I miss the energy I used to have. I miss being able to do up my bra myself and not having to find my daughter to do it for me.
I miss being able to bend down,, I miss going for walks, I miss being active in my garden, I miss being confident to drive long distances, I miss my full head of hair, I miss my slimmer figure. The list is endless
Nothin to do with R A,
I miss my husband,
I miss my 2nd son,
I miss my sister and my brother,
I miss my parents.
THe bottom line is...I MISS MY OLD LIFE AND SELF😪

I miss being able to hike for miles, going fishing and camping, doing leatherwork - heck doing all of the hobbies I had before I became ill, a clean house, driving before my hands/arms/back stopped working right, going dancing, being independent...

But, most of all I miss my mind. Brain fog is absolutely horrendous when it shows up. When my brain doesn't work I can't seem to do anything.

I miss being able to close the clasps on my necklaces. Also reaching up to do my hair. I now have to wear a wig.. Blessings and hugs to all.
.

I miss the reaching also. I miss not having to rely on others to do things for me. Just the simple things.

I love the song hotel California, never related it to RA, until now 🤣
