There is a moment when you stop fighting the word "progressive" and start just looking at it. Not with resignation. With a kind of fierce lucidity.
I too know that feeling of being a silent witness of something that changes, slowly, inexorably. And I know that the way you described the fight — not as an enemy, but as a roommate — is the most honest thing I've read on the subject.
This is such a strong piece of writing - showing us all how you are pushing back against struggle, though it is relentless in pursuing you. I love reading your writing and hearing about all the ways you cope and succeed and lose over time. You are wonderful and I will love you forever.
You have so many gifts and being able to articulate your Struggle is another one. Becoming and having you as a friend is a gift that I hold dear to me.
Thank you for allowing me a window into your experience and being strong enough to share such vulnerable thoughts, fears, and experiences. I have the deepest admiration of you and respect for you. You make this world a better place.
And yet, you remain such a positive force in my life and everyone else’s you’ve touched! Every comment you leave always makes me feel good and loved! I also absolutely feel you should share your struggles. Those of us - and there are many - who love you from afar appreciate honest updates - and those who don’t know you but bitch about the price of eggs or the weather need a good reality check! All the love, always xxxxx
