The Fight

Posted on November 16, 2009 at 10:38 AM

Today I decided to write about the not so good, about the hard time I had accepting this and the personal struggle, the anger, shouting whenever I could talk, crying, losing myself and just being angry.


According to my family for over a year after I started living with this we all thought it was a passing thing, we believed I was gonna wake up one day like any normal person. Okay let me tell you how I wake up. As you know I faint all the time and usually get thrown to the ground when the shaking start, so picture this, I'd be fast asleep and start shaking in my sleep till I fall of the bed and land on the sponge they keep next to the bed, I'd keep shaking on the ground banging my head till maybe I'm even off that sponge or against a wall till I stop breathing and they start helping me till I resume breathing. I open my eyes and what do you know, it's morning and I'm already all banged and bruised.


So naturally we believed it was gonna go away one day because all my test results show and have always shown an all clear. Months went on and month after month the belief started fading and I started getting angry. I didn't wanna be touched or comforted, I was angry without ever saying  I'm angry, my faith was fading and I said to my mother "If I had done some big sin, hasn't God punished me enough?" We cried and cried till I fell asleep for a few minutes.


This anger went on for a long time, the feeling of being deserted and at some point I started doubting God's existence...................... But my family's love and patience finally made me calm down, and after a lot of soul searching I finally realized that "hey idiot you're still alive for a reason, stop whining and live your life" and that was the best decision I could have ever made because I'm not ridiculously happy but I am happy. Another thing is do you remember my beautiful stranger poem? Well he came into my life and though it took a long time but I can safely say I credit him for a lot of my progress, he gave me so much but that''s a post for another day.

Usually when I feel deserted it is because I have turned away. I'm glad you realized that you are alive for a reason. Blessing the rest of us with your words is only part of it. I'm thankful for you.

As I am for you, your Lineage Aflame poem was a beautiful reminder.

Well, you live in a world that you must face every day and you must make choices. They are only choices you have the RIGHT to make, in my book. My mom and brother-in-law..both..had brain tumors. They were benign, but were causing many problems. If my mom's had not been detected, she would have no use off her left side! They got it just in time! I hope they gave you ALL the tests you need!

Sorry to hear about your mom and brother-in-law, thank God they were diagnosed in time and got the proper help, I can't imagine how it would've felt to be told later that her left side could have been saved.
I can only pray that they gave me all the tests, but I've taken so many and I'm still taking them and will be seeing a neurologist soon so I can see for myself.
Curiosity might just save this cat, lol...!!!
