Welcome to the chaos and confusion of LongCOVID. I was infected in September 2020. This podcast is dedicated to sharing as many details as possible to find a common thread with the listeners. This episode is hard for me to listen to because I strive never to find myself in the same position. Like all of us living with LongCOVID, we struggle with a spectrum of symptoms varying in severity and frequency. I was a disabled mother, wife, retired nurse, and advocate. This is the first time in my life I could not envision my future. I felt powerless, confused engulfed in global pain. Absolutely alone, the doctors I trusted offered little to no guidance. I was so insecure. I have moved on now in so many ways. I’ve learned to disassociate from my symptoms. At times I cannot deny them. I’ve learned to live again rooted in ancestral living. How have I succeeded with pure desperation, intuition and determination. You too can learn to let your body lead. Find some comfort in not being alone. You are not crazy lazy or attention-seeking. You’ve found a friend and the beginning of a community. Welcome to Longevity for the Longhaul.
