I have amazing family and friends. I knew this before my surgery, but man, has it been reinforced again and again the past few weeks. I am staying with my family while I recover and they are doing an amazing job caring for me and handling all the practicalities of rides, food, and laundry (as…
Life is busy. That may be the biggest understatement of the year for you, just as it is for me. My friend recently told that I was effectively leading three lives, which she labeled as: full-time student, full-time therapist, and everything else (church, friends, sleep, downtime).
