Getting better as I go©

My Friends, how are you doing?

Wow is this a roller coaster ride I am on!?

But then again, aren't we all ~

unless, well, the other option is not too good.

Last time I wrote

My New Reality ©

phew ~ that was so hard to get on paper

but I needed to.

Time has passed

I have reached a new milestone

with my medication, my disease ~

10 weeks with the injection.

Being self aware

and always making observations

sometimes it seems like I am on the periphery

of my own life

When your life gives you a situation

out of your control

and you are a person who loves

to be in control

life gets confusing

and difficult

and the process of observing what is

and comparing it to what was

is overwhelming.

Unless. Unless...

I look at this as my opportunity.

WHAT? Oh, there I go.

Unless ~ somehow, this is a blessing.

Perhaps, just maybe, someone, somewhere

couldn't handle this pain.

Perhaps, just maybe, someone, somewhere

couldn't handle this fatigue.

Lord knows I have built my character

with all of my life's challenges.

But, if my inner strength, my ability

to be an optimist in the middle of hell...

If that is a way that someone is saved

by this disease.

I will learn how to handle it.

My family and friends will help.

So, my friends, am I getting better as I go?

Yeah. Better. Wiser. Stronger.

Is my pain gone? No. Fatigue gone? No.

I am just trying to figure out how to play this

hand that life has dealt me.

Healing hugs.
