About me

Introduction	I have been an ordained minister in the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America since 1993, and was diagnosed with Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) in 2008. I had never heard of POTS until I had spent over 9 months wrestling with undiagnosed illness. All I knew was that something had knocked me flat on my back, and I felt best when I was truly laying down. My journey continues as I continue to wrestle with symptoms. I have found this to be an incredible spiritual journey as well as a challenging physical journey. I invite you to email me at aljprmips@gmail.com if you would like to talk about your journey. Please put "Chronic Hope" or "Blog" in the subject line, so it doesn't get lost in the spam. I would love to hear your story and have conversation with you.
