P.A. supposed to be mild with little or no limitations.On the other hand it can be quite severe. Guess who drew the short straw?
I have had to let go most of the things in life that were for me the most enjoyable. Mostly anything that involved getting around.
I own that pain, I have paid deerly for it and continue to this very hour. But just because I own that emotion I do not inflict my pain on other people. After all it was nothing they did that caused my almost constant pain.
My bride and my best friend have a little thing we do when I am really mad and want to blow off some steam.
We set a side some time dsuring which I get to act out my frustrations, fears or Mad as hell ats. Then when I am through I get back on the horse that threw me and get along.
I do this because I do not have a healthy option and it works for me.
We PA patients are a tough lot, we have to be. If we were not then most of us would not be here today.
We are a silent clan of tough people who fight it out with PA everyday we awake.
If arthritis had a special forces division we would all be Green Beret. The fact you are reading this is proof of just how strong you are, we are. SAINT Hey I am right there with you.
Keep fighting the good fight!
