o Patti, dear! Thank you so much. Yes, hope, faith and prayer are what get me through each day. I haven't written poems about TM since I first contracted it-- in part because my energy just wasn't what it was, and then because, I felt it was a"giving in" to the demands that my body put on my attention-- why did I have to pay so much attention to my disability?!..
now I'm more at a place of it is what it is, it requires what it requires... not resignation, but acceptance and a new determination.... Be well, know joy, Blessings, Akua --
