Each Day Already is a Challenge

A Texas Sunrise

Sunrise on Surfside Beach, Texas

A friend, William Taylor, took this picture. He visits Surfside Beach with his dogs almost every morning, watching the sun rise while the dogs prance about at the water's edge.

This is only about ten miles from where I lived in Lake Jackson, Texas. Sadly, I only visited this beach about four times in the six years I lived nearby.

Each day is a challenge. A challenge to get by without thinking about the fibromyalgia pains. A challenge to stay awake when chronic fatigure wants to take over. And a challenge to navigate through fibro fog.

I haven't been writing as much as in the past. For years, I wrote at least 500 words a day. Now, I'm lucky if I write 500 words in month. Sigh.

For more information about what my day (or life) is all about with fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, chronic pains, IBS, depression and everything else thrown in, check this out:

My pain and welcome to it.

In response to "Another breast cancer update..breast cancer warriors rock!!!"

Dang, my friend. When it rains, it pours. I believe that epitomizes your struggles.

Undergoing my own struggles with kidney cancer--outlined in my Blog--I both empathize and sympathize with your situation. I admit I've been extremely fortunate with the surgery and treatments I'm receiving. I also believe prayers work, something I'm not sure I believed until my wife got involved.

I'm praying for you. And I hope your cancer meds continue their success.

Thank you for sharing your story. It helps the rest of us.

We will wait another 6 months, unless the lump grows or something else happens.

In response to "I had to laugh "

Once you see it, I am sure it is hard to "unsee" it. LOL. I looked up the title but did not see it listed online. You don't see many bloopers like that around here, but I am sure they are out there.

In response to "Have we forgotten?"

I researched the falling man and looked at victim and family stories. I am sure there were some kind of city remembrance events. I did my own, allowing myself to watch the terrifying videos, and reports, and documentaries the entire day to remember. There already is a generation who don't remember anything unless they learned something in school or from their own family about the attacks of 9/11.

CBS Investigates Social Security Disability Problems

If you missed tonight's CBS Nightly News, you can catch part two tomorrow - January 15.

CBS Investigates Social Security Disabilty Problems

For five years, Linda Fullerton, president and co-founder of the MSN group, Social Security Disability Coalition, has been trying to get coverage about the problems everyone deals with when applying for Social Security Disability. Finally, a major news media was willing to investigate. CBS will have a two night investigative report on Monday and Tuesday, January 14 and 15 on the evening news that runs 6:30-7 PM EST.

Linda Fullerton, whose brain surgery was 11 years ago, will be interviewed on the Monday segment.

**************

If you have applied for Social Security Disabilty and have not been approved, you really should be a member of this MSN group. http://groups.msn.com/SocialSecurityDisabilityCoalition Social Security Disability Coalition offers free information and support with a focus on SSD reform.

Whether you have applied, receive benefits, or are just concerned about this, be sure to sign the Social Security Disability Reform Petition and read the horror stories from all over the nation. http://www.petitiononline.com/SSDC/petition.html
