About Me

My photo
At age 39, I was diagnosed with congestive heart failure and cardiomyopathy. I was given days to live with a heart function of 5% at that time. I was also told I needed a heart transplant to survive. I am now a 13 year survivor and have not had a heart transplant. I am married to my best friend, Steve and have one daughter, age 19. I'm sharing my journey to help others and because it "Matters to my Heart."

Our God is HEALER, awesome in power, Our God!

Wow, it's been a long time since I've updated my blog! I'm still doing extremely well. Exercising every single day for 70 minutes at a very hard pace. I am amazed after every workout just how much I am able to do. I've come from 5% EF all those years ago to 35% when doctors said it was impossible after this much time. The reason for this post today is to ask anyone reading that believes in the power of prayer and the healing power of God to agree with me for 50-55% EF on my next echo which should be this November. I know it is possible with God and I'm believing it!

This week, I'm going to miss my daughter as she travels to Florida for International Youth Convention with her youth group. She flew for the first time in her life this morning! Praying God fills her with his spirit and she comes back changed forever and on fire for God. She already has such a servants heart!

I know God has more in store for me too and I'm ready to do what he his asking. I have heard him speaking to me a lot over the last couple weeks. He didn't heal my heart for my own comfort.....time to get out of the comfort zone a bit more! Ready to be a giant for God!
