    I have wondered the same thing. But it has been over 1 year for me and despite many days of thinking I would not get through it, I have. I don’t know what surprises wait for me tomorrow but I hope they are good ones! I have days that aren’t so good mentally or physically. I think we should be allowed to have those days. What we have stinks. I try not to let those days stretch on for too many in a row but with mixed success. I try hard to remember that I have today. When I was first given my diagnosis, they told me is was very possible I would not see last Christmas. I hope Dr. Kauh has something positive for you.

    Thanks for the encouragement. I work 40 plus a week although it is very difficult now. I feel I can’t slow down for fear of losing my job which of course would mean losing health insurance. I would have a hard time getting another job becuase I could never pass the preemployement physical. It is sad to mean that I have to calculate these things into my decisions but that is reality. Many people make a lot of hard decisions based on insurance (or lack of) and work issues. I try to not be resentful towards my employer because it is not their fault or issue but sometimes I could really use a break but I know better than to ask. Do any of you face similar work issues?
