Each Day Already is a Challenge

by Kenzie

Rated: ASR · Book · Writing · #1160028

Fibro fog, pain, writing sandwiched in between. Quotes. Sermon notes. Encouragement.

A Texas Sunrise

Sunrise on Surfside Beach, Texas

A friend, William Taylor, took this picture. He visits Surfside Beach with his dogs almost every morning, watching the sun rise while the dogs prance about at the water's edge.

This is only about ten miles from where I lived in Lake Jackson, Texas. Sadly, I only visited this beach about four times in the six years I lived nearby.

Each day is a challenge. A challenge to get by without thinking about the fibromyalgia pains. A challenge to stay awake when chronic fatigure wants to take over. And a challenge to navigate through fibro fog.

I haven't been writing as much as in the past. For years, I wrote at least 500 words a day. Now, I'm lucky if I write 500 words in month. Sigh.

For more information about what my day (or life) is all about with fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, chronic pains, IBS, depression and everything else thrown in, check this out:

Once you see it, I am sure it is hard to "unsee" it. LOL. I looked up the title but did not see it listed online. You don't see many bloopers like that around here, but I am sure they are out there.

In response to "Have we forgotten?"

I researched the falling man and looked at victim and family stories. I am sure there were some kind of city remembrance events. I did my own, allowing myself to watch the terrifying videos, and reports, and documentaries the entire day to remember. There already is a generation who don't remember anything unless they learned something in school or from their own family about the attacks of 9/11.

In response to "I had to laugh "

On a somewhat related note, I saw a YouTube Sports Short day before yesterday. It was part of a collection of "NFL Best Somethings [catches, runs, interceptions, etc.]". Somebody went to all the trouble of selecting and collating the video clips, ranking them however they thought best, and then captioning them so viewers would know who did what to whom. Except... In this particular video, players in two separate clips were given credit for doing whatever it was they did - against their own team.

But we do expect the media to do better.

The lump keeps shrinking

More good news. I saw the oncologist/hematologist today.

When my breast lump was discovered, it was 2 3/4 centimeters x 2 1/2 centimeters. (For those of us who don't do metric, that's 1. 83 inches × .98 inches.) Now, the doc says it's 2 centimeters x 2 centimeters. (Or .789 inches X .789 inches.)

The medication (or your prayers...or both!) is working. The doc couldn't find the lump at first, and I actually had the same problem this morning.

Next visit in a month. I really want the lump to be almost impossible to find by then.

Thanks for caring!

Have we forgotten?

We promised that we would never forget. Are any organizations or churches in your area having a remembrance or memorial service for 9/11?
