Six months to the day I was able to once again experience that little jump in my leg when the doctor hits your knee with his hammer. This has really been the only test I've had to monitor the progress of GBS and I feel like I have finally turned the corner. I still have more recovery; I'm not working full-time, I'm still in Physical Therapy and am working on my strength, balance and endurance, but finally that doesn't have to define me.
I'm ready to be defined as the woman with the two great adult children that she loves to spend time with. The artist, drummer, chocolate lover - anything other than the one with that freaky syndrome that nobody had heard of and was secretly glad it didn't happen to them.
So in order to skip forward into the sun, I've decided to stop updating this blog. I've read enough Vampire Porn I may write a book so I can add writer to my list or continue the Community Ed painting classes. I also have a few more drumming classes to take. Whatever I decide, if it fits in a blog and you are interested in more ramblings I'm happy to let you know. Thank you for your comments on the blog and to me personally, they helped this journey dance along that much better!
