Whit Summited Mt. Langley ...PREGNANT
Whit Summited Mt. Langley ...PREGNANT
Whit and I had just returned from a fast paced 60 mile backpacking trip in the Sierras where Whit had noticed her body doing some strange things:
Waves of nausea
Dizzy spells
Easily fatigued
It was interesting ...but all could be chalked up to the elevations we reached on the trip. And then we got the results of the pregnancy test!!!
With about 60 hours before her next trip, we had to keep cool heads and make some high stakes choices. This is the story we weren't sharing with social media that weekend
Whit and Jake are Christian Life Coaches at Steadfast Life Coaching. We bridge the gap between the secular wisdom of the self help world and the transformative power of faith in Jesus.
