On this wedding anniversay,I am grateful
October 15th 2008 04:38
It is 31 years together.We have grown up together,really.We were young and of course most people did not think we'd make it.We have raised three beautiful,strong daughters.We have four wonderful grandchildren.
Throughout our life together,we have been through many things.Just look at the world has changed at lightning speed.
These past ten years have been the most trying.We expect to get older.We expect changes.But what migraine disease has done to our life is change who I am.I cannot be the person I am inside.I mourn for the person I was.I long for the person I could be and the life we should have together.
The past four years though,have been the worst,as migraine progressed into chronic,daily high level pain.I have been bedridden,with few exceptions.I have missed out on holidays,birthdays,family get togethers.
Spending so many hours,days,nights in a fetal position.Not wanting to die,but not wanting to live this way.
My husband and children have taken me on many trips to the er.It has been a nightmare.
I will say that recently,I am having better days than bad.So,this gives me hope.
Today,I reflect on 30 years of a life with the person I love.And I look to a future of getting migraine under control.Becoming the person I want to be,for us to have the life I know that is meant to be.
