fibro friday 2...

fibro people are just super sensitive to EVERYTHING!
on a bad flare day, it's a challenge...
when it's really bad, you have to get quiet...
noise hurts...
you have to get somewhere dark...
light hurts...
you cannot have candles burning or even laundry...
because the smell hurts...
clothes have to be soft...
really, really soft...
or they hurt...
we have to be careful what we eat, drink, take for symptoms...
pain meds do not work on fibro...
muscle relaxers help more for me...
but they make me sleep all the time...
so I avoid them...
when I do take them, it's only half a dose...
I have room darkening shades in the bedroom...
big fluffy pillow...
soft, soft sheets and blankets...
it's my safe place when moments are bad...
weather changes, heat and cold are not my friend...
my body is not my friend...
some days are better than others...
but it never, ever goes away...
and we know we cannot complain about it...
no one wants to hear the truth...
so when you ask me how I am...
I simply reply...
I'm fine, how are you?
be well, be blessed...
and if you have fibro...
hang in there...
you got this...
keep praying...
keep moving...
and when you need to...
find your safe place until the major storm passes...


 

tend to the garden...

God's garden...
for yourself and others...
be the fruit...
blessings...

this...

 

oh, how true this is...
and when you follow Him...
and are obedient to Him...
you will be disliked by the enemies of God...
just know you are in the right place...
stay in the light, be the light, share the light...
be blessed....

as long as...

 

as long as we have faith in God above...
all these things are possible...
He is the key to our hearts...
and in Him is peace...
have good days...
