MORE PAIN, PRESSURE AND FATIGUE

I know for a fact that I would not have made it until the 29th. Just a few more days to go!
Along the way I've had people tell me that I am "brave," and an "inspiration." I'm not sure what that means when I'm relying on Dr Bahador to save my life. It is just another obstacle that I have to deal with at this time. I am enjoying some of the smaller things along the way.
Just a favorite story: One of the things happens to be an antique gadget that hubby bought for me during a trip to a mountain bed & breakfast. The place was modeled after the Victorian era full of antiques from that time also. The place was shutting down and we were some of the last guests to stay there. I happened upon the "gadget" called a stereocope. It is kind of like a view master from when I was a kid - except it has lenses and square picture cards that you put on the end of it. We also bought the cards as well. Some of them are old...from the turn of the previous century. Because I can't move around as much right now I get to fiddle around a little more. No, I am not bored or completely helpless. I am just enjoying what I can for the time being.
For me at least, enjoyment of life is a choice, no matter how trivial the activity may be or how much pain I'm going through. I'm taking life moment by moment right now, and yes there is some enjoyment along the way...
