Just a little vulnerable post to 1. Let family, friends, & my clients know what is currently going on in my life & 2. Ask for some much needed prayers.
What is it they say "when it rains, it pours" & "life is lifing"? I have never truly felt the weight of these sayings until the last 24 hours. I won't go into every little detail, but my dad is currently in the hospital. He hasn't been feeling well, but his symptoms progressed on Tuesday evening to the point where my mom & I felt the need to get him to the hospital. He is currently being treated in the ICU for a dangerously low sodium level. We are waiting for the results of some other tests to come back. Lord willing, nothing else major is going on & he will he back to his normal self soon.
Just a month ago, my mom had to be taken to the hospital & due to some things going on with her, she is not able to drive for 6 months. She is doing much better, but the no driving thing has definitely added some extra challenges.
I am an only child. I am also a self-employed massage therapist trying to take care of my clients & manage all the things that come with my business.
SO life is definitely lifing right now. I already deal with anxiety & have been in a state of overwhelm for quite a while. Extra prayers right now would definitely be appreciated!
* To my clients...I am trying my best to keep up. I am having to remind myself that I can only do so much though. Thankfully my parents & I have the best circle of people around us willing to help out if needed. My mom has quite a handful of people willing to help her get around, but now with my dad I am unsure of how much I will be needed. I am having to make decisions for my schedule on a daily/weekly basis. If I need to cancel/reschedule appointments I will communicate that with you as soon as I can. To those that this has already affected...I appreciate your understanding & encouragement SO much! If you are currently waiting on me to place you for an appointment or just simply respond to your message...please be patient with me. Most of yall know that I am all over the place anyway 🤪...but the overwhelm, ADD, and brain fog are on another level right now.
