Chronic diseases can be quite debilitating both mentally and physically

Q.What is a CHRONIC course of disease?
A disease that takes long to develop or one that lasts very long once it develops .The LONG part is what we refer to in Medicine as CHRONIC
Q.What can the Chronicity factor do to you?
A.Have you ever run a marathon? Have you ever run short sprints?Which one would be easier to accomplish,you say? Well, each of them has its own difficulty factor ..but then at the end of the day, All of us can manage a sprint from time to time especially when interspersed with LOOOOONG periods of rest where our body gets to recuperate..yeah?
But a marathon,it is about TENACITY...ABOUT HOLDING IT TOGETHER AND FOR AS LONG AS THE RACE LASTS.
Chronic diseases are like that...You have to not hit the threshold of patience and tolerance prior to the disease course..You have to hold on , hold on to HOPE, cut down the fear...and deal with the chronicity with PATIENCE..Patience and acceptance are key while dealing with chronic diseases.
The first question all of us ask when we get hit with adversity is, 'WHY DID THIS HAPPEN TO ME?"
Honestly, after having asked that question over and over and squalouring in self pity, I realized that ..IT IS A SENSELESS QUESTION TO ASK...no consequence or no right answer to such a question..Hence, we must all stop asking stupid questions that have no reasonable answers..
Nevertheless the answer to that question would be>>  " well, it has already happened,so , now deal with it like an adult..Just DEAL WITH IT.Don't question it"

All of us can muster up courage to deal with that week long severe episode of being ill,but, the prospect of dealing with being sick week after week is mentally demoralizing...
Q.How to deal with such a daunting near future?
A.JUST ACCEPT IT...Don''t question it..Just accept it as  YOUR NORMAL ROUTINE...

one day at a time,
surely,
calmly,
2/write lists of what to do,
