I tried cryotherapy today. I didn’t think I could make the 3 min in -135 degrees Celsius but I did and felt pretty energetic afterwards.

GLORIOUS MORNING

Sunday, July 3rd, 2022

This morning I woke up before sunrise and climbed the stairs to the top of the island where the castle is. On my way up, I was lead to pray for the people of Croatia. I was deeply touched by how genuinely nice and warm the people are here. Everyone whom we came encounter with, all of them were super friendly and just so genuine. I wanted to send my blessing prayers to the people of God living here, and also wondering/asking God how many of His people are here… While I was praying and walking around the streets, I felt the blessing of God filling my heart… Then to my surprise, on my way down, I could hear people singing hymns. I thought at first, it was a music coming from a house or something, then I came to a stop. There was a Sunday worship going on inside this small church and people were spilled out on to the square in front of it because the church was packed inside. People are standing outside worshiping. Praying and praising. I stood there in awe and joined them for a little while before I left. What a blessing that I got to witness this! That I could join in worship with my family here. What a glorious morning. 

The other streets were still empty…

NO MORE TEARS

Sunday, April 17th, 2022

Shortly after we came back from Arizona, my parents got Covid and then I also got it from them. Both my parents had mild cold symptoms for couple of days, thankfully, but it hit me the hardest..maybe because my body was still trying to recuperate from the brain injury? I was in bed for 5 days agonizing in pain and on the fifth night, feeling the worst, hard to breath and my oxygen level going down to 90… My friends and family prayed for me that night and by the power of their prayers, I woke up on the sixth day starting to finally feel better. 
I never thought I would suffer from Covid the way I did. Not to mention this was during kids spring break and all the plans I had with kids had to be cancelled (once again!) and it also meant that everyone needed to quarantine so they couldn’t even go out and hang out with their friends neither. In the midst of it all, the worst was that my friend passed away that week and I couldn’t see her in her last days and I couldn’t attend her funeral either. The grief I unconsciously held on to those days poured out of me on Easter Sunday as we were worshipping virtually at home. I was sad thinking about her painful days, weeks and months here on earth but I was thankful that I know that I can praising God for His love for her and knowing that she is with Him. There will be no more suffering, no more sadness, no more tears for MyungJu. All because of what Jesus has done. 

He is risen.

BIRTHDAY PARTY FOR A SPECIAL FRIEND

Monday, March 21st, 2022

I have gotten to know this beautiful woman since last November. She is brave, bold and so comfortable in her own skin and she and I share the love of Korean junk food. She’s been battling cancer for sometime now, and she’s come to know Christ through this difficult and challenging journey. Today we celebrated her birthday with other moms from my town. The love this community showed her is overwhelming and I’m so thankful and privileged  to be a part of this amazing group of woman. Happiest birthday MJ!

BRAIN UPDATE

Wednesday, March 16th, 2022

I had another CT Scan done last week and finally met with an neurosurgeon. The good news is my brain injury can recover fully and there’s no permanent damage, on the other hand, the headaches and flare ups can last much longer…up to a year.
There’s still blood left in the brain, so need to do another CT in a month.  

RAINY WEEKEND VIBE

PLAN B

Friday, February 18th, 2022

So the concussion I had 3 weeks ago skiing has sent me to ER today. My headache/pressure hasn’t subsided and my friends have been urging me to get it checked… and I was only able to get MRI done this morning for various reasons. When my scan results were sent to my doctor, she called me to tell me to go to ER immediately because the scan showed blood in my brain on both sides. I got into my car and had a panic attack thinking I’ve been running around last 3 weeks bleeding in my head and what kind of circumstances that I may have caused and I might need surgery tonight?! Thanks to God, he gave me strength to pull myself together, drove home, and packed a bag containing my toiletries +2 books & kindle (I really thought I was going to be in the hospital for a while from what I was told) and of course some healthy snacks, then Andrew drove me to the hospital. There, after going through routine checks, they told me what the scan seems to be showing was old blood and they’ll just put me on steroid for now followed by CT scan in 2 weeks. What a relief….
We were planning on leaving for Lake Placid this afternoon for a long weekend trip to ski… but instead, I’m now housebound, with even more headaches from the trauma/shock this afternoon…
