Wow, it has been a long time since I have posted. If you are a regular reader and visitor of our family blog I am sorry that I have l not kept up lately. It seems there have been many factors that all came together at once that left me with little time, motivation or energy for blogging.
A primary factor in my blogging hiatus has been due to my health. To make a long story short, I am convinced that I do not have and have not had pericarditis. Following my time in the hospital I (Ryan) continued to have health problems. After some good counsel from friends, a reflection on my health status over the last year and some research on the internet it seems a strong possibility that I have been struggling with what appears to be malaria.
I have been doing a lot of traveling lately, but it is likely that I contracted malaria in India in Feb. 2009. All of my symptoms and history point to malaria....except for a blood test. Malaria is very hard to identify in blood tests. The doctors here in South Korea gave me some malaria medicine and I am thankful to say that I have been feeling increasingly better since I took the malaria medication. We'll see. For now, I am feeling great and am thankful for every day of good health that I enjoy. I'm Ok....I think.
Please stay tuned for more blog posts.
yea!!!!!
