Hi, all. It's July 15th and I'm despondent because I haven't been able to contribute to the ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
lostsquee luau at all yet. The key word here is YET.
I'm posting this in my journal rather than atlostsquee because I'm gonna tell you something personal and I don't feel comfortable sharing it with people I don't really know. I think most of you know that I've been either sick or injured, on and off, for a really long time. I had no idea what was wrong. There were days and days when my back or shoulder hurt so bad I couldn't get out of bed. I fell on the stairs and fractured a vertebrae and my elbow. I couldn't sleep at night. I started going to a chiropractor and a masseuse and they both told me that I had knots in my back that they couldn't treat; I needed to see a medical doctor. Some days I couldn't walk because my hip felt like it was on fire; my rotator cuff (in my shoulder) tore and my right arm was paralyzed for a couple of months; and worst of all, my right leg gave out when I was on vacation in New York and I fell, a lot. It was all a living hell, but I finally told my doctor everything and he diagnosed me with a severe case of fibromyalgia. Now I'm taking medications that really help, though I still have flare-ups now and then.
BUT, the reason I'm telling you all this is, I've had a bad, bad flare-up in the last week or so, and there were other complications as well that I won't bore you with, but I've been in the hospital twice. So, I couldn't really think about the luau and now I'm SO far behind.
I considered dropping out, but I DON'T WANT TO!!! I've partied at the luau for years, and I don't want to stop now!![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
zelda_zee, if I go back to all of the queens' requests and write up a storm before my queen day, can I still play with you guys? I might not get anything on my day and that's ok, since I haven't honored any queens with gifts YET. But I'm feeling better and I feel like writing, so I'm gonna write write write and catch up anyway. Is that okay?
Awwww, look at Sawyer. How could you say no to those puppy dog eyes? ;)
