I don't thinks so!

I could not have a stranger or someone I didn't know come in and clean

my bathroom or do my dishes. Although if the budget allowed for it I

would pay for a service or a company to come in to do it. So my answer

is yes and no I guess.

I have to rely alot on my family for help with the things I struggle to

do or can no longer do.

I want to keep and maintain what I can. But it has been hard for me to

accept my limitations. I keep thinking I am going to get back to being

ME.

I wouldn't call it pride necessarily, perhaps someone else looking in

would call it that. So Maybe I am having pride too, I don't know?

But I don't see it as a bad thing. We are all doing the best we can!

HTH,

Take care,

Katrina

I really hope others will post on this thread. I too am interested in

what others have to say. :-)
