Adapt
& Overcome
Wow guys,
I have had such an amazing response to this blog. This one goes out to all my homies…
Thank you
so much for your support, thanks for reading and thanks so much for taking the
time to email me your kind words, it really has given me a warm, fuzzy feeling
inside. It’s lovely to know so many
people care. I genuinely thought I’d
have about 20 views on this blog but I’m in the thousands now and it’s just great
to know I’m getting my message across.
One lady said she hadn’t smiled for weeks and my blog made her
smile. That makes me so happy! =0)
Some
people have said it makes them sad to know I go through all this but I can
honestly, hand on my heart say that I’m happy. Yes, I do go through a lot, yes
I deal with a lot of pain but I’m honestly so happy right now. I don’t even think I would change my
life. That might sound crazy to you but
its true. Of course when I was diagnosed
(3yrs ago) it was devastating, my whole life changed and it felt like this was
the worst thing EVER but once I accepted it, I embraced it. I think it was Jack Osborne who said recently
‘adapt and overcome’ that is such a good saying and it really rings true for
me.
Obviously
I have my down days and I think that’s fine, it’s normal but I would say 90% of
the time I’m happy. This illness has
given me a whole new perspective on life.
I’ve lost friends but I’ve gained friends, I know who is worth my time
now. I live for the moment, I appreciate
life so much more than before and I will never take my health for granted
again.
Life’s
good. Lupus – you have not won. You are a LOSER! LOOOOOOSSSEER!
XXXX
