Hello,
I wanted to start this blog to keep you all updated, and I am praying that this blog will also give me something to do. This has been a long journey. This "journey" started on August 17th 2002, when I had 2 heart attacks on this day. In June of the next year (2003) I was diagnosed with heart failure. In April of 2005, the doctors noted that the heart failure was getting worse. In March of this year(2006) I had to have a Pacemaker/Difibbulater put in to make my heart beat like it was suppose to. In May the doctors decided that I had to have a heart transplant. In order to have the transplant I have to be smoke free for 3 months. I have now been smoke free for 2 weeks. It has been very "'trying" to quit smoking. I have eaten enough Jolly Ranchers to resink the Titanic(hehehe)....GOD has been and continues to be good to me...He has delivered me from many things and now he has delivered me from smoking...I have many wonderful friends and a GREAT church and GREAT Pastor that continually pray for me. I am praying for many more "good" days so that I can be in service at my church. I miss being there at each service, it's just that some days I just can't seem to get moving, i'm so tired....Please continue to pray for GOD's intervention on this "journey".....Until next time, May GOD bless and keep you!!!...........Paula
