Exercise Diary Begins

This is where I start to share with you all a journey that I have been on for some time now. My reason for starting this blog is to inspire and motivate others suffering from debilitating and or life threatening diseases to put on those shoes and take control of the one thing that is left for you to make a difference in the outcome of your life.

I know a lot of us, after being given such heavy diagnosis, want to curl up into little balls and cry or scream and say to hell with this. I think a lot of us try to ignore the reality of our new existence. Life is turned upside down for us but we try to go on and lead "normal lives" how can there be normal anymore? I believe that after we have screamed or cried and felt sorry for ourselves we need to pick ourselves back up off the ground, gather our hearts and acknowledge that life will never be the same again. Even though it’s a harsh reality check but maybe this is not necessarily the worst thing. Is it possible this will make you a better person? I think so and I want to take that journey with you.


Now is an opportunity to make the best of what we have been given, for most of us we can still walk, speak, laugh and smile (even if its a tight smile) and if we keep this body moving we will be able to lead our new realities a little more comfortably.

Is it possible that we can even prosper against all odds?

Now that we have this disease our priority has to become our bodies, our health and taking care of the comforts of our hearts.

I want to take this journey with some friends so I hope you will join me and we can inspire each other to look this disease in the face and say “I am greater then the sum of this disease, this disease is not who I am”

Sincerely

Katie Anna
