First- my story is posted to the mighty! If you or anyone you know has had struggles with chronic illness, I think it would make a good read.
Second- I’m getting my hair dyed today! You’ll never guess what color it is! (Spoiler alert: I’m going back to pink!) I’m currently sitting with a bunch of tinfoils on my head waiting for the bleach to process.

I share this because it’s a good reminder, even to myself, that there can be silver linings to bad situations, even if it can be hard to find. My eye surgery isn’t happening tomorrow, and that now has graduation and prom plans dangling in the air. I’m choosing not to dwell on it, because I have no control over the situation. All I can do is focus on those silver linings, and get through as best I can.
