Hey everyone - I miss you so much!
I hope everyone had a good Christmas. My autoimmune disease is still flared up since August, and I have not been able to function very much. I started writing this on Christmas night 3 months later, hoping that more relief is around the corner. It has been a horrible journey and I thought that if I could do something that I used to do, it might make me feel a little more hopeful and a little better.
Hashimotos Encephalitis affects my brain function and at different parts of the day. It was 10pm when I started it, but in the mornings I am foggy and nervous and confused getting dressed and getting ready. I was not sure if I would come back another day and finish this, but I thought it would feel good to start it since I have had a really emotional holiday. It is New Year's Eve now 4pm and I am finishing it. So that is something to be proud of. I hope more are to come.
I feel so hopeless sometimes, but I will not give up. I am blessed to have the most wonderful and loving parents and family and friends in the world, so I am thankful for that, or I would be in such worse shape. Here goes nothing. If it doesn't make sense, bear with me, I am trying really hard. I love you guys. I hope in a couple months we can look back on this post and see how far I have come. That would be such an amazing feeling.
I am putting it into the universe now. I will be better next year and look back on this and see how far I have come.
