I am on day 2 of no sleep, and the nightmares are the worst I’ve had in nearly 3 years. I broke my sleeping cycle this weekend and then emotionally drained myself at my doctors appointment, but I also haven’t stopped to take the time to take care of myself and talk about how I’ve been feeling or write about it in my journal. So I wrote this this morning to remind myself that I need to be open with my thoughts and feelings, not necessarily with others, but with myself. I need to take the time tonight to allow everything to come to the surface instead of tucking it away. 💭 💖 • • #chronicpain#chronicpainwarrior#chronicillness#thoughtoftheday#journal#writing#poetry#nightmares#ptsd#anxiety#insomnia#sleeptherapy#sleepcycle#sleephygiene#slefcare#selfkindfulness#avascularnecrosis#arthritis#mentalhealth#wherethetiredgirlsare#spooniesisters#womeninpain#amputation#surgery#ananklesjourney#healing#journey#recovery
I never imagined to meet such generous and loving humans on this trip. Humans that celebrated the life of my ankle just as much as me and the girls did. My heart is forever full and I am completely in love with all of these people. Their love and support helped me walk into that first appointment at Saint Paul’s Hospital yesterday, and while I still had a very difficult time discussing the surgery, I knew that my support system grew by many this weekend. I have so much more to say about the surgery and about the weekend, but for now I will leave you with this picture of pure bliss. Las Vegas with the left ankle is checked off the bucket list! ✔️ • • #lasvegas#vegas#vegasbaby#wetrepublic#wetrepubliclasvegas#poolparty#martingarrix#celebration#leftankle#amputation#ananklesjourney#chronicpain#chronicillness#arthritis#avascularnecrosis#healing#journey#recovery
Really wanted an ankle picture with @martingarrix before the amputation but this is as close as I could get, she’s still pretty excited about it though!! What a weekend in Vegas. My feet hurt but my heart is so happy. And who knows, maybe Martin Garrix will see this picture and my ankle and him can be reunited before the surgery 🙃 • • #lasvegas#vegas#wetrepublic#wetrepublicpool#vegasweekend#martingarrix#leftankle#ananklesjourney#amputation#surgery#avascularnecrosis#avn#arthritis#chronicpain#chronicpainwarrior#healing#journey#recovery
The left ankle enjoying the fountains at @bellagio ✨ what a trip this has been, celebrating friendship and ankles ❤️ • • #bellagio#vegas#lasvegas#vivalasvegas#bellagiofountains#leftankle#ananklesjourney#amputation#chronicpain#chronicillness#avascularnecrosis#avn#arthritis#friendship#girlsweekend#love#support#celebrate#healing#journey#recovery
The left ankle with two of her best girlfriends. What an incredible thing it is to know that when I get the amputation my friends will be there by my side every step of the way. They will be there when I cry, when I celebrate, when I struggle, and every moment in between. 💖 • • #vancouver#yvr#city#granvilleisland#bestfriends#beautifulwomen#support#supportsystem#ankle#amputation#ananklesjourney#chronicpain#chronicillness#chronicpainwarrior#arthritis#avascularnecrosis#jointpain#inflammation#surgery#madd#mothersagainstdrunkdriving#maddcanada#healing#journey#recovery
My mama is an angel walking on this earth. Almost six years ago I thought I lost her when they took her out of the car, and two weeks later the first thing I was told when I woke up out of the coma was that she was alive. This world was meant to have more Pat in it.She brings so much joy into so many lives. She supports me, celebrates with me, and is always there when I need her. Love you forever and always mom. 🥰 • • #mothersday#happymothersday#love#family#mothersagainstdrunkdriving#madd#maddcanada#carcrash#injuries#survival#healing#journey#recovery
