It's been a long time since I've been online and there have been a lot of ups and downs since then. Over the winter I was really sick. I spent my 30th birthday walking with a cane if I was walking at all. After several weeks of physiotherapy, I regained the strength to stand up and walk on my own again. My shortness of breath and high blood pressure still remain unexplained but were able to be controlled and have since gone back to normal.
Spring brought new hope and a spring in my step. I was feeling better and wedding plans were in full swing. I got two new nieces (both on the same day!) who are both beautiful and perfect. My amazing family and friends threw me a beautiful bridal shower and I had the time of my life at my bachlorette party. I had more fun than I had since before I got sick.
I had an amazing summer filled with rest and relaxation (and avoiding getting sick at all costs) which was capped off by marrying the most loving and supportive man I have ever met. We enjoyed an exciting honeymoon in Napa Valley and San Francisco (my doctors didn't want me going anywhere outside of North America) and life is now back to normal.
I feel so blessed to have survived everything I have been through and come out the other side with the strength and determination to continue living my life to the fullest. Thank you to everyone who has been following my journey and supporting me from day one.
