Hello everyone! I have been feeling
rather glum as of lately, partly because I struggle with mental
illness and the other reasoning being my Klippel. I do not feel ready
to undergo a surgery of the debulking magnitude in January, but I
know it is more than likely a great leap forward for me as opposed to
a step back... whenever I feel pessimistic about the surgery, I
remember that the benefits may greatly outweigh any risks.
One of the issues I have been dealing
with lately is utter fatigue – my body is so tired, constantly,
which can be attributed to numerous circumstantial things I have
happening within my life. A great deal of my friends no longer live
in the area, and that in itself can leave my feeling rather lonesome
– but I am doing my best to get on despite the constant loneliness
in which I often feel.
As far as dating, I am not doing much
of that right now as my primary focus needs to be on my own
well-being prior to surgery. That may sound rather selfish, but it is
the reality of my life at this point in time. Still, I must
acknowledge that I do have a multitude of great friends in my life –
many of whom I have met through the Vascular Anomalies community –
who help to keep my spirits up. I only wish they lived closer!
If you are on Facebook and would like
to join my public FB page (Arianna Faro- A Limp At A Time -an
extension of this blog) please feel free to do so and find the page by clicking HERE. Much like this blog, I talk about issues such as Klippel,
Chronic Illness in general, and mental illness. It also gives a tiny
glimpse into my personal life – as well as a large glimpse into my
life with Klippel.
Hope you all are well!
Ari
