Empathy cards by Emily McDowell Studios! i saw these on facebook and seriously, these are amazing for all illnesses. Link here: http://info.emilymcdowell.com/empathy-cards-for-serious-illness/

I never thought I would be writing something like this but with sadness and tears coming down my face I experienced a pain I never thought w

Please help even with a small $5.00 or $10.00 #donation to my friend Hadja & her fiancé Joey to go to Belgium to pick up her brother’s body & transport it to Guinea to his final resting place, as well as petition to gain custody of his 14 yr old daughter who has been sent to an orphanage since her father’s untimely death. This is about this vulnerable child’s welfare. Young girls her age are preyed upon in the system. They must get the needed funds to gain custody of her & get a visa for her to come back with them to the U.S. Can you imagine being alone in an orphanage after your father has just passed away with plenty of family, but they are all on different continents and cannot come to save you? I cannot even imagine Hadja as a young mother having to make this decision to go & get this 14 yr old girl. Hadja herself was a young girl when she became a US citizen, coming with her older brother after her father passed away. How 💔 heart wrenching for this family! Please help with any Monies you see fit to give.

How do you move on? You move on when your heart finally understands that there is no turning back.

wordsnquotes

Take a shower, wash off the day. Drink a glass of water. Make the room dark. Lie down and close your eyes. Notice the silence. Notice your heart. Still beating. Still fighting. You made it, after all. You made it, another day. And you can make it one more. You’re doing just fine.

Charlotte Eriksson (via wordsnquotes)

Don't bother with the shower- not enough spoons for that. Do drink the water & record the rest of this with Siri/Alexa/ Google, or whatever recorder you have in your most soothing voice. Tell her/him to play it at bedtime. 🌜🌚🌛☯️namaste!

Beatiful Flowers sent from the management group at my workplace. Came one day before the letter from HR saying FMLA is expiring & your job won't be protected anymore. Already used it up because I have #chronicmigraine too. #sympathyflowers #chronicpain #chronicillness Feeling #bittertruth #everybodyisreplaceable #breastcancersucks #reconstructioninprogress #spoonielife

Chronic illness 101.

This is a simple yet beautiful depiction of thousands of people’s daily lives. Everyone who does not understand the Spoon Theory or chronic illness (physical or mental) needs to see this kind of thing.

Some days I start my day in that half-drained yellow stage. Some days I start my day even lower.

It isn't the same as in the movies.
