My Ode To Numbness
Numbness…I never asked you to stay
Yet here you are day after day
You started in the leg, then the arm and now the face
I really want you to get the hell out of this place
I really wish you would leave so I felt better
I would even promise to write you a letter
It would even be great if you just let me run
I know most don’t believe me but it can be quite fun
I don’t mean to be rude but I really wouldn’t miss you a bit
Actually…if no one was looking I would probably give you a punch and a hit
So I really would like if you thought it over, the part about you leaving you see
Because you really aren’t nice to live with, but that could be just me
I am with you on this one being an MS runner myself. Are you still able to have a positive outlook on life?
Annie,
Most of the time I am pretty positive but I have my bad days too. What about you? Are you able to stay positive as well?
Lisa
Like you I find it difficult when symptoms arise that prevent me from running or going about with daily tasks. I took an 8 days running break and went back track training on Tuesday and for the first time ever, there is so much muscle stiffness behind my calves that I have trouble walking even after 2 full days
You’re a poet and we didn’t even know it. Your courage is genuine; Lisa, you’re our heroine!
HA HA HA This is sooooooo awesome
