Hello my lovey doves! I am just popping in quickly to let yinz know I HAVE NOT DISAPPEARED FROM THE FACE OF THE EARTH! i have NOT DISAPPEARED LIKE I DID ON YOUTUBE! I am here – I am just one crazy busy chickie – this weekend was … interesting (I proved something to myself, however, which is something “post” worthy! I will discuss that later!) – but more information to follow! Today I have already driven 3 hours, have gotten most of my “work” done, and have a SECOND PROSTHODONTIST APPOINTMENT TO LOOK FORWARD TO! I had to reschedule my appointment with one of my spine doctors (yes, plural) because there just is not enough time in the day for all of these appointments. I am sure those of you with chronic illness can relate to that! I always say this (one of my “infamous” sayings!):
“HAVING CHRONIC ILLNESS OR CHRONIC DISEASE IS LIKE HAVING A FULL TIME JOB … THAT YOU HAVE TO PAY FOR!”
That is all too true! There are very few weeks in which I enjoy even a day or two off from “appointments” of some sort (when I had to go to PT that was nutsy!). At any rate, I will be back later this evening with any luck – I am wishing you all a happy and healthy day wherever you are in the world and please know MY HEART is ALWAYS with YOU!!
❤ Always, Beth

I have been living with chronic illness since I was 2 months old. My first "formal" chronic illness diagnosis was Behçet's Disease - I was 17 at the time. I was later diagnosed with Common Variable Immune Deficiency (I more or less led the doctors to that diagnosis - that story is for another time!) and those have been my "primary" two illnesses. I have many other "secondary" diagnoses such as seronegative Rheumatoid Arthritis, Chiari 1 Malformation (a result, I believe, of the Behçet's causing aseptic meningitis time and again since it had never appeared in brain scans before I was about 24-25), osteoporosis, compression fractures of the thoracic spine, and many others. I know what it is like to feel as if you have lost years of your life that you can never recover from illness and the many restrictions it places upon you in your everyday life. I just want you to know that I know what it is like and I have been there through every period of my life - you are NOT ALONE! Please do not hesitate to contact me if you ever need someone to talk with or someone just to listen to you - I am always here! Thank you for taking the time to read this and my other posts and I hope you are having a happy and healthy day no matter where you are in the world! Take care.
