More than sad......joy

     In life though these bumps in the road may fall in our way we must trust God. This blog is NOT going to be a complete downer all the time. So let me tell you some good things, dear reader, after all, what is life without one small shred of good?
     So, I will tell you that I am happy with my life. I look for the good things and try to stay positive despite the pain and I am succeeding. If you share this struggle and try to live a normal life without any one knowing, come out of your shell. You are not alone.




*     This weekend I am going to Arkansas so you wont hear from me for lack of WiFi. However I will have a great time and I hope this weekend YOU will too. Have a nice weekend and see you soon.

Lets talk about it.

     We all remember when we fell and scraped our knee when we were little. You know what? We cried because it hurt. After awhile of falling and scraping we learned about some of the cracks in the pavement we had to avoid.
     This can be an analogy for pain syndromes. After all their are triggers that we see before it truly begins. In this way these"cracks" are less prominent over time and we learn to avoid them. However new ones come and we are still tiptoeing around feeling like at any moment we could fall harder, and we do. It is a constant battle of were am I standing today or right now.
     What I want you to learn from this is that we all fall, but how many times can you get back up again is up to you.

Be aware.

     Hey, guys, my name is Jessica, I'm sixteen, and I have a pain syndrome. I don't like to talk about it much but I've decided to tell as many people as I can about this problem that many people have.
     There are different pain syndromes such as R.S.D.,C.R.P.S., and more. These are real things. People all around the world have these.
     A pain syndrome, to be exact is when the nerves of the body are telling the brain "there's pain here" when there isn't. Sometimes it can take months before people are diagnosed and it is a hard thing to go through for everyone involved.
     Even though there is no  "cure" people often go into remission which means they don't hurt any more. Occasionally this can last for the rest of our lives but more often than not it only last a few months or less.
     Please be aware and sympathize with us. Thank you for reading.
