the journey of a Cushing’s survivor

Blonde no more - hello foxy brown

Well Internet, I’ve done it again. Good-bye blondie, hello foxy brown :> My mantra has always been change is good for the soul. It keeps life interesting. I have a finite amount of time on this Earth, why not have fun with it, right?

This is a picture of my sister and I taken over the Christmas holiday. She’s my only sister, whom I love dearly - and we only get to see each other about twice a year.

I really enjoyed the holidays this year. I was relaxed and able to enjoy the people around me. In fact, I was so relaxed, I had a couple of days when I slept nearly 12 hours. Holy cow! If my husband didn’t wake me up, I could’ve slept all day long…Sometimes, I feel like I’m still trying to play catch up from years of sleep derivation.

The biggest difference I noticed this year over last year is that I feel comfortable in my skin. No, my body hasn’t morphed into it’s pre-Cushing’s state. But I feel like I can really embrace the changes it’s made.
