The ongoing stages of grief with chronic illness… the grief of losing the hobbies, passions and life you had the grief of losing your health, your freedom, your ability to choose the grief of losing your independence, your job, your ability to work or study or earn a living the grief of losing the ability to plan your future 🌪 the grief of never knowing what it’s like to go on unplanned adventures, to be spontaneous 💭 the grief of your body’s constant limitations the grief of losing the small progress you made through the inevitable roller-coaster of recovery the grief of never having a break from your illness 🌙 the grief of carrying all the years you’ve been sick on your shoulders Here with you, through it all, as always, E 🦋 xx

I hope you’re proud of all the times you did what was right for you. I hope you’re proud of all the times you stopped instead of pushing through. I hope you’re proud of all the times you put yourself first. I hope you’re proud of all the times you recognised your limits. I hope you’re proud of all the times you honoured your limits. I hope you’re proud of all the times you went at your own pace. I hope you’re proud of all the times you realised your best is, and always will be, enough. ~ Page 220 of my book, ‘Everything is Always Changing.’ Available via my shop and Amazon worldwide 📚🌍💛 xx
