In the past month, I have lost, to death, three pets, one very unexpectedly.
A loved one had planned surgery. During his recovery from that, he got pneumonia and is now back in the hospital.
A person very close to me was diagnosed with cancer yesterday.
A week ago, my back gave out.
I am stunned. Numb. I can barely cry. I am tired. I am emotionally paralyzed. And I can barely walk.
This year has been draining.
And then there is the state of this country in which I live.
I’m not even going to go there.
I just can’t even….
Elizabeth, I like the post but not what is going on in your life. They say, when it rains, it pours. First priority is getting YOU well and walking again.

Thank you, Cathy. I don’t like what’s going on, either.

Oh Elizabeth, I’m so sorry. I don’t even know what to say. I feel the same way you do minus the hospital issues. My Dad used to say that it’s always darkest before the dawn. Hugs.

Thanks, Roberta. All of this might be a tad more tolerable if I could walk without excruciating pain.

It’s one of those times in your life and it will pass ( hard to believe, I know ). Sometimes sharing the grief helps to move on. Take care of that back too. Hope the doctors find a solution. Btw, really enjoy your writing style.
