I call this picture "light of day" you will understand why.
Recently saw someone with Lymphedema who has never been treated. She is not ready to accept that this is a serious and progressive condition. I have spoken to her many times with little impact.
Although I feel I have a lot to offer via encouragement, every time I see her, I am encouraged. I am encouraged to take care of my legs, for I see where this can lead.
Although the pain is ever present; this has been a fairly good week. I am still having trouble identifying what type of pain I'm having. I have decided it is better to live with the pain than continue to take over the counter medications or prescriptions and end up with additional health issues. Although I am told that this is a progressive condition, I do not expect to live with chronic pain forever. I don't know which will come first, deliverance/healing or a medical breakthrough. But something is around the bend. I feel it!
As stated in previous posts, I am starting to think about my future and what that entails. Will I maintain my independence? Will I continue to use a cane? Will it get worse before it gets better? What can I expect? Questions...so many questions.
