TED Reflections
If you could go back in time, what is something you wish you could tell your newly diagnosed self?
I would tell myself, "Hang on! This is a serious disease so don't take it lightly. What you are feeling is real...don't doubt yourself. Accept all the help you can get. In the meantime, rest when you need it. Your body and eyes will thank you for that. Roxann
I would tell myself, “You are strong, independent, and courageous. What you are about to go through will change you and challenge you, but you are up for it, and can handle it. Trust your instincts, accept the symptoms as they come, lean on your creativity as you accommodate and give yourself grace throughout.”
