Still Breathing

It's been forever since I posted anything, and significantly longer since I brought you up to date on what's happening here.  I'm sorry.  My offline life is just as far behind!

I have been struggling--still--with depression.  The meds are still not right, although a second opinion confirmed what my doctor has been doing.  Next week I'll meet with my family doctor to talk over a few ideas that the second-opinion doctor suggested.

I've had follow-up visits with the medical oncologist and a surgeon.  By all indications, everything is fine.  Thank God!

I hope to write at least a couple of blog posts this week.  My list includes a review and two giveaway posts.  And I always think about writing for Faith Barista Jam on Thursdays, but I never have the topic, the time, and the creativity all at once.

We'll get there.  Just not today.

    I was recently tested for Vitamin D levels and mine came back really low. I think the depression is due to this at least for me. I've also read having your Vitamin B levels checked is a good idea. Another reason is I don't get enough sleep...ever. So I know medication can help, but there are some other ways to try to combat depression too and I'm hoping you find a good solution that fits!

    If you live in a wintery place, the grey days can contribute to the depression...Vitamin D is very helpful in that case. I just did find your blog, and I thought we've got a lot in common. This is one more thing. But God is faithful. You're brave for admitting your struggles. : )
