So I find great comfort in this community, THANK YOU ALL!!!
I was wondering if others who have had an Annie rupture, get the same strange looks from others when you have trouble processing information or just bad days of pain? I go through this with friends and even family and it always puzzles me that although I look the same, the fact of the matter is I am NOT!!! I do not function the same way as I used to. I have good days and bad days...am I allowed? I used to fight with the title, "Permanently Disabled!" I wanted to prove them wrong, but the truth is I can not...I have major deficits now, I have even found myself pushing too hard to prove I can still do things like I used to. I wont even mention the loss of normal sleep. All that usually results in 2-3 days of pain and recovery just to get back to the current Penny. How do I get others to understand what it is like for me now, even though my hair has grown back, and my scar has healed...
Your thoughts, comments, or complaints are welcome!
