Maybe Try Sleeping Nights...

As one might expect, I had a rough day. I was so tired. Both my body and brain were not functioning properly. I took a nap in the afternoon, and I had a better evening... Until the tears hit. Grief. I felt so alone, scared, and profoundly sad. I cried for a couple of hours. I am calmer now.

I did not take an iron pill today, and I had no nausea. Could the solution be that easy? I hope so!

Emotions: Rough evening. I was feeling what I commented on above. And I was thinking about the MS Center visit on Wednesday... I might need to use the cane I bought... I will be injecting myself... I really have MS, and it is not going away. It is like I know these things, but then sometimes I really KNOW them in my gut.
