I saw Joyce today - she pointed out
some positives, encouraged me to keep trying... I also heard Christina's voice
in my head sometimes... & so I did this sign today - I know Ann (vision
therapy) will like it -
AND I said to myself "having to
keep trying is hard, but it's what I have to do... & this is a GOOD sign...
running the household MATTERS - it's part of what allows me and my hubby to
still be living independently in our home - that's HUGE actually... I need to
keep reaching out with phone calls - I can definitely handle those better than
I used to... being creative is good, for a lot of reasons... and phone calls will
help me feel connected"
AND in the end, I can allow myself
to sometimes feel really down, but I've GOT to keep going... let myself register
every single thing that's good, no matter how tiny.... FINALLY, remember there
are others out there with their struggles... some of them maybe reading these
words - we ALL have to keep going!"
