Everything keeps moving...

After realizing it wasn't just the flu going on for days, I went in to see the doctor finally to see why I was still dizzy. I was hoping she would simply say something like, "Oh, yes, you have an ear infection. Here. Let me write you a prescription and you should feel better soon."

It seems life is never that simple. I think I already knew that. But this time, it actually made me laugh.

No. Instead she told me it was a condition that was incurable, there was no medication I could take, and that I would basically have to deal with it for the remainder of my lifespan. With the exception of a somewhat relieving ride I can take on an ENT table to try to get the equilibrium back to normal for a time, I have to adjust and learn how to get out of bed slowly in a slightly odd rolling way. Rise from my chairs slowly and get a slow start to walking from a still position. It seems the only thing I have been able to do without too much adjusting is driving.

So, I just smiled and came home. I am still laughing at this. What else is there for me to do? I am not even 30 and I am falling apart ever-so-slowly! I am sure there are others that feel similarly. In fact, a sweet friend of mine deals with far greater physical challenges and goes through each day accomplishing the job of three moms, in my opinion. She has the biggest smile on anyone I know. When I heard the news, I instantly thought of her and her attitude. (You know who you are!)

Next task, after the doctor gets my Thyroid balanced again, is to get beyond this hurdle and get back into exercising. No more jumping jacks, running or crunches for me, but I know there is something I can do, and I need to tell my body that I must do it.

Until that happens, I guess I just get to see the world from a slightly unique perspective... everything moving around me in odd ways!!

Keep Smiling!! Keep Doing!! Keep Living!!
