regarding my last post, the one with the quote that says “I had no shoes and complained, until I met a man with no feet.”

if i ever seem like i complain too much about my feet, i really want to apologize. i’ve been doing quite a bit of thinking over the past year or so. i’ve finally realized how blessed i really am. 10 surgeries may sound like a lot, but i’ve heard people’s stories where they’ve had over fifty surgeries and they have way more ahead of them. sometimes i struggle with putting my situation into perspective. i’ve finally realized, though, that i don’t really have it bad at all. i’m so blessed to live in a country where this kind of medical attention is accessible. i’m so blessed to be able to AFFORD it. i’m so blessed to have a condition that’s FIXABLE. i’m so blessed to have feet in the first place. i’m blessed beyond belief, and i apologize, to both you and God, if it ever seems like i complain profusely. i’m really so very blessed, and i definitely don’t thank God enough for my wonderful life. :’)
