Familia Cedeño

Has it really been ONE YEAR? Last year at this time, I was sitting in a hospital bed, recovering from my Addisonian crisis. Last week, as I woke up on the morning of my brother's birthday, I couldn't help but tear up, as I remembered how miserable I was on his birthday last year, which was right before I had gotten super sick and eventually went to the ER days later. Ugh. That is a memory I never want to relive. Being diagnosed with Addison's hasn't changed my life THAT much. Sure I take meds daily, which is probably the biggest change. I have to make sure I don't over exert myself physically. I wear a medical ID bracelet that never comes off. I am a little more conscious about what I eat, since the meds have changed my metabolism and it is easier to gain weight. Yet, more than anything else, I think the experience has taught me to be grateful. Looking back on that time last year, I am so happy that I am NOT in that state anymore. I appreciate so much the fact

In mid July, Roberto came home from work one evening and told me we had some things to discuss. He had been working at his current job for just over a month. The company he works for, happens to deal with real estate. At work that day, he had met someone who he knew from his previous internship, Mark. Turns out, he was selling his house and so were his parents. Roberto also found out that one of his co-workers, Eric, is a realtor. We weren't looking to buy a home. In fact, we weren't planning on it for another couple of years down the road. We wanted to save up a larger down payment and had some other goals we wanted to take care of first. So, buying a home was far from my thoughts. If you know me, I had other things on my mind. So when Roberto came home and started talking about a house, I was VERY surprised. I knew that Roberto secretly wanted to wait and see if there was a chance for us to live outside of Utah. When he took this job, which is based out of Denver, Color
