I’ve been wearing loose tees and sweats over the past 21 months, because real/fitted clothes have hurt too much to wear. And I even got to travel for fun, for the first time since everything started.
I’m moving on up in the world my friends 😎
I’m still having my ups and downs but I am recovering from something that some (terrible, shouldn’t be allowed near the public) doctors told me I would never heal from. A pain management specialist even laughed in my face when I told them I was only going to need pain meds temporarily because I was going to get better, saying “people don’t ‘get better’ from this - adjust your expectations”. I told her she shouldn’t talk to me, or any of her other patients that way (when you have your own mind on your side, you can do incredible things). 21 months in - thanks to myself, Daniel & his unwavering support, some amazing physical therapists, meditation and my studying pain psychology - among many other things - I’ve got a ways to go but I know something that I didn’t know before; I AM GOING TO BE OKAY. It’s a thought that brings so much gratitude. I got this. I know I’m still illusive about what’s going on but I’ve still got to get through it first.
But my overall message is universal; believe in your damn self! Believe that what you want for yourself is possible. Visualize yourself doing the things you want, feeling the way you want to feel. Lean in to the positive and cut out the garbage - even the kind of “garbage” coming from your own internal talk.
We shape our own futures largely by what we hold in mind, so make sure you’re imagining the future you want, and not dwelling in the possibilities that frighten you. Love to you all xKelli
Recovering, healing, mindset
“I got dressed!!! Take my picture!!”
