โDear stranger, i was where you are a year and a half ago. Learning to flush a PICC line. That was my life. I've started painting again. It comes back so slowly you don't notice until one day you do.โ
โI was where you are in 2022. A spreadsheet of medicines and times on the fridge, every single day. Last month I had people round for dinner. The bad days get further apart. Hang on.โ
โI was in the same place eighteen months ago. For me it was crying in the car park before going in. I got a new job this spring. It comes back so slowly you don't notice until one day you do. Praying for you.โ
โI'm not going to tell you everything happens for a reason, it doesn't. But you can get through it, I did, and I'm not especially strong and someone told me to do one small thing a day, some days it's just a shower.โ
