Try Me

How do you live with pain? You wake up every morning, back sore and nerves burning. The pressure in your head binds you to the bed and you beg your own body for mercy. Your neck feels like a train wreck as you clamber to your feet, and you greet the tightness in your chest with heart-wrenching defeat. As the day progresses, the pain only gets worse, you notice every stab and tingle, you scream, you cry, you curse. But one emotion under the pain beats all of the above - you are in control, to live, to laugh, to love. The ball is in your court. So many wars you've fought - you can always fight one more. How do you live with pain? You don't. Pain lives with you.
