Member-only story
i’m back, almost whole again
i’ve really, really updated this!
in december i wrote geez, favorite writers. so, so sorry!
wow, was I wrong back then. I didn’t know how bad i was.
i never thought i would not be okay and well
for another three months. that’s the way my
body behaved. by march, finally, I was fine.
then came something called coronavirus.
so i was put on home lockdown. it was
nyc. the epicenter of what eventually
turned out to be covid-19. we were
surrounded by apocalyptic horror.
most of you know the rest. i’m
still here. but writing from
home. been in lockdown
for ten months. that’s
another story. but
i want to thank
you all again,
so much for
the support, your
wonderful comments,
and frankly… for just
being there. it’s so lovely
to have a Medium family.
all these past months have been
a crazy ride. wild dreams. insane
imagery. at times i felt certain i was
losing my mind. being dependent on
doctors to have the right answers was all
too scary as hell! finding the best, the smartest
kindest, those who are wise and calm and truly
confident is a daunting task while your body screams
silently for help. but eventually out of the medical chaos
came a brilliant team who actually saw me, the whole person;
saw the pain; saw the only mission was, with laser-like precision,
to thoroughly understand the disease, called sjrogren’s…
