Starting to relive it now!

Yes, a year ago the events were just starting to unfold that led to my diagnosis and to where I am today. It seems like such a long time ago with all that's happened since then and, yet, it's only been a year.

Time flies when you're having fun, I guess, But this has really been no fun. Yes, I feel great and that's certainly a God given blessing. But, not being able to get on with any semblance of a normal life is downright (I don't want to say depressing because that's too strong a word) exasperating(I guess that that's a better choice).

Of course, I guess it's better to be exasperated than possessing other feelings of not being well or just plain not being at all.

We had some friends over for dinner tonight and it's always nice to have company. I never have much to say because I don't get out much to interact with other people and to have interesting stories to tell. But, then again, there are those who would say that I never had anything to say anyway - so, what's the difference!

Now the holidays are just around the corner. I know for sure that Thanksgiving will be better this year since I was in the hospital on Thanksgiving day last year. Christmas, too, will not be spent here at home either. So, without a doubt, progress has been made.

Still keeping the faith...
