What Happened:
Today was a normal day. By normal I mean feet burning, legs hurting blah blah blah. I went to work, taught a boot camp class then went to another fitness class. On the way to the class my body felt really odd. My face was a little numb feeling and the left side of my neck had like a shooting pain going up. I just massaged it and shook it off. I started class and begin to jump. There was a sharp pain that went from my left heel to my hip. It startled me and I stopped briefly. It actually scared me. My left arm went numb. I tried to keep smiling and just instruct so that the class couldn't tell I was in excruciating pain. I attempted to turn around and give a que and the pain shot straight up from my foot to the top of my head. I was absolutely terrified. I knew then I could not continue the class. I stood very still and told the class that I was sorry but I would have to end class. Luckily two of my three original members who had been there from when I started teaching were in class tonight. I told them what happened and that I could not move my left side. They helped me to the car and drove me home. I attempted to jump from the garage up the step into the house....fail! I almost fell! πππIt's ok you can laugh. I did. They did too. So after they got me into the house and onto the couch, well halfway on the couch, they called my mom. This was very much against my wishes but I guess I couldn't be alone. My mom came as well as my nephew. They stayed with me for a long time until I basically had to assure her I would be fine and she could leave. She left at about midnight. I crawled with one leg to the bathroom and pulled myself up, I even washed my hands. I felt so accomplished. I crawled to my room, changed my clothes and went back to the couch and slept well.
How I felt:
At the beginning of this post,in case you missed it, I was TERRIFIED!! I was scared that this would be the night whatever this is took me out! Or that I wouldn't be able to walk, or talk or move my hands.. After I went to the bathroom and re-found independence I felt proud. I also felt blessed to have friends in my class that are true friends and a mom who will drop whatever without being asked. I am so incredibly blessed beyond measure! God is good and I know He did not bring me this far to leave me now. I know my healing is on the way.

There's a song titled "Bigger" and all she's simply saying is God you are BIGGER than anything that I/we may face!! One thing I know he's still in the healing business and all it takes is one touch from him. Our God is Bigger, Better, Greater!!
