Today Is Brighter


Today's a brighter day

You have to move on, The stress has left me tired and listless my body aches, I have a migraine Ive been throwing up but my girls okay.
I have 2 weeks until I go to the specialist, treatment is essential and necessary. It wont be an easy ride it may not even be a cure but I have to try. All I have is hope and faith.

I have Liver Disease................
Ive had cancer.............
Ive had a stroke...........
I'm 36 years old and I have been sick since I was 16 one way or another its a long time. I wasn't aware until I found out at 27 what was dragging me down (I even thought I was just lazy sometimes) I struggled and put on a brave face and pushed myself to the limit. In my good times I went to the gym 6 days a week and ran 10km 3 times a week all the time making my pain my determination. Wow when I look at the time frame I'm amazed at how long it really has been. I forgot what it felt like to have energy and not wake up in pain. Chronic Fatigue is normal to me and so is pain. When I had a stroke at 32 and my doctor told me to slow down I didn't really have a choice . I recovered well from that but suffer normal and hemiplegic migraines (nothing to do with my liver) they can be extremely debilitating and scary as only a C.T Scan can determine between the hemiplegic migraines and a stroke. I had cervical cancer at 25 and a hysterectomy after that, they found I had cancer of the uterus and if I hadn't of had the hysterectomy I would of been dead at 30 so it was a blessing that I opted for the operation and not radium or chemo only. After all my health problems I didn't think my liver would be the one to put me through more. I shouldn't of been surprised really, I was told that it shouldn't affect me badly until I was a lot older BUT I shouldn't of had cervical cancer when it was only 3 years between pap smears (Girls every 12 months PLEASE)
Well even after as bad as I feel today I can still say I feel better.
Dana is well and healthy and dealing with her dramas brilliantly. (smile)
All of my other children are Healthy and Happy.
And my gorgeous man is well and still gorgeous.
And my friends remind me of how much they care.

So today I'm Happy, Grateful and feeling blessed for all that is good in my life.

Healthy Blessings to You All. XOXO
