What's this about?

I am Shannon and my husband is Chris. This is a place to share and process struggles related to miscarriages, eating disorders, and Shannon's struggle with sexual abuse. We have found that joy, exempt of Christ, is often bittersweet in this life. We look forward to heaven where sweetness will abound and bitterness will be gone.

Eating disorder update

Well, I just realized that it's been just over four months since the last time I gave into the temptations the eating disorder. Four months. At one point, I didn't think I could make it a day. Thank you, God, for giving me Samantha to teach and help me. What an incredible blessing her life was to us for the short time she was here. My biggest fear though is that I hurt her because my body was in bad shape from the eating disorder. I hope and pray that my choices were not the cause of her death. That's something that I still have in the back of my mind. But I leave it in God's hands.

    Shannon, first of all, I am very proud of you! Congratulations! celebrate!

    Second of all, you are forgiven. Our sinfulness creates all sorts of hazards in our sinful bodies. But you are forgiven of ALL of that sin, from being born with original to sin, to eating disorders. Jesus is that powerful.
