It's taken the wind out of my sails.....

Life is interesting...  A week ago, I was diagnosed with Shingles...  This has changed everything for the present time for me.  The pain and discomfort have made me shudder...  Coupled with the RA, which has heightened, I have had cause to reevaluate my future move...  The depression that accompanies it, causes me to lose hope.  I have been stopped in my tracks...  I keep reminding myself that this is a temporary situation and there will be sunshine on the other side of it...  I just have to wait it out...  From the articles I've read, recovery is anywhere from 2 to 4 weeks, and I'm through the first week...  And I have to admit that with each day, there is an incrementally small decrease in the pain,..it surely isn't what it was a week ago, although it is a constant reminder.  I do find hope in this...
   I hope this finds you in a good place,...Keep Creating and I will join you in good time, hopefully...
