Yes, that is quite true. Sometimes it feels as if I forget for a minute I'm reading about your journey and you aren't writing my story for me to read. I also look at this as you have the words and courage to write it and in some small way write it for me also.
I try to look back on my past selves with compassion as well- remembering that I was (unfortunately I still am) sick, but I didn’t know it then. And I’m not sure which space is worse, the knowing or the unknowing.
I’m currently at your point of drowning in trying supplement #42 and “I’ve stopped going to doctors because there doesn’t seem to be any point and it’s too expensive.”
Isn't it interesting how different our lives and bodies turned out/are in the present than we thought they would be? That one is still such a struggle for me most days.
Kelsey, I so appreciate you reading and I love reading your comments. As so often happens though when I write about my story and people say “this sounds like mine!” I wish that weren’t true. It’s amazing to feel less alone but it hurts to known others are experiencing pain like that. My hope is that if we come together, speak about these things and support each other we can change things for everyone.
"It’s as much for me as it is for you."
