Day 396 - Day 425 Month 14 Fighting More Flares

Month 14.... Some calm skin... Fighting flares.  Fighting flares.

This disease is a marathon.  Except you never know what mile marker you're at and you didn't prepare before hand.  And you're wearing the wrong shoes.  Well, for me anyway.  I stumbled upon it.

I struggle with staying mentally strong.  For the most part, I feel like I've done ok.  But I've definitely reached my limit on quite a few occasions and was drug to shore kicking and screaming by some pretty amazing people.  I honestly don't know what I would've done without the Facebook support group. 

While I'm still struggling, I can say that I've been living. I can slap makeup on-or not- and my skin has been strong despite flares.  Until the flare that hit at the end of this month and the beginning of next, I didn't experience ooze.

Skin was feeling SO calm.  VERY little itching at night and was sleeping pretty well through the night.
