My Journey with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome

"On the girl's brown legs there were many small white scars. I was thinking, do those scars cover the whole of you, like the stars and the moons on your dress? I thought that would be pretty too, and I ask you right here please to agree with me that a scar is never ugly. That is what the scar makers want us to think. But you and I, we must make an agreement to defy them. We must see all scars as beauty. Okay? This will be our secret. Because take it from me, a scar does not form on the dying. A scar means, I survived."

Same Old, Same Old

Unfortunately, I'm pretty much doing the same as I was last week. My mom moved my bed into the family room so that I can watch TV and be with everyone more. I'm still having significant pain, and it gets worse the more I move so I pretty much stay in bed all the time. I'm not ready to start decreasing my pain medicine yet, well see how I do the rest of the week. Apparently, I move my leg and jump in my sleep, so I often wake up in more pain.

The plan was to try to go back to school sometime next week, hopefully I start to turn the corner this week and can start going back to school next week.
