Iโm so happy I could die ๐
No but really, Iโm incredibly happy and impressed with the way my body has been gaining strength after a super intense spinal fusion surgery. Yes, Iโm still sore from surgery but itโs absolutely nothing compared to what I was already dealing with. You donโt realize how much of your social energy and even how much your personality is dulled bc of chronic pain. I was reminding myself constantly to stop tensing my muscles. Iโd rot in bed (which is the best sometimes lol) but having to do that and cancel plans with your friends only bc youโre in so much pain was really hard to deal with. Thatโs when I took up using procreate and it has been an incredible outlet for me and still is of course. Iโm just really thankful that I found my doctor when I did because my spinal health was declining rapidly right before surgery. Iโm still in recovery but oh my GAHD.. I feel like Iโve been holding in all of the sunโs energy and Iโm bursting out with warms fuzzy loving energy! I feel so much more sociable and engaged. I donโt have Bertolottis Syndrome climbing my back anymore and itโs so freeing! I always want to be transparent and vulnerable with you. And in doing so, I hope to give you the strength to advocate for yourself and as corny as it sounds, live your life out loud. Youโre only given this life once and this body. Take care of it and itโll take care of YOU! Cornball session over.. be ready to see me more here very soon! ๐ค๐ค๐ค
