A Little Encouragement

-

November 12, 2017: Tick tock, tick tock goes 2 of the clocks in the house near me. My head feels like it's in a vice grip. My entire body feels like I've been in a car accident and was severely bruised all over. My face even hurts. I'm still itchy from the medicine I was taking for my fibromyalgia. I can tell it's starting to leave my system. I finally got a hold of gluten free medicine. I go back to my Dr tomorrow for further treatment and to discuss the possibility of disability. I know that I'm going to be in pain and have good days and bad days. However, I'm having more bad days than good right now. I understand the cold temperatures, the rain, and the future snow will always effect me. I know that I've been a bit depressed recently. However, I have so much on my plate right now, that it's running off the sides of the plate. I'm completely overwhelmed. All I can do is pray, take it one day at a time ask for prayers and deal with it the best I can. I know many of you have good days and bad days. That is all you can do as well. Live one day at a time. One foot forward. One moment at a time. Best foot forward. I pray for all of you out there. You can always reach out to me if you are worried about me or want to help me. If you are struggling and you just need an ear to listen to you, I'm here. I'm always willing to help you any way possible if at all possible. I wouldn't expect anything more from you as my friend. Sometimes that is all I need as well. A listening ear. A word of encouragement. I hope that my blogging helps everyone to realize that you are not alone in the battle called LIFE!

Stressed beyond belief

-
January 12th: First of all, Happy New Year. I'm stressed beyond belief. I don't know what to do. I've had a migraine headache for over a week. Went to the Dr yesterday and the shot in my butt didn't help. My brother-in-law's health I feel like it continues to decline every week or at least something new pops up every week. If it's not his health it's something else that we have to deal with. I know this is life, but I can't keep on doing this at this rate. I need help. We need help. If it's not my brother-in-law, then it's something to do with the farm. If it's not that, it's something to do with us personally.  Sorry I haven't blogged in awhile but I haven't known what to even say for a long time now. It's like my creativity spark has just disappeared from me. I need prayers, positive vibes, and positive thoughts coming our way.  I just recently lost my Great Aunt, and growing up I always knew she'd die one day too, but j...

Family is Tough Sometimes

-
To my reader's, I thought I should come here and blog about recent events.  My brother-in-law has been diagnosed with stage 4 non-alcoholic liver disease aka NASH. I do feel like I know nothing about this horrible disease. However, I probably know more than you , my reader, just because I am learning about it as I go. He sleeps a lot due to the ammonia levels in his system.  He's extremely jaundice, which for anyone who doesn't know, he looks yellow, including the whites of his eyes.  Today seems to be a good day. He seems very alert and less confused than other times. Some days he is not alert, and can barely function.  We've called in hospice and he is currently under their care. I never thought I'd be 38 years of age and dealing with hospice for a brother! It's overwhelming to say the least. So much to do, learn and ask. We've received some great things from them to help him around the house to be independent. He is a guy that desires to be independent so...

HOPE FOR THE FUTURE

December 30, 2017: On December 29, at 9:30 am, I started going to counseling and I saw a Dr. I'm being diagnosed with Bi-polar II. My moods have been very unstable recently. I'm being put on different medicine than I was before. I am waiting now for the pharmacy to locate and obtain gluten free medicine for me. I started group counseling today.  It's interesting to say the least. There are people in there that I can relate with very easily.  I hope this makes me not feel alone. I know I'm not, yet I feel like I am. I have my parents, and my 2 friends. Group counseling was tough cause my anxiety reared its ugly head a bit. It wasn't severe, just enough to make me feel uncomfortable. Men and women both. I sat between women to try to feel more comfortable. I wanted to run away and hide. Once I got home it calmed down. I want to get my agoraphobia under control when it comes to unfamiliar territory. I made a decision today to do the $1 a week savings plan as my New Yea...
