Heart Rainbows in today

Lol... Ok maybe not rainbows exactly. But today has some bright spots since the original poster asked how today was...

This flu is finally tapering off. Slowly. This is awesome.

I had a good sleep last night. I cannot believe how much difference this makes.

I've washed dishes today. This is progress! My poor husband has been doing EVERYTHING. For three months and counting....

I was able to listen to worship music while doing dishes. Ahhh... does my heart good.

My son and I baked peanut butter cookies. He does my heart good.

I have so much to be thankful for and I will not let this pain steal these moments today. I will be present.

That's my day so far....

About it: October 26, 2012 I fell backward on an icy parking lot at work. I was on Workers Comp for 9 months. My PCS : everyday headaches became once in a while headaches, and neck pain became manageable. Still have occasional mild dizziness, sometimes fullness in the ears, convergence insufficiency, sequencing struggles, short term memory struggles, verbal processing delays. CT neg, MRI neg. Therapies: prism glasses, acupuncture, icing neck, resting, supplementing, Elavil 20mg at bedtime.

NEW: Completed 12 weeks of physical therapy and returned to work full time.

About me: I'm a marketing manager, a mom with a blended family and wife to a heart attack survivor. I believe my brain injury taught me more than it cost me. I'm grateful to still be me!
