I Will Continue to Fight-This Will Not Bring Me Down
Be strong no matter what and perservere!
After a very long night, nightmare after nightmare, I awoke with swollen knees; my knees hurt and were very stiff. I find that my hands are a wee bit swollen and finger joints are sore. Once again, opening a simple bottle is difficult. I looked in the mirror, my eyes were swollen, and I had black rings under my eyes.
I had not had any of these symptoms for months. As Babe Ruth said: It’s hard to beat a person who never gives up.
It was just so disheartening;
Does this mean my recovery is still miles and miles from reach?
I just could scream, but I didn’t. (I beat up my pillow instead.) I lost a tear or two, but that was all. I swore to myself that I was not going to let this bring me down. I will continue to have faith and recover. Unfortunately, it just won’t be on my timetable.
The more setbacks or obstacles that are thrown at me, the more determined I become that I will beat these beasts. I will keep on fighting! I will become a success story for those that are suffering and are losing hope. I will, even if it takes everything I have, I will!!!!
(Those of us that get knocked down, must get back up. We can have our moment, but we must never give up!)
