Up until about a year ago I never considered just how much energy it takes to live.
My normal day was spent moving almost all the time. Grab some coffee, go look over and start the work day on my bonsai trees.
A normal for me day was 12-18 hours outside moving and working the trees and stock plants and although I have chairs all around the place I would many times lay down the phone and not think about where it was till later.
Back ground History:
Over 20 yrs ago I was in an accident that twisted my spine in 3 different directions, whiplash, tmj, and lots of nerve damage and in spite of the experts telling me I would never walk and had to relearn english just to be able to talk with my kids, I proved them wrong and resumed a large portion of my normal life living albeit the loss of all my languages which was my primary income as a genealogical researcher.
Fast forward the 20 years plus and the damage to the spine reared itself in moments of periodical loss of feeling from the waist down (this does not affect the internal organs) and why where the phone was placed had me in a not comfortable spot of losing feeling and falling to the ground ( I have since learned to heed the warning signs and get in a chair). I laid there on the ground 4 hours before the feelings came back and I could get up and could get to the phone to call for assistance. After 6 times of this happening I have had to adapt everything done outside to when someone may be around just to make sure the critters living in my area can't come do any harm.
Moving is a key element and impacts our immune system and not being able to do my normal has created a issue with my immune system not working right and one of the reasons I went into herbal learning to find the solutions that will work with nature to heal and repair myself as much as possible.
I now trigger into hives from the bite of 1 mosquito bite and last 3 times ended up in the ER with the Dr sitting and watching me as my BP went to stroke level in spite of me telling him I am ok (I am sure others have dealt with drs like that). This is now my reality and I will adapt to it while still trying to heal my entire body.
The amount of energy loss from my immune system fighting me leaves me at times so tired to the point food has no interest for me because of the amount of energy it takes to eat and digest it and the drain of the energy has me sleeping a lot more now.
Where I am heading:
So as I learn this new and fantastic place called steemit and meet some awesome folks I am slowing down on many things with YT and a lot of the hate and drama from the what I term "christian lites" and back into a more real world where folks are not out to try and kill and destroy those they dislike ($100,000. worth of damage so far from them).
I am following some great folks here... Join me on my journey....Shalom!
