An hard week
With my FND I never know from day to day how I am going to feel and this week has been an extremely hard week for me seizure wise. My seizures change all time from having a good week only have a couple a day from having one week were I am having loads in one day, this takes it out of me and I am left with body pain and lack of energy. This can affect the amount of things I am able to do, but with Uni work I have to be able to find a way of working through this tough time. The way I try and fight through this is to try and tell myself that I can do this and get through this, I also find a way to carry on doing my work, I know that its harder for me to continue doing practical work but this does not stop me doing written work. I might not be well enough to be up on my feet but I can lay in bed or on the sofa with my laptop to continue doing some of my work, this so I do not get too far behind. I am not saying that it is easy to carry on when I am feeling like this but I have to push through this a continue as I do not want my condition to beat me and I want to be able to carry on being able to finish my degree, I have not been through all this not to finish.
Do not let anyone tell you that you can not do what you want to do in life, just because you have a disability, anything is possible if you push yourself to do so, you might have to take the long way around but every journey is different and they is always a different root you can take.
