I had a rather pain filled, nothing day. One of those days that both drags on and is over in a flash; if that makes any sense…not quite sure if it does. I feel like I didn’t get anything done. Shoot! I even forgot to phone my mom back!! I’m sorry, but I seem to have mush for a brain. I get so frustrated with myself on days like this. When the pain is bad, everything else starts to fall away. Then, I only get the bare my minimum done: my kids get to and back from school, they somehow get food and I am there for any kind of emergency…but it feels like most of me is somewhere else. Inside my head trying not to make it obvious how bad it is. Remembering to smile and, I don’t know, just be there. I could say more, but I’m at the breaking point right now. The place where I can no longer pretend I’m okay. So, I’m going to bed. Fingers crossed for a better night and day tomorrow.
To help with research and treatment for Trigeminal Neuralgia please go to http://www.tnnme.com (Trigeminal Neuralgia and Me) to sign a petition to have the World Health Organization (WHO) add Trigeminal Neuralgia (TN) to their “Health Topic List”!
Hopefully one day I’ll get it right, or at least have fun, while about it I write!!
Being there for your kids in that way is more than just the bare minimum! I could never take care of a kid while suffering from TN pain. I admire you for remembering to smile for them!
