Heart It has taken me seven years to accept my disease!

Hey Bob... I'm back! I love your advice, and I often hear you in my head when I'm doing things like "walking barefoot on the kitchen floor" or not sticking to my medications on a regular schedule.

I was diagnosed seven years ago. I am FINALLY accepting the fact that I will never wear high heels again. That I will probably never work a real job again. That I can't live in a 2 story house, and that no matter how much my brain "thinks" I can do, my body just isn't going to keep up!

Learn to accept it, make the adjustments, and your life will be a lot easier.
The biggest lesson this disease has taught me... and the hardest lesson, has been humility! Many of you who have been here a while know, asking for help for me has been the biggest challenge of my life! I finally got over that.

All of you here still guide me daily, even if I'm not here reading your messages. But that's why I'm back. I miss you all!
