Sometimes lupus life overwhelms me and every fear, anxiety, frustration, anger, pain and sadness pours out of my eyes, flooding my cheeks. I’m content not knowing why I cried. Maybe my body felt too much and it decided to weep on my behalf.
I apologize for my lengthy leave of absence on my blog. There has been dissention in my body – lupus complications plague me. I’m running on a lupus hamster wheel (and not losing any weight in the process – thank you very much).
I haven’t written for a while and I apologize. Lupus dominated my life over the past couple of months. The physical and emotional stress all culminated into a lupus meltdown.
I want to share some happy lupus blog news with you and I promise to explain my reason why at the end of my article. (No cheating and scrolling to the end.)
I received an email announcing that my blog was chosen as one of the top 30 lupus blogs. Feeling dumbfounded is an understatement. You could have knocked me over with a feather (as one of my friends says).
The top three things you can do right now to reduce the pain of your chronic disease. These three methods have been shown to significantly reduce pain and put many conditions into remission.
I woke up with a romantic notion, feeling dared to find ways in which having lupus is not always a bad thing. Surely somewhere in this, or any chronic disease, there has to be a tiny bit of positivity.
My vision is a place where people with chronic illnesses can own homes and live among fellow spoonies. A spoonie community. A spoonity.
