Inhaltsangabe

In 2001, I was confronted with the most frightening challenge of my life, the diagnosis of a disease called scleroderma. I gradually learnt that this was no ordinary condition, as both my immune and vascular systems are compromised. The body is overproducing collagen throughout the body's cells, tissues, organs, and systems, causing scarring or fibrosis. I felt strongly compelled to stay positive and explored many areas of help by seeking medical, holistic, and spiritual ways of healing. My book reveals the challenging and yet empowering journey I am living. Through a natural desire to express myself, I began writing my thoughts down daily and led to much insight and inspiration. My journal of poems, affirmations, and dedications brings to light a culmination of years of fear, bravery, pain, faith, desperation, and enlightenment. I sincerely hope this reaches the many thousands of people who are struggling just like me, dealing with their day-to-day tribulations of managing an autoimmune disease. I endeavour to deliver comfort and recognition by openly sharing my story and I wish with all my heart and soul that it helps people in some reassuring way or hopefully in a most miraculous way. This is my dream.

CHAPTER 1

Survival


Quote: Anne Lamott

"I do not understand the mystery of grace-Onlythat it meets us where we areBut does not leave us where it found us.


    Being Cared For

    TO be strong
    Is to be vulnerable
    Do not conceal
    The weaknesses of life, altercation
    On Love, Health, Fear or,
    Indecision.
    Make a stand, a soulful petition
    Relinquish all holds
    On the truth and be frank
    Let it be
    Let it be known
    I am humbled and meek
    In this Need for Care.
    Being Cared For
    Enables me to come out of
    The darkness of denial
    Ending this self-defensive spiral.


    Steering Your Own Way

    Taking responsibility for one's life
    In many forms, is essential
    Wake up and take the reigns
    Your interest and proactive intentions
    Opens so many doors in your Name
    Staying dormant in wonder
    Does not fuel the fire of our soul
    It needs our breath and motion
    To rise high and make us whole.

    We cannot account for others choices
    They alone, can lead their own destiny
    Staying vigilant on steering your own way
    Will bring you closer to the right path
    To Freedom and Harmony.


    Self-Empowerment

    My obsession to lessen
    The growing pain of denial,
    Has destructive effects on me.
    I can't stop when my body needs to
    I can't breathe when my body needs to
    I can't cry when my body needs to
    My search for SELF-EMPOWERMENT is the KEY.

    Find the victorious answer from inside
    What has transpired may seem out of your control
    But what we create
    Can also be in our Power to change,
    It can be natural.


    Adapt To Thrive

    The veil of restrictions are lifted
    I can now start, without
    Freezing in fear to continue
    I am NOW evolving
    With the lessons I am gifted.

    I accept new challenges will arise
    Till then, I bask in my ecstasy
    Ground myself and live
    The world is a changing place
    So we too must adapt to thrive.

    Just when our mind is made up
    Something happens to help us
    See a new point of view
    I am ever so humbled
    When confronted with solutions
    I never knew.


    Allergy To Msg

    For many unknowing years
    I questioned my palate and tastebuds
    Often been drawn to numerous
    Unhealthy yet delicious flavours.

    MY savouring was short lived
    As not long after the invigorating feast
    A drum of dislike was present
    In my whole being.

    I learnt the lesson soon, one day
    What is taken in, Must be natural
    The societies lure of addictions
    Became an instrument, I wish
    To no longer play.


    Back To Basics

    The body responds
    To neglect
    Like an outcast
    Refused shelter
    After a long, hard journey.
    Immediate recognition
    Is beseeched
    Create an Oasis
    With the simplest of tasks
    Tend to the basics.
    Water
    Nutritious food
    Rest
    And tolerance
    Your body needs
    Attention, without deference.


    The Power Within Us All

    A creator is within us
    We may not see
    This part of us
    For indeed
    Knowing this
    Will set us free.


    Letting Go

    Change is frightening
    So is sheer...
