I myself have three chronic illnesses.The three conditions antagonize eachother and the medications I need to take for all three antagonize eachother as well, so that somedays I feel like a never ending battleground.The attacks I have from each condition are similar and I have to wait until it progresses far enough for me to able to discern which condition it is that I need to treat and how fast.Every hour seems like a new adventure.Well, both my eyes hemorhaged and I spent the past month and a half blind until I could have corrective surgery, which I have had and I have half of my vision back, but maintaining the level of care I need to give myself was downright nearly impossible.I am glad to be better.What is the most difficult or life changing illness or injury you have endured,how did you deal with it?I am lucky to have had caring people in my life to help me out.

Hi pendragon, its amazing how you with all your physical shortcomings can actually motivate normal ppl like us. i have all my physical powers intact but see i am living a life of futility. i am really inspired by the your life. at the end, i feel, quality matters more than quantity. thanx for elevating me.
