RSD/CRPS 30 Days of Awareness and wego Health Blogger challenges, Day 7

A Day in My Life Photo Challenge for 30 Days of RSD/CRPS Awareness - Day 07 - A picture of who you look to as inspiration to keep fighting this disease even when you want to give up.

OK. After giving the last two days my all, I’m cheating again, here. I have 2 multi-answers for this, and I’m not going to post a picture!

1.  My family; my husband and young adult daughter and son. Because they want me here and they give up so much and do so much to make it possible that I would be a rat and a half to give up. And I already posted a beautiful pic of them for Day 2.
2. My RSD/CRPS family. First and foremost, my besties, my “coven”, my cohorts in working towards RSD/CRPS Art Spirit, and all of the other incredible, amazing women and men who are fighting to stay here and stay strong despite being burdened with the Beast. You all fill me with awe and admiration at times; you make me want to inspire you in return. We hold each other up in the bad times, and celebrate the good times when they come… moment by moment. I wanted badly to post a “quilt” of fb pics, but didn’t have time to ask permission and didn’t feel it would be right not to… so, no pic. Ahhhh well, we already know I have a hard time not breakin’ the rules sometimes…. Sorry!

Wego Health Blogger Challenge - Day 7
Mary Poppins Carpet Bag Write about what’s in your bag/purse/backpack every day – and why! All I can s say here is I don’t pack light anymore. I carry medications (multiple, these days), homeopathics, herbal tinctures, topical magnesium, vit C and several other supplements, timers, medication log pen, peak flow meter, oxygen, multiple pairs of glasses, multiple layers of clothing (all large and loose) including gloves and/or wristlets, water, organic rice cakes or crackers, activated carbon filter mask, medical documentation, acupressure points charts, a good book, pictures of my family…. There is often much more, but that’s the basics! And my yes, I would love for Mary Poppins carpet bag!
