How to get through the days

[Guest guest]

Hey Everyone! I've been a member for a long time now. While I don't post as much

as I used to, I do read. Welcome to all the " newbies " . I'm sorry this horrible

disease has brought you here, but I'm glad you found this group as I have found

LOTS of information, suggestions and research (thanks, ) as well as true

compassion (thanks, everyone) for what we deal with on a daily basis. Especially

considering we're all in the same boat. And its NOT sinking.

I wanted to share with you something that made the proverbial " light bulb " go on

with me. Its called " The Spoon Theory " - written by a woman with Lupus, but the

principle of her theory can apply to us all. Check out her site:

I hope you enjoy this article as much as I have. Keep posting. We're here for

each other to vent, whine, holler, complain... whatever you need to say. We're

it! I hope you have pain free days.....

Hi Doreen.

 

I have missed your posts, and was glad to see yours today.

 

I hope you are feeling better.  I know you have been struggling with your RA

for quite awhile.  How is your pain management working out?  I keep praying

you will get news of your acceptence for SSDI.  It has taken much too long for

them to decide.

 

I know you must be enjoying this wonderful weather here.  I am loving it and in

my pool every day.

 

Take care of yourself, and hope you are resting as much as you.

 

Love and hugs,

 

Barbara
