Dear TMers I was moved to write this after my prayer and meditation. I have been dealing with and managing my emotions for 4 years with this illness. I was diagnosed December of 2010 with one lesion in my brainstem. I began to drag my left leg in November 2012. I lost balance and mobility in July 2013. Even though things seem bleek and I often feel like a prisoner in my body, however I have decided not to be a prisoner of my mind ( my thoughts and emotions). It has taken a 4 months of intense prayer and being still and quiet. I had to learn to hear the voice of God. I focus on what I know is real and I focus on the now. If Im having a bad day I seek comfort and I pray. If Im having a great day I pray and try to lift others up. Ive learned that many people will never really understand what youre going through physically or mentally, not even the doctors. I found this Transverse Myelitis Coalition Facebook page in December 2013 or January 2014 one of those months( I remember it was cold outside) and it had saved my life when I was at my lowest. The information and the support and encouragement I received was a catalyst to healing. Im grateful for Laura Arnone and her constant diligence with providing the group with information on EVERYTHING related to TM, and her positive reception, encouraging messages and willingness to continue pressing forward. Thank you Laura. Keep up the good work and continue fighting the good fight. 💜💋💪
