A small update

Romans 8:28 
28 And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.
I got 7 vials of blood drawn yesterday. 
They are running some special tests - I've got some odd reactions going on. I’ve got the shakes, actually. My legs and my hands. I don't think it’s related to my bone marrow transplant. But who knows, really?

Doctor visits.
X-rays.
Blood draws.
Not feeling well.
Being tired all the time.
Having to ask friends for rides to appointments.

I’m sick of it. All of it.

I want to go back to 2013. Before I had cancer. Before I even knew what leukemia was.
Back to when my kids were still home and they ran through the house laughing and fighting.
I feel like it was October of 2013 and I was told I had leukemia - I turned around - and suddenly it’s 2019 and I still feel like crap.
The shaking makes it hard to type and write. But I wanted to get out how I was feeling. 
I try to focus on the good things.
I feel better than when I had my bone marrow transplant in 2015. And I feel better than I did most of 2016. But I’m not feeling as if I’m improving at a steady rate anymore. 
I guess I’ll see how this latest lab work shakes out. (Ha, get it, shakes?)
And, most importantly, I haven’t lost faith. I still believe God heals and that all things work together for good. <><
