Bad day?

Pictured is Janice Moore, my sister in law.

I thought I was having a bad day yesterday. It seemed I had to struggle to do everything. My fribromyalgia was really bad. I was so stiff and I was hurting so very bad. I always hurt with it, but some days are lots worse, and yesterday was one of those days. Unless you suffer with severe fribromyagia, you just can't imagine the pain that we victims, suffer.

You know those days when you're really sick, and you think to yourself, death would be better than this. Well I was almost there. I think they call it self pity. Which I'm not a very fond fan of. But I was almost there, that is until I received a phone call from my sister in law, Janice last night. She is fighting for her very life. trying to beat that evil disease we all call cancer. She has to travel all the way from Peterburgs VA. to Duke NC. to take her treatments. It's a long and tiring trip even for a healthy person.

When she called, at first I couldn't understand even who she was. But once I recognized her, I was so very happy to here from her. She sounded so chipper and so determined to not let herself be depressed about any of the trails she's been going though. She is a champion of a person in my opinion. I hope you all will keep her in you daily prayers.

After I finished talking to her, I seemed to have a different feeling within myself. Yes, I was hurting and stiff as a board. But I was determined I was going to climb out of that hole of self pity I was falling in.

Thanks Janice for reminding me that we all suffer. And it's not the trails that make us who we are. But it's how we live through those trails with faith and courage, that defines us.

And Janice, I love you so very much. I'm still praying for you every day.

Until next time God bless
