Guest guest Posted October 7, 2004 Report Share Posted October 7, 2004 I tell myself there's more to life than this endless pain. Maybe I'm just whinning cuz I hurt so bad right now. But thanks for putting up with my mind. Now back to the 165 e-mails. OH the quilt is now on the wall ready to be sewn for the top. It's beautiful purples. Love ya all, Laurie Laurie, First of all you are not whinning you are venting and it is very hard to see beyond the pain if you are hurting so much. There will be better days ahead, just hold on. I will keep you in my prayers. Lin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 7, 2004 Report Share Posted October 7, 2004 >Laurie So many days Ive had that question. I just have to try and find the brightest part of my day and dwell on that instead of the relentless pain that seems to have become a part of my life. There are definetely days that will be less painful just as there are days that are more painful. Try and remember those days that are good. In the meantime, never worry about venting here, its a safe place for saying exactly how you feel and having others understand. Have a better night and tlk to you soon Love Donna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 8, 2004 Report Share Posted October 8, 2004 Laurie, Good to hear you are coming out of your fog... I can tell you, for me at least, that I am not miserable all the time. I am in pain, but I get to stages that are "bearable". I realize most times that is the best I'm going to do, and try to be grateful for it. I love the sound of your quilt.. Purple is my favorite color.. I'm sure it's beautiful. Hang in there, better days are (somewhere) ahead. Hugs, Jo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 9, 2004 Report Share Posted October 9, 2004 Laurie, You sound so down, I wish I had some words of comfort to offer you. I wish I could tell you it will get better but for me that has not happened so I don't know. I just want you to know that you are not alone, even if I have to go for long periods without posting I'm always thinking of you and everyone in the group, and praying that at least some of us are able to find some relief. My body is failing me miserably and I don't know how much longer I will be able to continue on as I have been, with work and everything, but I'm trying not to get defeated yet. I'm still fighting and sometimes I don't know why or if it's worth it, but I'm telling you this so maybe you won't give up the fight either. I know none of us are living the lives we thought we would, but I try to look at what is happening with me and say ok, what good can come out of this. Maybe I'm meant to go back home to help my sister with her 6 kids. Maybe instead of being a burden to her should I need to go live with her, I could be a help. Maybe I can find some type of job, even part time, that will help people, or maybe I can just put all my energy into fighting this and getting the word out. I don't know if this makes sense but I'm always thinking and trying to turn all of this into a positive...to create a life for myself that will be worth living. Anyway, didn't mean to go on and on but please know you are not alone and don't give up...if you ever need to talk I'm here. <hugs> Lori Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
