I get frustrated with the changes in this disease.  To feel great one day and like poop the next is disappointing.  On top of that, I had an MRI and I need to go see my doctor.  I know there are...

I am very inspired today and hopeful about my health.  I spent 3 days with our 5th grade classes in Catalina.  The trip was better than last year.  I went kayaking and snorkeling.  I was very...

Today it is a beautiful fall-like day.  It has been the hottest fall in southern California.  The cool air feels good.  So far I have had a healthy fall.  The heat did wipe me out (of course) but...

Thinking about organizing your day can also be tiring.  Friends and family don't realize how much effort I put out daily.  Simple things for them are difficult for me.  I was a type A.  I could...

Well, I am finally the Bionic Woman.  My aunt helped be splurge and purchase the Bioness Walk Aide.  I have been using it for three weeks.  I have seen marked improvment in the flexibility of my...

I am excited about the prospect of looking into the Bioness Walk Aide.  It is new and not covered by my insurance.  My aunt said she would pay.  I can't wait to find out if I qualify.  it could...

It is amazing how each day brings something new.  Last Monday I was crazy tired (that is what I call the exhaustion from this disease).  And I had done nothing extreme that day or the weekend...

Sometimes I just don't feel like battling this disease.  It is so difficult to stay positive.  I so miss all the things that I once could do.  Especially going for a run or doing a really hard...

So, at the New Year, I set a goal of staying positive and recording weekly those things I am grateful for.  Well I have not done either very well.  It is funny, when I pray for patience or help...

So far I have not done very well at my New Years Goals.  I have been Diet Coke free since New Years Day.  That is an accomplishment.  I was drinking to much soda.  My goal is to make it until the...

It is hard to believe it is 2009.  How does time pass so quickly?  Time is so strange.  Sometimes I think back and wonder if I really had the life I had.  I miss so much all the things I used to...

What an odd thought, discomfort can be a blessing.  My job has been so supportive of all the physical changes.  Today was the first day of school.  In case you did not know, I used to teach...

I haven't written in three weeks.  I have been tired.  Some days are good, some days bad, and most days are  a struggle to be honest.  I do darn well at staying positive, but some days just drag...

Day one.  Goals: To remain positive, see beauty around me, to find peace in the discomfort, to be patient with others, and to live the day to the fullest.
