Freebie time!!

I know I promised some freebies "very soon".
I am sorry it took so long, but with all my other "projects" in my life this is the time!

It seems WordArts are my "thing" - but I have no specific style.
I just want to mix and try and explore.
Please, leave a small comment if you consider it worth to download!

Polymyalgia Rheumatica and Cortisone

First of all - about my health!!
I have now been diagnosed with Polymyalgia Rheumatica and started to take the "wondermedicin" Cortisone. After 2 weeks I now feel I am back to life!!
Will still see the rheumatologist today and get more knowledge how to proceed from now.
But so far I am just HAPPY the pain and stiffness and weakness are gone!!!!

My Wordarts @GDS

I have my first WORDARTS @ GDS shop
as an add-on to Dani Alencar's kit A Moment In Life.
Dani asked me if I wanted to do an add-on to her new kit and after some thinking - not many seconds...lol - I said YES.
May I present my "baby" for you:

A Moment In Life Wordarts

And here is Dani's kit

Update on my sickness

Some of you already know I have been sick since last fall.
Now it has come to the point I can hardly walk or do anything that needs muscles.
To get myself dressed in the morning takes a lot of time, to go to the toilet is a big problem.
I move along the walls for a couple of hours until the stiffness has reduced.
And I have now diagnosed myself with Polymyalgia Rheumatica .....

Anyway - I finally got thoroughly tested and my Sed rate (ESR) is 64, CRP 22 and my Hemoglobin has lowed from 136 to 112 in 3 months. I also got a referral to a rheumatologist and I have an appointment Monday April 20.
I hope they will find out what is wrong with me cause I cannot bear the thought I will be this sick the rest of my life.
Fibromyalgia was the first diagnose I got, but I dont think that is the case with such high numbers in the tests.

My mind is much more positive now when I finally know I will see a specialist.
My body is the same though.....dont want to co-operate with me at all....

Just thought i would explain my MIA.
Have a nice weekend everyone.
