Any day that I am not in the hospital is a good day.<br />There is much happiness to be derived from this.Jodiebodiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11377052537742885631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-703986833050265474.post-28734654698131132272013-11-06T12:21:34.513+10:302013-11-06T12:21:34.513+10:30Oh Rachel, I am blushing!

Thank you for your compliment.<br />I am trying to make the best of my situation and it gladdens me know that I can make a positive difference whether it be through living my life the best I can or through sharing my insights and experiences on Lupey Loops.<br />Your mother was a wise woman. Her words "dignity" and "grace" resonate with me as these notions are of ultimate importance in my heart to which I strive towards, especially during the difficult times. <br />I am touched by your words which have given me strength and determination.Jodiebodiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11377052537742885631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-703986833050265474.post-65889926770429598722013-11-05T14:17:23.022+10:302013-11-05T14:17:23.022+10:30As you know, my mother had cancer.

She once said to me that she didn't choose to have it but she could choose how she dealt with it and that she wanted to do so with dignity and grace. That reminds me of you. I love your attitude - you are an inspiration to me and I'm sure to many who know you personally or in the blogoshere. xoxoRachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10948588356904187536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-703986833050265474.post-23639959010081724092013-11-02T07:54:13.135+10:302013-11-02T07:54:13.135+10:30How great that you are able to share this.

I always wondered how other people could get so much done in one day, or could function on less than 9 hours of sleep when for me it was quite the accomplishment to get groceries AND get some work done around the house at the same day. I was always told to just "suck it up" but I guess people don't understand how much energy it takes to deal with the pain. <br />I agree with you that attitude is everything, and I find that people with chronic pain often are the most optimistic people I've ever met. We're not going to let this bring us down! We keep fighting. Right? One Badass Motherhttp://www.onebadassmother.comnoreply@blogger.com
