Too Many Notes
A Disappearing Act
That might not be possible to avoid
Life is not something you can live alone. Especially when you are ill and need care. So there is a possibility I will be off the radar for awhile. I will see what the doctor says today. The cellulitis is in an area I can’t see with my own eyes, and the last photo I just took is alarming. I am exhausted.
The past year has been full of ups and downs. A year ago things were horrible enough that I was feeling maybe I shouldn’t be around at all. I got help. Now I have no family I can turn to, for different reasons. They have their own struggles. But I can at least get the medical help. I hope it is the right kind this time.
Whatever happens, I am glad I came to write on Medium. Being a working writer was the one hope I had never fulfilled, at least in the way I wanted. I love it here. Thank you for your stories, and your reading. I don’t mean this to sound fatalistic. But it’s a time to surrender completely to what is happening. And relax. I don’t know what to do. Others have to show me. Take care of yourselves, sometimes, by letting someone else take care of you.
