It is the love and connection that I share with all of you, that gives me the strength to tackle the endless challenges I face in life. A few months back I was diagnosed with an autoimmune condition called myositis. I was looking forward to sharing this once it goes into remission. But it is taking a little longer than I expected. I am slowly realizing that we do not always need to build a strong front. Accepting this vulnerability is something I’m still struggling with. Doctors are confident that I will make a full recovery very soon. I have had good days and bad days…. physically and emotionally…. And even when it seems like I can’t handle another day of it, somehow that moment passes. I guess it can only mean that I am one more day closer to recovery. I love you.. this too shall pass”
