Life as I know it

Life as I know it is….different.

Everything has changed and there’s really no way to describe how I feel.

I know what I think is important, who is important and how I want to spend my time.

I’ve learned about myself and about the kind of person I want to be.

I’m proud of myself for continuing to fight.

My days are and will continue to be … filled with doctors appointments, therapy and time with the family.

I continue to try to remain positive and be thankful for what I have as opposed to what I have lost.

I am very aware of the importance of focusing on my recovery and I am thankful to my friends and family for being so understanding of this.

I know how much I appreciate things I once took for granted…reading to my children, walking outside, sitting in a coffeeshop.

I consider myself  lucky because life as I know it … is getting better everyday.
