I am sick of being sick!!!
So many people already know my ridiculous medical history. Many people I know say I should be wrapped in bubble wrap since I am such a walking basket case. I take most of it in stride, but it gets to a point where I want to have one really healthy day. Well I guess I should give a slight background for those who do not know the fun and exciting history of me. My main issue is this thing I have called Hydrocephalus. I was diagnosed at age 14 with a benign brain tumor that caused the condition. I went into the hospital where a shunt was implanted and then for about 15 years I was fine. Unfortunately, I have to always keep in mind that I have a condition that can go haywire at any moment. Yeah, well that happened in 2007 and there I was back in surgery to get my head fixed. Then again in 2008, but this time it was to see if I even needed to have all this fun stuff in my head. In between all of this fun and excitement I was diagnosed with Lyme Disease and then Fifth's disease. Seriously, do I ever get a break? Now I am back to wondering about my flippin' head. All I really want is to wake up one morning and feel wonderful. I don't ever see that happening. It is so frustrating and I feel like it is affecting my ability to be a productive person a lot of the time. I am keeping my fingers crossed that next year will be a surgery free year. My hair has finally grown back again and I just don't feel like rocking the bald look for another period of time.
