Disoriented

Just threw up on myself so this week is starting off strong 

I can’t feel my left foot and last night my entire body weight and walker were on it and I didn’t realize until I looked down and saw it. I already know I’m going to break it somehow. It’s not a matter of if it’s when.

I feel like I’m living in a fantasy world;  I feel disoriented often. I hope it clears soon, Little things are hard now. This post took a great deal of effort to write,

Plateau immobility

I feel as though I’m having what most would refer to as “religious struggles.” When people say “it’s God’s plan” or “He’ll be there for you” I want to scoff in their face. Where the f*ck has he been. There is no way God’s plan for me included this much struggle. It can’t be. I’ve since put it back on, but I didn’t wear my Miraculous Mary medal for awhile. I really hope there’s someone out there looking out for me, whether it’s God or some other power.  I have not legitimately prayed in awhile and so I didn’t want to submit high demands. Because of this, I did not pray for a cure - that seemed unreasonable. I asked simply for tomorrow to be better than today.  I took mobility for granted. You don’t realize how critical it is - until you can’t. I would do almost anything to be able to independently walk my dog around the block. Or even just walk around the house without my walker. That seems like a reasonable goal.  I hope my time isn’t coming to a close. I have so much I w...

2024 Reflection

Lately my left eye and side of my face have been really bothering me; since this is the numb eye/side, i’ve been looking at this annoyance as positive. Meaning hopefully the nerves are attempting to heal.  I saw everyone’s 2024 wrapped posts and it made me sort of sad. I barely have any photos that are positive or worthy to be shared because of cancer and treatment. I made sure to not take any photos for awhile during the year because of how swollen my body and face were from the steroid treatment. I don’t have any photos of Cody and I together the night we got engaged because I was so unhappy with how I looked. That was my own choice and I need to live with it now. I hope 2025 is better.  With how awful 2024 was, it will forever be remembered as one of my best years. My beautiful niece was born in August and I got to marry my best friend in November. These two core events will always be so special. They are/were truly bright beams of light in a year of darkness. I need to rem...

27

I turned 27 yesterday. It felt slightly odd because for a long time it was a birthday I didn’t think i’d see.  I feel like my old self died this year or it’s being held prisoner by a stupid & mentally slow version of myself. I’m not sure if it’s just my poor hearing but even my voice sounds different. In the disabilities form for work my doctor had to complete when I was still employed, they noted mental slowness as a reason for me being unable to work. The doctor noted that this state is temporary and will improve with time. I don’t mean to be impatient but it’s been 8 months and I feel stupider than I ever have. I used to have faith in this state of confusion being temporary but lately it feels permanent. I guess I should start getting used to it. I got married at the end of November. It was an incredibly special day surrounded by family. It’s hard because I often feel guilty. Cody is such a bright and adventurous person and i’m in a consistent state of fatigue. Mar...
