Cry those tears out all you can. They're toxic. All of this is so

overwhelming. It takes a while to put some time/distance between you and the

diagnosis. As this happens you'll find a way to cope better. I always felt

that you've got a lot of fight in you, . You'll get in touch with your

inner strength and soon be giving this cRaP hell. I rooting for you.

Subject: just an update

Hello everyone!

Today has been an emotionally difficult day. I had to go to 2

different locations to get my temporary disabled parking permit, and

by the time I was in the right place (on the opposite end of

Seattle from where I started), I was shaking so badly in line at the

Dept. of Licensing, and there were no chairs, I thought I was going

to collapse. Then I had counseling and ended up crying through the

whole appointment, which I never do.

I think the last two months have been very hard and I only had my

first 1/ 2 day without pain yesterday, and realized how much I have

been living with and adjusting to. So, all of that to say I know

that it makes sense that some of the emotions are catching up to me,

but it's challenging nonetheless. \

Thank you all for being here and sharing your experiences and your

support. I couldn't do this without all of you.

Take care,
