melissatwa's Journal, 16 November 2021

My world has been revolving around caring for a very sick girl. I have not exercised at all, and my food choices have been... whatever. I am going to really try to regroup in the next days, and I will record my weight soon. Honestly, I am just so thankful my daughter is finally getting better. That is pretty much all that matters to me right now. Urgent care, all night ER, many nights of little sleep staying close to her bed...it all took a toll. I am pretty exhausted. If you have a chronic pain condition, may I suggest you never get an acute kidney infection? My sweet girl has had a horrible week.

Dear friends, thank you so much for your prayers, encouragement, and understanding. It has been a super hard time. The emotional pain of seeing the suffering and sorrow in my girl was and is far worse than being tired or distressed about what to do personally. Every comment from you is precious and meaningful. Thank you!!! She continues to improve but is facing the big questions of how she can "catch up" with her university work when simply "keeping up" is a struggle. Still so weak and tired, she can not work all day and all night...day after day, which is what she would have to do to keep her grades. This is just the story of a chronic health condition, but it doesn't make it easier. One hour at a time!

I know little about her medical condition, but would dropping out for the rest of the year make sense and just concentrate on health. Under the circumstances she is probably not getting a lot out of it anyway. Come back to fight another day.

Kenna, she is a senior and so longing to be done. She absolutely knows she will feel better when not in school. She was well enough most of the time this summer working full time. She was doing what she loves, and a job awaits her for next fall if she graduates. Study is just the wrong kind of strain for her. We have encouraged her to take a lighter load and finish next year. I wish she would at least take winter quarter off. Truely, her health now is more important than anything... Even accepting the position she wants in a field making a difference in the lives of people she already knows and loves.
