Default Overcame a hurdle

My husband and I were asked to play an hour set of our music tonight at a music hall. I haven't played on stage since my MG went generalized. I was really worried whether my voice would let me down. I rested all day. I timed my mestinon so that I took a pill exactly one hour before the set. I sang better than I have in years. Maybe ever! I also was able to play my guitar well. My hands stayed strong. I am so happy!

An hour after the show, I was really fatigued. My ptosis went psycho. My vision was blurred. My voice went out, my ear stopped up, and I had a hard time walking.

But I did it. I sooooooooo don't want to give up singing. Over half of the songs are songs that I wrote. I think that I can do this. At least for now. We were asked to come back in November!
