It’s hard to see a loved one hurt.

It’s hard to watch one of your husband’s best friends be laid to rest at the age of 35.

It’s hard to understand why.

But, maybe that is not for us to understand.

date: Saturday, January 28th.

location: my couch under my cozy blanket.

1.  Medical Stuff:

• 3 Days of Home Rehab.
• I had my 6 month follow-up with Bev (Dr. Grubb) for POTS on Monday.
• I had my yearly EDS follow-up with Dr. Lavallee on Thursday.
• My ribs feel like they are going to collapse.  Not cool.  Not cool at all.

After a week of traveling, teaching, appointments, and rehab, this pretty much sums it up for me tonight…

As I think about the post I just published, something is bothering me.  I feel like I need to back up a bit, because I feel like I made “exercising” with POTS and EDS sound like such a simple thing to do.  And if you have POTS and/or EDS, you know that it is definitely NOT easy.

I wish they had bumper stickers that said this.  Because it’s true.  Very, very true.

This is something I never thought I would say.  But that’s life.  It can change on you in an instant.
