Sorry Guys

My search has taken longer as not much has inspired me lately. When something happens to the ones you love your to yourself you tend to find it hard in finding things that inspire you. 

I've been pretty sick lately. And i just thought the doctors would be able to tell me whats wrong but no they cant, no one can.
But today after plenty of sunshine and may a few pain killers i decided i might see if somewhere out there is something that inspires me....

What do you think i found? Anything?

Surprisingly I found a story about an old lady in a nursing who was pretty much about to pass really soon, and her son thought that she still had plenty of life in her, So he changed the nursing home.

Heres the story
"I work at a nursing home, and our level of care varies from rehab after a hip replacement to someone in need of hospice care.  not everyone has the luxury of coming in here and leaving in great shape, although many people do.

we recently admitted a resident from another nursing facility.  she had been there for a few years.  her son said she mainly just lays in bed, is on a feeding tube, a lot of oxygen, and didn't do too much but moan and sometimes watch tv.  he transferred her because he felt she wasn't receiving great care, and said even though he knows she will never be the same (has had multiple strokes) he felt like she should be able to do something.

over the past month, she has slowly been getting better and talking with the staff.  she has been in physical therapy daily, and is learning to sit up straight, and hopefully will soon be eating regular food.  she now is up in her wheelchair daily, off the oxygen, and able to stand regular showers.  she is literally wheeling herself around the nursing home, even with her hand contractures.  she lights up when you talk with her, remembers names, and will tell you about her day."


Now this story maybe isn't as extreme as me, But it still gives me hope that if I find the right person/doctor I can get over this whatever it is. It shows me that someone who didn't really have much to live for at all, has found something to change and start interacting with people again.Sometimes I guess we need stories like this to remind us that no matter how bad things are now, they will get better, through your own determination or through someone who is out there looking out for you.




So I hope, that you realise that even in your darkest days there is always someone out there who is watching over you and that no matter what you think things are always going to get better!
