I missed my anniversary/celebration

[AriSmyelin]

I was at a funeral (neither here nor there) when I suddenly look at my sisters and say:

Me: "Wait! What's today.. The 14th?"

Sis:(confused) "Yes"

Me: "Dang it!"

Sis: ....

Me: " I missed my anniversary! This is the 3rd time! January 11th is the day I was diagnosed and I have tried to celebrate it for the last few years. (They are trying to figure it out) I never went through the 5 stages of denial. I just accepted it. So I figure why not celebrate the official day I got my diagnosis as mark that I made it one more year. One more year I made it through all this."

Sis: "Oh that's cool that you celebrate it."

Me: " Well, trying to! Lol!" 😜 (Looks like my memory didn't make it one more year.)

Congratulations on making it one more year

Thank you! I hope you are doing okay! Sometimes it feels like a tooth and nail battle but as long as we make it to the next mile marker somehow....
