D-Nile, ain't just a river in Egypt...



All joking aside, at times being in 'denial' slightly can be helpful with handling medical issues.
Go with me here…
Too much ice cream will make you fat, but a little will make you happy, right? Simplicity, at its finest.
This is my theory, stay with me please while I try and make my point, okay?
And so in order for that statement above to have weight one must believe that harping on one’s ills is detrimental to their health as well?
I’m not saying that you shouldn’t go and take care of your health and when diagnosed do all that you can to treat it with any and all methods and means available that are proven and not harmful.
What I am trying to convey here is that when we constantly talk about or receive emails or discuss daily in groups that aim to ‘help’ we could be considered obsessive with our medical issues, which, in my unbiased un-medical degreed opinion can be detrimental to that person, meaning you; just a thought.
And this action does only work with chronic disorders, not life and death medical conditions where every minute counts!
Live your lives friends and if possible do what I did once when I had hand surgery all those years ago, for my left hand with basilar joint arthritis… when asked I told everyone that it was an old football injury; considering I am a woman and they are still weighing the prospect, even twelve years later than when I said that, i.e. about allowing women in high school, college and the NFL to play, I truly thought it was hilarious!

Canes can be a choice of weaponry is this crazy world, scooters/motorized chairs could be, well let’s just say, better modes of transportation with the topper, have you seen those gas prices? Bud dump bum…
Wheelchairs can be; I took to making too many shorty marks on doorways so they took away my driver’s license even when I tried to explain our latest grandchild is really short and wouldn’t stand still for the markings? Bud dump bum…
AGAIN!

Listen, your own probably would be more yours and that’s what all this should be, personal.
But when I tried a few times to unsubscribe from once again another group, but email one, I realized that for some it is just fine to constantly be bombarded with additional information and to be a buddy to someone 'like you'… In reality there is NO ONE just like you or me or anyone else… and to think that our experience would be beneficial to tell when in reality all people want is to be heard that is their story is presumptuous of us all. Oops that is what this blog was based on, ha!
Sure learning what’s new and inventive and has legs to really make a dent in anything in life is wonderful, but do any of these people know or realize that when that happens organizations send it out in newsletters, the FDA and JAMA and like groups become national news?
Yep, that has been my recent nearly sixty-three year experience on this planet, just saying folks…
Sure it took me a while to jump on this sometime, ‘denial wagon’ that many emotionally healthy people have been pushing for, for years, but I would have none of it…
But lately my ills, which are too many that have been all consuming and who, really needs strangers telling you too all about what you live with daily, really?

Take my words with a grain of salt or to heart or however you may take any ‘bitter pill to swallow’, for you literalists, it’s an expression… in my case a truism that is not harping  so much on what’s wrong with me, but what is right with me, got it? You can do that to yourself, ask that question, what’s so great about you?

I hope that this doesn’t sound as if I went around in circles, but I didn’t mean to and from now on I will try to be more in ‘denial’ only in the sense of amplifying the positive and playing down the negative, okay?

Expressing one’s self sometimes is not as easy as one may think, but I try, boy do I ever!

On that note of whatever you take away from that, allow me to be the very first to wish all of you a very happy good night and ask you to kindly count all your blessings and share all your overages with you know who and we will too!

And next time please be here or be square, ya hear!?
