Dear Bonnie, Hi, I'm Sally. I think that all of us here have felt like the
pain of adhesions has taken over our lives. We can't take away the Pain
(except through pain meds), but we can try to regain a sense of ourselves as
worthwhile people who deserve better but are going to have to live with pain
whether we like it or not. We can fight it, or we can accept our bodies and
love them and do what we can to be happy and productive. I'm all for the right
pain medication. It's hard to live knowing you have limitations, for example,
I can no longer go grocery shopping for the Inn, It's way too hard for me, but
I can entertain the guests at breakfast with stories and good old fashioned
hospitality. Just do the best you can, don't beat up on yourself for something
beyond your control, and start studying the web page for adhesions to gain as
much knowledge as you can. Knowledge is power. http://www.adhesions.org Look for
e-mails from Helen Dynda and Beverly from the past and read about our shared
disease. Love and good luck, Sally
