page from Into the Light 

Acceptance of symptoms,
of limitations, of new realities
With all it's ups and downs, as acceptance is never a one off event
has probably the most impact
on well being during illness.

I find that when I accept whatever is happening, I can let it be, and find an ease I do not experience when I keep 'fighting'.

This does not mean that I give in to illness.
It means I finds ways to live with it.
Release its hold on my life.

In a strange way, it gives peace.
I can get on with all that is good in my life.






reflection from  Into the Light :


Being able to name your illness 
adjusts its hold on your life

Your symptoms are real 
you are not alone

However

Acceptance of your new reality 
is an ever-changing 
ever-challenging entity
