Life with Myasthenia Gravis

Myasthenia Gravis an Autoimmune Disease

    I know some of you all are wondering what in the world is myasthenia gravis? And am I pronouncing it right? (LOL) Myasthenia gravis is one of many autoimmune diseases but its very rare. This particular disease effects the receptors that transmit what you tell your body to do and it doesn't get to the brain because my body is attacking itself. It is very similar to lupus except there is no pain but all of my muscles become very weak and almost inactive.

My First Green Smoothie!!

Trying this new eating healthy thing has really been a stumbling block for me because I like to throw down in the kitchen with all my calories and fats and cholesterol that will give me a heart attack! Hey, I'm just being honest. You know we can put some elbows and knee caps in some food, especially southern food which I had learned to make from scratch while pregnant with my second son two years ago. So yall already know we be eating good up in here! Anyhow, I do have an ongoing muscle disease that disagrees with that diet and I had just found out how horrible certain foods actually made me feel.  How unfortunate that I learned how to cook everything that I love just to give it away to fruits, veggies and smoothies...smh! What a waste! 

Breastfeeding: Three years and counting

    I literally have been breastfeeding on and off since 2009. My first son was breastfed for just about 1year. He was bottle fed most of the time since I was going to school. My second son was conceived exactly after I stopped breastfeeding my first son and he was exclusively breastfed until he turned 5 months old. I didn't stop breastfeeding him until he was about 1 1/2 yrs. Needless to say after I stopped with him here came baby number 3 and of course she is being breastfed now also. Does anyone else see a pattern here?

Preparing for the Sabbath

      As another blessed Sabbath rolls around I have to decide what we're going to eat for this day of rest. I try my best to switch up the meals every week so that we can still eat good and relax. At first it seemed challenging for me to stay out of the kitchen slaving over the stove and I didn't want to try to be overly righteous by not eating at all so I had to find a medium quickly. I have three children so going without eating isn't an option but with patience and a little more thought it has become very easy.
