Oceans….

I wanted to take the time to share a song that has been life changing for me in so many ways especially these past few days…..

“Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)”

You call me out upon the waters
The great unknown where feet may fail
And there I find You in the mystery
In oceans deep
My faith will stand

And I will call upon Your name
And keep my eyes above the waves
When oceans rise
My soul will rest in Your embrace
For I am Yours and You are mine

Your grace abounds in deepest waters
Your sovereign hand
Will be my guide
Where feet may fail and fear surrounds me
You’ve never failed and You won’t start now

So I will call upon Your name
And keep my eyes above the waves
When oceans rise
My soul will rest in Your embrace
For I am Yours and You are mine

[6x]
Spirit lead me where my trust is without borders
Let me walk upon the waters
Wherever You would call me
Take me deeper than my feet could ever wander
And my faith will be made stronger
In the presence of my Savior

I will call upon Your name
Keep my eyes above the waves
My soul will rest in Your embrace
I am Yours and You are mine……

May these words help someone in some comforting way how its helped me…. #ProtectingHearts

#WeAreHere

I am here to spread awareness for ‪#‎HeartDisease‬. It’s something that’s affected my family and myself. I spread awareness for others to know that this disease can affect anyone. It does not discriminate on age, gender or race. It has already taken my father and it’s tried taken me several times but I rise every morning thanking The Lord for another day of life and another day to spread awareness on this disease that affects me! ‪#‎ProtectYourSelf‬‪#‎ProtectYourHeart‬ ‪#‎BecauseEachHeartBeatCounts‬ ‪#‎ProtectingHearts ‬‪#‎WeAreHere‬

-“Observation Stay”

I am yet again at one of the most luxuries NYC HOTEL you can IMAGINE! I absolutely LOVE IT HERE! I get full 24/7 service round the clock! I have what you may say is a “personal staff” that attends to my every need. I get my own room, with the occasional next door neighbor. I get fresh gourmet meals delivered 3x’s a day. Hahaa, not so funny to my loved ones (I am too sarcastic..you’ll get used to it) but I am yet again here at another hospital stay. It never really gets exciting to come through the “ER” dept. I for one, I tend to procrastinate when it comes to coming here but, its usually because I know it;ll end up in an overnight “observation stay” which leads to me being here for another 2 to 4 days. At least now I am making use of this time to start my blog. This blog has been in motion for a while now but never seem to put it in writing… that is until now. Not only am I starting to finally put things in official writing but I plan for this to spread into the world. As for how far into this world?  All OVER THE WORLD!!  Well actually, If I can even get one person to start  hearing me out then I’ll be a bit content. So here I go. I have a plan. My plan is to start reaching out and spread much awareness as I can about HCM (Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy). I have Obstructive HCM. In short, the muscle of my heart gets thicker (which gives me horrible symptoms BTW). Its one of the most common sudden cardiac deaths out there. HCM usually tends to go unnoticed until… well your heart stops. (hence sudden death) As much as I dislike getting admitted into the hospitals, I can at least say I am grateful my cardiologist (Dr.Vales… she is amazing!!!) who discovered my condition and has at most help stabilize my condition.

Anyone ever read those stories of a young athlete, or a teen that has past away suddenly due to cardiac arrest?? It kinda leaves people with alot of unanswered questions. I complete understood why.. Why not have a child get tested at a ce!rtain point in adolescence just to see if something can be prevented for the future?? Almost like a check point in ones life to make sure everything is working properly?. (I dont mean the annual physical either). I didn’t officially get diagnosed until I had my first real health scare at around 19 (I’ll go into that further down the road)….

 

I have goals. Goals that I hope one day you’ll remember reading  this, whoever you maybe and think “wow shes actually making it happen”. My major goal is to work with people who can help make this happen with me. Whether just by reading this blog, talking to a friend about it.I already am in talks with some doctors who are willing to connect me to some “big people” so let’s see if I can make my goals into true reality…… As the days follow I’ll write more about this journey I’m starting to venture and MY STORY. For tonight I will end this blog by thanking you all. I thank you for reading the beginning of something new. I thank you for being a old/new friend. I thank you for helping me start my journey to #ProtectingHearts
