For Crying Out Loud!: A Look on the Lighter SideIt is my attempt to reach and help those of you who are suffering from an illness, and for those who love them Being ill, myself, it has been great therapy for me, as well as my loved ones. My book will strike you in a new way, for I deal a lot with the humor in our situations, as I feel that to really be able to cope we must learn to step back and chuckle once in a while. It is a book that deals with many of my own life situations, frustrations, and challenges. In a way, it is a journey through the eyes of the ill as self love and acceptance is found. The journey that is held on these pages holds encouragement, enlightenment, not only emotionally but spiritually, as well, as sometimes the faith in a higher power can be questioned and even abandoned when chronic pain is a day to day livelihood. By reading on, you have already chosen to help yourself and find your inner strength. Congratulations! I feel that it is a benefit to learn coping skills...a necessity, actually. I want you to come with me on a journey that will allow you to see the humor in our illnesses. What I am about to write is a look on the lighter side, not to diminish what we go through every day but to give you a different way of looking at yourself. Trust me...since, I myself have taken this road it has become infinitely easier to cope on a day to day basis. Share with me, a little of the laughter that our sickness has given to us. Come with me... |
