September 9, 2021 - One decade... be present.

It’s been a decade since I got sick. I didn’t know then, that night, that my life was dramatically changed. I’ve done therapies, and they’ve all helped, but I’m not totally “fixed.” I’ve had tremendous loss. But I also have a lot to be grateful for. The loss and gratitude are two sides of the same life. And there’s a lot in between those two sides. 

So, I try to stay in the present. One day at a time. Focus on what I have control over. Problem-solve when I need to. Do the best I can. Be aware of what I have done, and can do. Try not to take the good things for granted. 

Enjoy my pets, being able to take walks, staying connected to friends and family through the wonders of technology. One day at a time. Be present.
