The tears I won’t shed or admit that I do

Somewhat good news from the doctor
The Visit to The Doctor Amazingly enough my little brave soul was really good during this process. Even when he got blood drawn for the first time, he did very good.

My life in seasons If my life was described in seasons, I can say I feel stuck in the middle of the winter right now. There is a snow storm and my only shelter is a tent. I am cold, wet, uncomfortable and distressed. I don’t know how long this […]

What about the future!
Losing Purpose Yes I am a fighter and I am strong. That could be a good thing or a bad thing, when fighting a disease like mine. Good thing for obvious reasons. Bad thing for not so obvious reason. See strong people are used to having a goal, accomplishing tasks […]

I don’t know what you see!
