Lucky Me...No Sarcasm Intended

Most people would consider me to be pretty unlucky when it comes to medical issues. And as of a few weeks ago, I probably would have agreed with you. Not long ago, I joined a few POTS facebook pages/groups. I have only read a handful of posts but when it comes to POTS, I seem to be living the dream. I get out of bed every morning and don't even think about it. Most of these people lay in bed all day. Most have personal pulse ox, blood pressure, and heart rate/pulse machines in their rooms. The age range is across the board. Some women are struggling with fertility (a problem I hope I don't encounter myself one day...far away) and others struggle with attending high school and having to sit and stand at certain times during the day. Someone recently posted and asked everyone to comment what "POTS is" to them. I only read through about 20 comments but after reading those, I knew that POTS is something I am conquering. I wish I could project across the sky how thankful I am for my life and how well I am doing so that people knew. I am thankful for all of the extra things I have to do for POTS because I have the ability to do them. I actively try not to complain but I'm not perfect and catch myself complaining more than I would like to admit. God has blessed me in more ways that I can say or even think of and for that I am eternally grateful. 

Until next time, 

A :) 

P.S. Happy Easter if I don't post before then (let's be honest, I probably won't haha)
