If you can't fly then run, if you can't run then
walk, if you can't walk then crawl, but whatever
you do you have to keep moving forward...
I never cried when I had to have an emergency total
hysterectomy, even after hearing that I almost died. The
one thing I always wanted a a little girl was to have kids.
It didn't happen for me. I lived. I never cried when I
was diagnosed with thyroid cancer nor breast cancer.
Yesterday I had my second injection in my knee.
For the first time I was unable to hold back the tears
because the pain is a lot, and I was/am frustrated
that after the first injection I still had no relief.
This called for a little stopover at my now favorite
Cuban breakfast place. To make matters easier,
it's on the way to home. I always have the
same thing. Tostadas and cafe con leche.
I'm better today and optimistic again that
hopefully after my four injections I will feel relief.
I have to hold on to something. I still continue
do everything, but slower and with pain.
Sniff needs to be taken care of, laundry has to be
done, meals have to be cooked, so yeah slower and
trying to ignore that it hurts. By afternoon I do get
to sit and ice my knee. I don't think it helps.
I'm not one to be pessimistic, but it's been a
long time now, and I would really like to see a
little improvement. Is that too much to ask for?
We continue to wait as see what becomes of Helene.
Do we need to pack and go or will it fizz away from us.
in the next day or so we will have a better idea as to what
we will do. Aside from worrying about all the devastation
it can cause, I am very concerned for M15 and F23.
To all a good day. We continue to wait and see how
this pans out; as of right now it seems we are going to miss
the brunt of it. Hope that stays true. The same was said
when Ian started to "churn" Hoping for the best,
preparing for the worst. Clear skies so far.
Strength does not come from physical capacity.
It comes from an indomitable will...
