@taylor05 you will be in my heart today! Your struggle is real, and thank you for sharing your story. Chronic illnesses and pain are vastly misunderstood, and our endurance and strength tested in more ways than we could ever have guessed.
Continue your path, this journey, knowing we share your pain and confusion. Only those who experience such tests, treatments and chaos (hopefully their medical team/friends/family too) can even begin to comprehend mentally, much less physically.
My teaching hospital is a 2 hr. drive. The 4 hour trip and tests, etc., is draining. Yet I am so blessed and grateful for the six Specialty areas who organize and work together to provide my care. Also my supportive spouse, he's a trouper, these long years of illness shaping our lives so unexpectedly.
May you feel at least a brief moment of peace in the midst of your day today!

Thank you so much and my husband is a rock and trooper.. lol 😆 anything I need or want he's doing it. He's 73 this month too. I'm 67. He stays in fair shape though. I'll give him that. He plays golf when he can each week. Time with his friends are needed. I'm just not hanging with my friends right now with this Cancer issue right now. Coughing way to much anyway. Feel terrible.. 😆 I will soon. They all keep me up! I'm glad you have light in your life! It helps out so much! My daughter is a PA and had us move in her inlaw quarters a few years ago. Sold our home. It works great. Especially now. She's very involved. Dr's talk to her and James and they tell me. Put anything in my calendar needed. I have cognitive issues since strokes and connective tissue disease can cause it too. I am doomed to that. Thank you for your story too. May it all go well for you!!

Thx for reading, appreciate you!
