i had a yr and 1/2 of gi issues, including 2 major surgeries. started to get back on my feet, and lower back issues started up. treatments didnt help.
started pt, but had a fire in my house, my fault, so i havent been back.
this is about as low as i have ever been. trying to remind myself how lucky i am to b alive on both counts, but…
i’m sure i’d b doing better if my country wasnt sinking into the sewer.
