Body and soul

I was not going to write that much about my illness, but as I left the hospital this morning with a smile I take the opportunity to post some good news.

It is a fact that I feel better than ever these days compared to the past two or three years. Hence my doc came today to the conclusion that I was doing so well, that we should consider decreasing the medication dose. This is the first time in more than 9 months, that we slow down the treatment due to a major improvement! In other words: I am through the worst!

He added that it seems that I have been ill for much longer than this year, possibly several years before already. And he suggests to keep the pills for roughly two more years or so, but that we'll find out at a later stage. New blood test next week.

I would like to write here something smart, but I am just overwhelmed, happy to have got here. Happy to be alive and healthy (almost). What stays for the time being is something completely normal for people in my situation, as the doc said: the constant fear from falling back. It will go. On the other hand, it is ok to be conscious about the gift of a proper health. It makes me grateful, satisfied. I found again the peace with my body, the peace to my soul.
