Updated – Sorry It’s Been So Long!

Hey guys,

I know I haven’t posted in a while and I am so sorry! I have been having some health problems lately. One being my memory loss. I can’t even remember whether or not I have taken my pills and that has never been a problem for me! It’s scary and so frustrating. On Friday we flew up to California to see my doctor and hoped for some answers.
The doctor appointment didn’t give me the answers I was hoping for, but it was a good start. The doctor said that she had never seen memory loss before in a patient taking the same medication I am, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t possible. So we are going to do a small experiment and cut my dosage in half. We hope that that will be enough to keep the irregular heart beats at bay but also hopefully not give me as many memory problems.
If my heart beats start to go crazy again we may up it a bit, but not to the full dose I am on now. They did say that memory loss could be because of Thyroid problems, but since I already get that checked once a month and it has looked good lately, we don’t think it is that.
I promise to keep you guys more updated and I appreciate all the support!

Hope and Love,
Becca

    I’ve beaten cancer 3 times before, I just hope I have it in me to kick its ass one more time
    Sometimes you just get tired of hearing you have cancer,
    But that’s when you have to get tough & start the fight all over again
    I guess that’s all I have to say.
    Just remember keep on fighting the good fight
    And never give up !!!!

    I have health issues and forwhatever reason there is a connection between memory loss and the level of ammonia in the blood. This can be addressed. It’s a blood test but for whatever reason the drs. don’t seem to do it routinely. I am NOT a doctor, just another patient, but the memory loss I was dealing with just about drove me crazy! Then one smart doctor ran this level, found it was too high and I get treatment for that right along with all the other treatments I am on daily. It isn’t a cure, just a help. Good luck!

    – American Christians know about liberation theology, though we most often associate it with the likes of Wright rather than Sabeel. Either way, it is disliked and Israel has vast support in the US. You write like you don't live in America, or live in an atypical community.

    Interesting book you are writing 🙂 Its a good idea. I used to ask my mother: "Why didn't you invite me to your wedding?"I'd also like to share a quote about children."Children have never been very good at listening to their elders, but they have never failed to imitate them. They must, they have no other models." ~ by James Baldwin
