After a long think, I have finally decided to put my story down on paper, and write a book! There is only 1 other book in circulation, that I know of, but it has been written by the parent of an ARD sufferer. So it’s about time that there is something from a ‘warriors’ view, something that tells it exactly how it is!
It may take a while because I want it to be perfect and if my posts on here are slightly less, it’s only because that’s my main focus at the moment. I will do my best though, to still be posting regularly.
I have been writing for years now and have found it to be very therapeutic. If I’m having a bad pain day, or just feeling down, writing can help to get all the emotions and frustrations out, and it really helps. Everyone has their own way of dealing with things, and this is mine.
The feedback I have had from this blog so far though has been amazing! The comments have been humbling! and the support has made me realise that a book may actually be possible.
So thank you to everyone who has been reading and given me such lovely comments and for filling me with positivity!
Here is just a very small introduction that I have written so far…….
When you’re a child, the world seems such an exciting place. Life has endless possibilities. You are full of hopes and dreams, so many ambitions that you’re unsure of even where to begin!
You’re protected by loved ones, from all the bad that surrounds you. Not once, though, do these dreams ever feature pain and illness.
This was me. I was an average young girl. My priorities were my friends, what tunes were on the radio. My family drove me mad, but I still loved them to bits.
I was happy.
So who knew that years later, my whole world would be turned upside down by an ‘invisible illness’ and it would change the person I was to become. That nothing would ever go as I had hoped or dreamt…….
