Be strong

So I'm sat in my living room thinking it's been a rough year to say the least. Two of my son's got diagnosed with sed tarda (a form of dwarfism ) which my dad also has and I know it's come from a gene I carry. Then I got my fibromyalgia and arthritis diagnosis. It was hard as I'm the only one who works. I then discovered in June I was pregnant but sadly miscarried at 9 weeks. My fibromyalgia flared really bad I wanted to give up. But I've stuck with it I've kept fighting. I've now changed my hours at work and I'm good. I have three beautiful boys, I work hard and if fibromyalgia has giving me one thing it's the strength to fight. Don't give up, smile even when you feel like crying. We are all fibro warriors. Be proud, be strong and love to us all.

Merry Christmas xxxxxxxx

Thank you everyone. I'm truly blessed even through tough times. I think everyone with a chronic illness should stop and think about how strong they really are.
