We spent some time last month visiting my best friend up around Lake Erie. It was a fun weekend spent shopping at a huge outdoor market. I have never seen so many fresh vegetables and fruit. I actually saw some fruit that I had never heard of. It was fun shopping and then cooking all the fresh veggies. Wish I lived closer and could shop there regularly. After eating good food we hiked through Cuyahoga Falls. It was beautiful and the falls were fast and full due to a lot of rain. The hiking made us sleep well.
I am feeling better these days and my energy is returning. I am thanking and blessing those lady health care professionals for helping me. The thing that really gave me that extra nudge to call them was the fact that my eyebrows were falling out. It sounds strange but despite feeling so tired and yucky all the time, the thought of no eyebrows was starting to concern me. I am hoping now that what I have left will remain. Slowly but surely everyday I continue to feel better and better. Our body tells us when something is not right and we need to pursue getting medical help when we feel badly for long stretches of time. We must learn not to give up because a doctor or anyone tells us we are just being whinny. I had some severe deficiencies that had messed up my whole body, biorhythms, and hormonal system. These deficiencies were starting to cause all kinds of health problems. I hope I continue to get well. Remember that when your body hurts and feels tired, it is trying to tell you something is not right. Keep advocating for yourself by asking for help and eventually someone will hear you. Don't give up.
It's caregiver month and all caregivers remember to take of yourself. We are appreciated and needed and sometimes we need someone to take care of us. Don't feel ashamed to ask for help. Be strong and stick up for yourself. You are in control of your life.
PS. I managed to wear pink everyday in October for all those who have battled breast cancer. My mother-in-law was smiling from heaven.
Life is beautiful !!
