"Walking with boot cast. Between okay/bad. Finally a bit of relief from pain. Feels so good to be able to walk (carefully)."

Trying so hard to keep up my spirits! Mood
Saturday, October 31, 2009 | A Frustrating story

It is so hard when you cannot walk.  I tried to emphasize with people who were in pain or disabled before I became disabled with pain, etc.  But, I never fully understood it until it came tumbling down on me.  I am trying to line up some support as I do not have any at home.  My body is so tired from getting from A to Z and the pain/nerve stuff.  I have to just tell myself that this will only make me stronger, right?  I think I need a good joke about right now.

Happy Halloween everyone.

    Many like to say that what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. We are experiencing ways where I just don't think that platitude applies. The longer I go with this, the weaker I get. I really can't think of any, not one, way that I am stronger now than before my pain set in. I could make a long list of ways that I am weaker. I wish I could think of a good, short joke to put here, but I'm drawing a blank. If you get trick-or-treaters where you live, maybe seeing some of the cute kids tonight will give you some pleasure and enjoyment.

    Trick or treat!
