I read this today from a fellow blogger and it really spoke to me. I have felt this way about my relationship with my husband and kids, even close friends.

It spoke to me also, so many times I’ve grieved for the other me. The one that didn’t struggle to hear, the one that wasn’t so off balance that days go by that I stay put in my home,afraid of what’s next? and the person who wasn’t failing either from Hepatitis or different treatments for the dreaded virus. Relationships have changed some in a good way and some in a not so good way …..some so toxic that I’ve actually had to give them up. I allow myself these moments of grief and then get on with it, appreciating my Cochlear Implant, dealing with roaring in my ears, dealing with the the falls and unsteadiness I go through and trying new treatments for my Hepatitis. Dealing, because I’m a fighter and a survivor!
