To my Healthy Friends

Postby Bobbie » Tue Jul 01, 2014 1:33 am

Living with C. difficile

Look inside my skin.
Walk inside my shoes.
I've been ill
Forever.

And tired of the fears.

I am weary
Of being cheery
Of being careful.
Of pretending to be me.

I'm not who I used to be.

Was going to erase it today but maybe I will leave it. It needs more work, however. Just made our reservation for our trip to the UK and am scared to death. Don't feel well - in so many ways, and it's a long hard trip. I was so sick last time I swore I would never go again.

I've had a bad week - got sick in a store and had to race home - long time since I had to do that. Now, my left hand is covered with a scaly rash. What now? Better not ask.

I just got a check for my last article - $80.00!!!!

Glad you are feeling better. I've had "off" days for a long time after every bout of C. diff. Damn the disease!!!
