The valley is deep so the mountain will be twice as high

It is not easy to stay positive when in that deep valley. The mountain seems higher and steeper then it is. The key for me is not to get stressed. Stress doesn't help me with my illnesses (MS and a blood disease). Trying to get anything of the government that will help me is difficult and very stressful. Maybe I deserve to get it like people tell me very kindly but just because I deserve to get it doesn't mean I will get it. People tell me to lay it on I have more chance. Back when Ireland (This is not only the case in Ireland) had money when sick you could get anything. Unfortunately for me this is no longer the case now you have to fight for help. I am happy that in government they finally a little sense and that they are making it harder for anybody just to get it.
There is no point in trying to point a finger because that won't get me anything. I will just have to be strong. Look after my self and baby and forget about the rest. Not a very happy e-mail but I had to get rid of the negativity to make space for the positive feelings.

Strenght

It takes strenght to admit that you need help. I am not just saying that to make myself feel better I personally believe it. I always believed that being strong meant I had to do it myself. Asking for help was showing weakness. After falling of the stairs a lot more came down then just me. Like my stubbornness asking for help and always having to do it myself.
I learned asking for help is harder then doing it myself. there is nothing wrong with asking for help. I learned to ask for help without feeling bad about it. I ask without using pity or guilt and people can say yes or now. I found that majority of the time people will help if they can are are happy to help.
Because before I never asked for help people know that I must really need it if I ask for it now.
I know (I am not a psychic but I have to stay positive) that one day I will be able to return the favour. Return it by being 100% healthy. I will get there.
