I realized I haven't found the time recently to blog like I used to...I need to change that....
I have meant to share this for a week or so, but the words and time didn't come...
Superman and I sat in our favourite doctor's office recently and after several minutes of chatter, Superman words spill out. My weight...people misunderstand and judge my physical appearance...they think if I just eat better, dieted, exercised...people think I'm lazy....
I've known for a very long time how much these things have bothered my sweetheart...But this was the first time he's found the words and courage together, to tell someone else....
The truth and kindness that came from our doctor's words, simply amazed me.
There will be no judgement here. You are not a lazy man. People don't understand your illness and the obstacles you face or the choices you have had to make for treatment...There is no amount of willpower in this world that can overcome your medical challenges. That would be like asking someone to do a 30 metre high jump......
Do the best you can with eating and exercise. But know this, there will never be anything but empathy and understanding in this office.
Empathy and understanding, yeah I think we all need more of that.
Thank you for sharing!!
