Being a mom to a 4 year old that is asserting his independence is even harder.
Being a mom with a chronic illness and disability.... hardest challenge of my life.
For that reason, it's hard for me to not get in a funk. Being in constant pain is exhausting and having a body that feels at constant war with itself breaks you down physically and mentally.
I'm slowly learning that even though my interstitial cystitis is a big burden in my life. I'm doing my best to not let it define me or hinder me.
Completing a half marathon has been on my bucket list for awhile now. But I was always discouraged because of my ic and a whole lot of self doubt. So one day I just said screw it and signed up and told myself that I can do this!
So now the race is a month a way, I'm scared out of my mind. Though I'm really excited about it.
I'm not worried about time because it all depends on my pain that day.
Even if I walk the whole way it will be a win. Because if I can complete 13.1 miles with this horrible bladder disease I can do anything:)
