LetItOut

I’m mid flare up and today has been just about bearable. Although I do feel as though acid has been injected up my urethra, I’ve done quite well and managed to make it through the whole work day. What isn’t bearable are the other stupid #ChronicIllness domino effect pains. I have three ulcers on my tongue. The skin around my nails is peeling and sore. I have scabs all over my scalp which are sore and bleed with the slightest brush through my hair. I constantly feel car sick even though I’m not in a car. I could probably deal with these things without the pain, but in combination my ulcers and nails are making my cry. #LetItOut

When I'm feeling powerless, I watch The Hunger Games Quadrilogy. #fightback
When I need coziness & comfort, I watch Harry Potter movies #Believe #lovewins
When I need to laugh, I watch Uncle Buck, The 'Burbs, The Birdcage and Super Troopers etc. #buckmelanoma
When I need to cry, I watch The Notebook or Philadelphia or Steel Magnolias #LetItOut
When I need to feel community, I watch Pride

#ItsOKMan to let it out when you are sad. I see my husband try to stop the tears & it breaks my heart. He was called a "Sissy" or to "Stop Crying" growing up.
