Chronic

Living with chronic conditions is not easy,
hosting one’s own pity party, feeling somewhat queasy,
longing for those light and breezy days of easy peasy!

Lovely on the surface, Andrea. Too bad about the underlying reality of living with pain though... Hugs, Line xx

You look so health, but I do know you are having health issues. May the Lord lay his hands on you. Nicely written, good luck in the contest. Hugs Eve

thanks,I am the perfect picture of health except with an alien body given to me by the doctor who had me take prolia injections for two years before i stopped cold turkey and never went back to him. I feel as if wind is blowing on my back half the time and my mouth is constantly changing. today at this moment it feels like wool. Other times it can feel like plastic. sometimes I can barely stand it, right now I can tolerate it. Weirdest stuff that nobody in the world seems to have experienced except myself.
