I never realized how much I took for granted, before being struck down with a chronic condition.
Working
Housework
Driving
Shopping
Long walks
Playing squosh
Gym
Then fibro came into my life nothing has been the same since.

I also said I would NEVER drive an automatic car but I've just got my new motorbility car and it's an automatic. Now I'm just grateful that although I don't drive often I still can😊

1. My mum was in remission.
2. My dad had just lost his battle with cancer
3. My pain had just been dismissed so readily, despite my other conditions still remaining.
I realized at that point that as soon as the F word is mentioned I will always have to fight.
May I also point out that I have never been back to that GP since. Strangely her husband is much more open to discussing my medical needs. That said, why does Fibromyalgia have to be such a dirty word?

My hands have been in pain for years but still use my hands all the time to do the smallest of tasks. Holding a cup of tea is a challenge these days as to even holding a pen.
Reality kicks in when your life changes and makes you appreciate the simple things in life.
Gentle hugs and thanks for sharing x

It takes ages to do the smallest task, at least if its the washing once its loaded you get a rest until its finished.
I hate the way people always say how well I look, when in fact I have forced myself to go out, I am at the end of my energy and they want to stop you in the streety and talk. I know in my heart that they mean well, but I wish they would just take a minute to think what they are saying, before they say it.
Its a constant battle, but onwards and upwards and fight the good fight.
Take care and gentle hugs x
