@MammaT I had no idea you were dealing with cancer. I’m so sorry if my analogy above seemed at all flippant. I pray you will find healing. After all you’ve been through, and are going through, your positivity and thoughtfulness are truly inspirational. Thank you - and everyone - for taking the time and effort to boost me up.
Today is an awful day for me. The sun is shining, birds are chirping, but I feel just totally exhausted and in pain. I worry so that if something were to go additionally wrong - if I needed a dentist, or specialist or optometrist - I’d be up a creek without a paddle because I cannot sit in the car and cannot ride in an ambulance. Can’t even sit on a chair for longer than a couple minutes with this new coccyx and SIJ problem. Even the coccyx pillows don’t help. And lying prone is awful for one’s digestion and inner workings.
But as MaamaT says, we must take things one day at a time. Buddhist philosophy says that living in the future creates anxiety, living in the past creates depression. Living in the now is all there really is - the point of all power. I have done one walk up the driveway today, but was dizzy during and after. I have days when my BP is very low, so it makes me breathless and whoozy. Hopefully I’ll get back my energy soon and have some good news to report.
