Sorry I never kept to my every other day promise but I have been so busy and also lost ideas for this blog but the other day I saw this amazing cf blog http://cystikone.wordpress.com/category/adventure/ and he did a post on what CF really was to him and I really liked some of the things he said so I decided I would do my own version of that.
Credit to him.
What's CF really is...
CF is not wanting to plan your future because you don't know how long it will last,
It's waking up each day to hundreds of pills,
It's nebs and physio,
It's the feeling of giving up everyday because nothing helps anyway,
It's crying yourself to sleep because those you love are suffering from this fricking illness and you can even be there for them,
It's getting chest infections all the time,
It's worrying that going to that sleepover or swimming in that pool might make you ill,
It's getting grief from class mates because 'your never in school' so must be bunking,
It's taking pills every time you eat,
And it's also pain. Not being able to breath as well as you should.
The other blog also wrote the positives of what CF was to him so here's what they are for me...
CF is being stronger because you have no other choice,
It's having a second family in hospital because you are there so often,
It's making amazing friends who can relate to what you are going through,
It's taking each day as it comes,
It's being strong for your family,
And it's being able to eat fricking tonnes of food ;)
I would like to credit this blog again, I completely took the idea and in no way will I take the credit. I just wanted to add its importance to my blog, so if I took this idea from your blog then I'm sorry but your idea was fab.
Life...
So usual life updates part.
Well I've been on holiday and now I'm in Sussex.
I've had my 16th birthday and now a lot of stuff is changing. For starts I'm going from DLA to PIP which is a huge change and I'm also talking more about transition which is scary.
My cousin bought me 5sos tickets so I will be able to cross something off my bucket list and I'm so exited! She also made me the best mixtape which I will for sure be listening to on repeat when I'm ill or down to make me feel better.
Here are some pictures from my birthday...
That's it for today lovelies.
