Embracing life with chronic pain and illnesses.

Wrestling Match

I am likening the past several days….the past several weeks…actually could say this past year….to a wrestling match!

Each day brings a “new” opponent….some are much stronger….larger…others appear to just toy with me….

The challenge of taking on each day is draining…what little energy reserves are available are quickly taken…

Yet I continue to wrestle with whatever symptoms are attacking on any given day….mental resolve is taxed…..

Yes…there are days that are much harder than others…..when it feels that my body and mind will break….

At those times, when praying….God always finds a way to help restore some mental strength…

It can be in the form of our son and his crazy actions….an email….a text….a phone call…..or our dog gently placing his head on my lap….as if he could feel and understand my pain…

The overwhelming aches….the throbbing and stabbing sensations throughout the body……the muscle spasms…..the headaches….the burning….the intense Fibro Fog….the extreme fatigue…

These continue….each and every moment…..

Yet…there will come a day when I will find some sort of relief….some type of reprieve…if only for a short while…
