a new antibiotic, further complicating matters.
Throughout this trying period, our family has been navigating uncharted waters. It's been a rollercoaster of emotions, uncertainties, and unexpected turns. We've leaned on each other for support, held on to hope, and relied on the strength of our love to guide us through.
Now, as we wait for the results of further tests and cultures, we're taking it one step at a time.
The road to recovery isn't always straightforward, and healing takes patience and perseverance.
We want to extend our heartfelt gratitude to all of you who've been sending well wishes, thoughts, and prayers our way. Your support means more to us than words can express, and it gives us the strength to face each day with hope and resilience.
As we continue to navigate these challenges, we're reminded of the unpredictable nature of life. We're learning to adapt, finding solace in the small victories, and embracing the power of unity in times of difficulty.
So, as we work through these hurdles, please keep our family in your thoughts and prayers. We're looking forward to the day when we can share more positive news and stories of triumph.
Thank you for being a part of our journey. Your presence, encouragement, and support truly make a difference.
Stay strong, and let's continue to embrace life's ups and downs with unwavering determination.
Sending love and gratitude,
The Geiter's
