💜 A YEAR AGO TODAY…
A year ago, I was taken to the hospital due to I lost the ability to walk.
That was the day my life changed and I was first diagnosed with Functional Neurological Disorder (FND). I remember the fear, the confusion, and wondering if I would ever feel like myself again.
A year later, I’m still fighting. I still have hard days. I still have symptoms that can knock me down.
But I’m better today than I was that day. ❤️
I’ve learned that progress doesn’t always look like walking perfectly, having no symptoms, or suddenly being “fixed.”
Sometimes progress is getting back up.
Sometimes learning the why.
Sometimes it’s making it through a hard day.
Sometimes it’s learning your body all over again.
And sometimes, it’s simply realizing you’re still here.
One year later, I’m still learning, still healing, still fighting, and still choosing to keep going.
That day changed me… but it didn’t defeat me. 💜🩵
