Life isn't easy


I have begun physical therapy. I've only had two sessions so not looking to go dancing or run a marathon. I realize this isn't going to heal overnight and I have to be patient. Just wish that while one part of my life was out of kilter the rest would remain on course.

 

Just feeling really old and alone lately. Life marches on and rather than be run over, I find a way to keep on going.

 

I offer this one piece of advice to those who might read it. Be careful what you say. You never know what weight your words have. Remember a simple greeting and wishing someone a good day can go a long way to improving someone's day. A rude comment or insulting remark, even made off the cuff, can cut someone as easily as a knife can. Words have power and they can go a long way toward healing or hurting someone. Think carefully before you speak.

:hug: I'm so sorry hun. Recovery takes time, long ... frustrating ... time. But you can do it. You can get to a point where things don't hurt so much, I promise. I won't promise pain free, but things WILL get better.

 

I can't offer too many words about the other stuff ... but know that when you're in pain, sometimes things can be harder to take. Cut yourself some slack when you consider how you react, but you can't always help it.

My therapist has twenty years on me, and is married with grandchildren. So all I get out of therapy is a little electro stim to my back, some hot compresses, and a lot of stretching. No eye candy, and nothing to make distract me from what has to be done. I don't know if that is good or bad. lol
