l normally keep things to myself

[Lissau]

l normally keep things to myself and just deal with it but at the moment l think l need some MSQC hugs or just understanding.......... l know there are people worse off than me but this past 2 years (its 2 years this weekend) has been a long haul and there is still more to come. l try hard not to become the chronic person who is always having a pity party ..but at the moment l think l've hit the wall......its 2 yrs of treatment and a complete diet change and the loss of 40 kilos or 90lbs. So l can get a total knee replacement done hopefully this year .......Alot has changed for the better but there is so much more to come....l think just need to let out a big sigh!!!... Thanks for reading this

Pity parties are sometimes necessary to get over humps. Sounds like you have been doing awesome in preparing yourself for some difficult times to come. My hugs are flying your way. Keep on doing what your doing. You are getting healthier, so good for you!!!!!

Lots of support here.

Congratulations for having the strength to make those life changes. I know from personal experience, that it isn't easy. You should be proud of yourself. I hope the knee surgery goes well. My sister had both knees done at the same time last year. She was in a lot of pain & had to do a lot of physical therapy but she says it was all worth it.
She can walk, run & do all the things she wants to do now,,
((Hugs))

Hugs Lisa (((((Lisa))))). It is hard to deal with pain day in and day out, and not let it get you down. You are entitled to a little pity party every now and then.

Hi Lissau, I'm so excited about your weight loss. Just losing all that weight must make you feel so much better. Hang in there. You mentioned having the surgery this year. What will determine when it can be scheduled? I hope it can happen for you soon. My mother-in-law just had both knees replaced and she's doing quite well. I'm sure you'll do even better since you are younger. She is in her early 80's. Lots of hugs coming your way.

Lots of hugs and caring coming your way!

You have worked so hard and are doing so well!
Be proud of what you have accomplished so far and then Think of how proud and so much better you will feel when all the hardships are behind you!


Hugs
