Hey Amy your comment thingy isnt working!!! I wanted to say this in response to your
post."Beautifully written. So honest hun. Its good for other people to see your not invincible, you have feelings, and entitled to down days, and insecurity.
You live day in and out battling disease, that is tiring in itself, physically and emotionally, and its o.k for you to feel the way you do!
I'm the same with my kids, just because you never know what's around the corner and I love them dearly.
I can relate to wanting to hibernate with those who you feel most comfortable with, I'm learning all over again to step out of my comfort zone. I am eternally grateful for my friends who understand my situation and come over to visit.
I get tired of justifying myself, or having to explain why I cant do things, having wonderful people who don't expect you to jump through hoops is a godsend.
You do have something to offer, by being on here you are sharing with the world, and other people with our conditions that its o.k to be who you are, and feel the way you are!!
Your a great mum, and wife, now an educator, you are doing something of value!!!
Love Kirst xoxoxo"
. Was great! A fun, stimulating class. I was tired from not much sleep and the dreaded diarrhoea, I've had for now four days.
When I have an infection my bowels have a fit and believe they need to be emptied up to 7 times, and that's before lunch. Followed up by nausea, and lethargy from probably dehydration one was tired. We had to explain how we felt about being there yesterday. I wasn't going to spontaneously launch into a full blown explanation, so I blamed my tiredness on my kitten, who in fact did keep me awake.
So I shoved down some paracetamol, and doubled up on the medication I normally take for the bowels and skipped off to class with Sarah. Its the first time I have started a course with someone I already know and I found it refreshing! Have to go back today, different subject.
On a interesting note here are three links for what is happening in our
Medical system. An impressive report was released detailing the latest
Medical Mishaps and
Deaths. My confidence has soared after reading this.......
