#rheumaticfever

I wasn't really sure if I wanted to post anything about today, but here goes anyway. Today April 26 is my birthday and I am very grateful for another year no matter how difficult it's been. I will continue to ask for help until I do not need it anymore if I receive any at all. But the the main focus I want to speak about is to the people out there reading this. I don't know if people can truly understand what chronic illness means and the problems it presents over a lifetime, as far as the pain and struggle Etc and how it is compounded by being destitute or poor, also unfortunately how illness tends to attract the wrong people and the suffering kind that gets taken advantage of in many ways. Like I said it's not something I can easily put into words, but what I want to say is please don't look down on individuals because you never know what they're truly going through. Over my time asking for help I've been insulted I've been laughed at I've been mocked and ridiculed. But I do understand that people don't understand and I do my best to ignore the insults, I know that many people that do this type of thing don't understand how close they are to a tragedy a couple or a few bad breaks is all it takes, but many of these confident and condescending people feel that they're Invincible for some reason and maybe they are in some ways. But again many people don't understand that for a lot of people out there chronic illness especially when it starts at the very young age and compounds the older you get it causes a set of problems that feels like a curse in many ways. Chronic illness is something that does not always present itself outwardly, what I mean to say is you can't tell of the suffering of someone by just looking at them it is not always apparent, I would ask people to have more understanding because you truly never know what somebody is going through whether it's the woman standing in line to buy her groceries or the guy sitting in his car stuck in traffic, you truly don't know of the suffering they may be going through especially if they are doing it silently and trying to hide it from the world. Be grateful for your health and your good life if you have it and please sympathize and understand that others may not have it so good. And again the assumption that someone doesn't care about themselves enough to do more is nothing but a fallacy, for many it takes a tremendous amount of strength just to survive on a daily basis and being insulted or condescended by others does not make matters any better please be kind to everyone acquaintances friends and strangers alike. As for myself I'm doing the best that I can it is taken a very long time to get into the depot that I'm in I look upward and I see the light but it is too far to reach out, I still remain hopeful and I'm not sure what it will take short of a miracle to give me something that closely resembles a normal life. If you would like to help my paypal is [email protected] I am grateful nonetheless for making it another year and I hope in my struggle that I learn to cope better and I remain confident that something good will come of my suffering, I may not understand it every day but I still know I have the chance to live a better life somehow. Take care of yourselves and be kind to others.
