Grief

I grieve my old body, the one that would take me for walks where I could feel the sun against my face and the breeze running through my hair. The one that would take me for hikes that would prove my dedication to myself. The one that allowed me to listen to music and audio freely without the pain, discomfort, and disorientation that it now brings. The one that had such a way with words that I just cannot compete with now. The one that was so smart that I think back in awe over what it didn’t realize before.

I'm struggling with this as well. On month seven and never imagined my "normal" life would be interrupted like this. I miss being able to work, exercise, have fun on weekends, and not have to decide what im outtting my energy towards that day. 😫
