RIGHT WORD AT THE RIGHT TIME

today was a brand new day. i got to check in patients in for the first time in weeks. i had a blast just playing with patients.

i also had a great visit with teri. maybe it was just repeating the right thing at the right time. she said, and not the first person to do so, that the fatigue may just be a reality that i have to live with. it may very well be because of the meds. my conclusion is that if i want stability, than i may have to accept this as my reality. this sucks, but it may be just how it is for the foreseeable future. i just seem a little more open to it today. i guess the timing was right. i told her about my visit yesterday and my poor metabolism, and that reality. she also seemed to know just what to say. she reminded me of what i have accomplished, how far i can run, literally, and how much weight i have lost, even with the metabolism of a sloth. she reminded me to give myself those positive affirmations periodically.

i thought i was doing well when i walked in, but she saw right through me. she saw what was going on with me, and somehow know what to say to help me feel better, or to help me draw the necessary conclusions. i take great comfort working with someone with that gift.

overall i had a great day.
