I remember a time, not too long ago, when I believed that having a good day or a bad day was in my control. I was pretty good at adjusting and taking on a new plan if that was needed. Currently I am in more of a free fall.
The doctor is pretty insistent that the knee replacement is a must. I don’t have the time, money, energy or desire to deal with it. I have learned pretty well how to deal with the constant pain. I think that I believe my body is breaking down for a reason. It was designed to be that way. I wasn’t made to last forever.
My husband asked last night if I was simply doing things I have to do or was I doing things I love to do. I am really not sure if there are things that I love to do any longer. I am often just sore, tired and overwhelmed with the simple act of living.
Computer says it is time to go to work. So I do what is required.

Sorry about your condition. Don’t you have health insurance that will bear the costs? Most of my treatment is covered by health insurance.
