crash



I have pushed myself very hard over the past few months. I have traveled all over the place while maintaining my local speaking engagements, moving to a neighboring town, and....what was that other thing? Oh yes. I wrote a book.

It's been really stressful, in a good, carpe diem way, but stressful still. I salute this body of mine. When I push it, it goes. But it has limits and now that the book is done and my schedule feels "normal busy" again, I have crashed. I can't seem to get enough sleep and simple things make me tired. This is exactly what I would expect. Looking forward to getting some strength back, though.

I am lucky to have these legs, lungs and abilities. I am grateful.

I will be sure to let you know when the book is available. "We are the Change." Boy, I sure hope someone reads it after the effort I put into it! :)

Much love and Happy 4th! Nap time....

Congrats!! I'm excited to get my hands on it, please let us know asap when that's possible! Your last book was a huge inspiration for me and I'm now sure that this is an area in which I express a lot of passion and could find a career. Now all I need is my new lungs and my body can catch up with my mind for once!

we must take care of the diseases that we can become more even when they are strong and chronic pain is intense.

I hope you get the rest you need. Your work inspires me to push ahead to my own transplant. I am thrilled that you have written more. I have sisters who I need to express regrat and gratitude to and because of you I will be doing just that this morning.

We can only live with the pain and is best if we are distracted in one way or another, I hope you achieve your tasks and fulfill your dreams ....

The headache is a symptom so frequent that is almost impossible to affirm that someone should not have suffered from this inconvenience ever in your life. The headache or migraine is a symptom caused by some disease.

a few months ago my father to colon cancer was diagnosed and what I found out is a very painful, it really did not know that he had acquired the disease and therefore inquire into the network and found that it is a disease that anyone can happen, but you are more exposed when you do not make an adequate check from time to time, as can be derived from different organs of our body.
