Defeated

Posted by dgarza @dgarza, 5 hours ago

It’s been 6 years with this fatigue and pain. My life has changed so much. Lost my job while on fmla. Lost my car. Had to move in with my daughter and can’t be a medical assistant because I can only work a day or two a month 🙁
I don’t talk to anyone anymore because I feel like all I do is complain.
My family think I’m just “not taking care of myself enough”
My blood pressure is out of control and they found a aneurysm in my carotid artery 🫤
I’m only 42… long covid sucks

Remain strong in the faith. Be brave. And be loving in everything you do.

Indeed it does! However ——- we are upright (most of the time), mobile (with a cane) and taking nourishment. Tis a daily struggle. At 85.5, frustrated beyond words. Daily I ask “God! Why? What am I supposed to do with this mess? What is your plan ‘cause I am not seeing a clear path forward here.” So I take it a day at a time. Focusing on the opportunities as they appear to align my choices with the Great Commandment. We Love One Another as Christ Loved Us. Love your neighbor as yourself. Sounds great. sounds overly simple. It’s not it’s a daily struggle. Find the good stay strong . Onward.
