I have changed some things since my last post. I have been constantly reminding myself that thought I feel pain, I mustn’t suffer. I can’t help but feel pain – it is in my genes. But I can choose to suffer or not. I choose life. I choose happiness.
I’ve also been doing back and neck exercises, despite the pain, to prevent stiffness which makes the pain worse.
It is good to have something to look forward to. We’ve had some days out and I’ve gone to each one that we planned. Previously I might have stayed at home on some occasions because of the pain.
Mindset does make a big difference. If some people have learnt not to feel pain we can do it too. I have made a start on this journey.
