Long Day

11/13/2012

Comments

 
Unknown to me, I left the house this morning without taking my medication.  When I got to they gym, my friend asked me why my walk was so different.  She thought it seemed a little off and wanted to make sure everything was okay.  I explained that I haven't been getting enough sleep and that things have been a little stressful.  I didn't realize until our 30 minute walk on the treadmill was over that I had forgotten to take my life line.  We cut our workout short and I went home and took the little pill that allows me to live my life to its fullest potential. 

My walk did get better as the day went on, but I still wasn't quite right.  At girl scouts I spilled punch all over the kitchen floor and later this evening I spilled a glass of red wine on my living room carpet.  Without taking my medication correctly and a lack of sleep, my hands have difficulty holding items.  I was just glad that I could run and get a towel to clean up both messes I had made! 

Tomorrow is a new day and I look forward to spending it with my mom shopping.  Let's just hope I don't crash John's stroller into a big display.  Now that would be a mess!! 

Have a good evening and thanks so much for your support!

    After living the first 33 years of my life thinking I had Spastic Diplegia, a form of Cerebal Palsey, I was correctly diagnosed with Dopa Responsive Dystonia (DRD). I am on new medication and doing things that I never imagined possible. This has changed the lives of my husband and two daughters. I truly believe that I am living a miracle each and every day. Life can't get any better than this!
