If one more person tells me that if only I'd do more yoga or mediation or think more positively... Or juice, fast, eliminate entire food groups, add in entire food groups, or spin around 10 times in a blue polka dot dress.....

Sometimes I want to jump out of my half closed eyes and rant + rave slurred speech and all. If I only had the energy to get into downward dog. Honestly, most of my friends have a hard time accepting that their high achieving, athletic friend suddenly has a hard time walking around the block or opening her eyes. Those that "get it" have taken the time to research MG and for them I'm grateful.


Though I am new to MG, I am not new to chronic illness. I explain that it is better if they can simply offer support rather than suggestions.

Stay strong!
