Muscular Dystrophy

It's the end of the season of course but these flowers don't know. We decided to hold off on more plants but it's funny how unintentional beauty can show up in a crack in the cement makes us wonder how we can find beauty in almost all things. This is the kind of natural distraction that gives me joy. We should have a nature picture week on this forum would be fun. Anyways just thought I'd share.#MentalHealth #MuscularDystrophy #DegenerativeDiscDisease #Fibromyalgia #RareDisease #etc

Everyone suffers through some hardship in there lives.The hardest part for me# is finding people who share my experience through muscular dystrophy. I don't need validation I just want some more understanding even my friend of forty years insuated I was a drug addict because I take pain medication. I appreciate the Mighty because it's the only place that someone might listen. I can't expect people to understand my rare disease but I don't the negativity of unsupportive friends.#MentalHealth #ChronicPain #RareDisease #MuscularDystrophy #Fibromyalgia #Dystonia

San Pedro drawing the attention of some bees since it's been a really dry summer. This will be the last #MentalHealth #MuscularDystrophy #ChronicPain

The moment I've been waiting for is here my Cactus has bloomed in the night. These little stoic San Pedro plants are a testament to nature's perseverance with barely any water they bloom every seven years I have propogated them to about six plants. Just thought I would share nature is in my toolkit against the pains of muscular dystrophy.#MentalHealth #MuscularDystrophy #RareDisease #ChronicPain #Anxiety #Fibromyalgia #DegenerativeDiscDisease #Disability

Just an update because it's so fascinating when you see the flower structure really taking shape. Just a couple more weeks and it will bloom at night.#MentalHealth #MuscularDystrophy #RareDisease #Fibromyalgia #Dystonia

Thanks in part to my Mighty Community I went ahead and gave my Dr this gift of old Apocathery bottles and he loved it. He even showed me pictures of where he was going to put the display making another shelf for it. Anyways just wanted to thank you guys for your input 🙂🙂💙💙#MentalHealth #MuscularDystrophy #MuscleDysfunction #Fibromyalgia #Depression #Anxiety

We grew so many plants over the years on the patio they spread seeds. In these little cracks you can see the flowers. Also a picture of my San Pedro cactus pre bloom you can see what looks like a spider nest on the side. More to come as they will bloom at night in September.#MentalHealth #MuscularDystrophy #RareDisease #ChronicPain #Depression

Like many people we had a pretty hot summer so I don't have any new plants to share so I thought of making a collage of sunflowers. I hope everyone has a great day 🙂#MentalHealth #MuscularDystrophy #RareDisease #etc
