Aww, dearest @lioness, I had to to back and read your post multiple times over the past two days. I appreciate your wise, kind words more than you know.

I am so sorry that you are in so much pain. I can certainly empathize with you. I am in a Fibroflare, and all my joints and nerves are giving me the level of pain that I have grown accustomed to. I have been somewhat productive in spite of these awful condirions. And I really do have a lot to be thankful for.

I am really grateful for the life I have. Even with unrelenting pain, I can smile and keep going. Our human nature tells us there's always something new and good around the corner. If we indeed look for the good, we will find it.

Speaking of good, Mayo Clinic is. Good. I have recommended them multiple times this week in person and online. I will not hesitate to go to the local (4hours away) Mayo Clinic Campus in Jacksonville Florida, if my latest meds do not work out.

Thank you for your valuable time and your kindness. I look forward to meeting you in person one day! Until then,
Adios,
Mamacita
