Weary, yet HOPEFUL!

Here we are again… back on the island of Oahu… running from a disease that has no known cure. Running from Babesia Duncani, a co-infection of the Lyme Disease that we’ve fought and beat.

I now live in a body that is like living in a home without a working thermostat. My body doesn’t regulate my body temperature well and the cold builds up in my bones and flesh to a point that the pain it causes overtakes my entire body causing what look and seem like seizures.

My doctor cautioned us that if we stayed in the cold and let my body face these severe pain and seizure like episodes again… I might not make it through them this time around. These have happened so much over the last few years off and on. They have really worn me down and caused lots of fatigue and taken their tole on me physically.

So, we found ourselves having to run AGAIN. We landed on island just before Thanksgiving 2019 and are in the middle of our third move in the last month and a half since arriving. We’ve been so blessed to have spaces to land temporarily and are HOPING to be able to stay in this next spot until we find a home to purchase and be able to call ours in Kailua, Oahu for part of each year to get me out of the cold safely.

All three kiddos are back to paddling and start regattas this coming weekend. Our teens hopped right back into their Highschool youthgroup and were so blessed to be welcomed by friends and youth staff and pastors. School is super intense and they haven’t missed one single day even during our packing, moving and traveling… we’re pressing onto the finish line with Liberty University and thankful for its portability during all of this craziness!

Cory is diligently plugging away and working like a maniac to keep us all afloat. We are needing to find new clients and grow Lone Mill… so, if y’all know of anyone needing the best web development out there… LET ME KNOW!!!

I am feeling pretty darn good other than being SUPER DUPER fatigued and sleepy… likely due to too much stress for far too long. I have some new treatments to fill y’all in on… that’s going to need a few more posts of it’s own though, but I’m so excited to share this life changing news with you soon!

That’s pretty much a wrap for us… we’re beyond weary, but HOPEFUL!

  • We’re hopeful for full healing of my body.
  • We’re hopeful for financial healing as this has taken so much financially for so long.
  • We’re hopeful for financial healing as this has taken so much financially for so long.
  • We’re hopeful for rest… for body, mind, and our hearts.
  • We’re hopeful for newness.

We’re resting in Jesus… keeping our eyes on Him alone and putting all our hope in Him!

Thank you each for following along, for praying for us and for cheering us on! We NEED each of you and your friendships… stay with us as it helps us feel much less alone as we’re very lonely AGAIN!

HOPEFUL in this BeautyFULL mess! Thankful He’s not finished yet!

Live IT Out Friends…

Sincerely, Dani

    Hello, first I want to say I’m so for all you have gone through. I understand what you are talking about as I have a sister that is fighting Lyme. It’s ugly nasty! We have found a few things that have been life savers….
    We discovered magnesium for the seizure activity. It’s a miracle cure for them! She uses the homeopathic mag phos 6x. Wonder working! If you haven’t checked out homeopathy it’s another weapon for your arsenal. I love Joette Calabrese’s website and podcast for knowledge on the wonderful world of homeopathy!
    Blessings and prayers!

  2. Happy to hear that your symptoms are being somewhat relieved, and hope is being felt! Love you friends, continued prayers for all of you, especially miracles
