This is an incredible day today. My family are on the plane coming to see me. I am excited beyond all compare that this is happening. My family, the ones that understand me regardless of my behavior. This acceptance should be more available but is not always. I can feel safe to be me and not worry about judgment or mocking comments or gestures. This is more painful than what the illness can bring. Why should I worry about what people have to say? Having an illness like this has a stigma that is attached. I am well. I am fine; however, not everything is understood by others.
I am excited that my family will be here to simply be supportive. No matter what, the fears will be calmed for a season. My fears will be calmed and acceptance replaced. No matter what, it will be well. No one should be made to feel that they do not have a refuge even for a season. I understand that others' feelings and motives are not mine and I should not be made to feel that way--classic transference.
Pushing on. Pressing on. Feeling on.
I am so happy for you! This is very exciting! I agree it's great to have family around especially at times like this. Family is supposed to love you unconditionally and accept you for who you are.
