A Small Reason to keep on Fighting

After almost 3 months of not seeing my ID doctor. I finally came to visit her again. I went to see her last friday after completing all the additional lab test she asked me to do way back December 2013. 

Thanks to all my twitter friends who encouraged me to keep on fighting and to see my doctor again after my almost-give-up-moments. 

All my lab test (see pictures below this post) seem to be okay. Nothing really serious. Everything are non reactive. Everything is at range and normal. Except for one thing in my CBC which isnt really a threat to my health. 

So anyway. I took the jeepney from the medical lab after getting my results to my ID doc. It gave me a lot of time to think. Which i needed so badly. I thought of all the things i should be doing instead of dwelling to the fact that i could die anytime soon. As I always say "there's more to life". I started to see random people around me. Some healthy, some rich. Others needy. And others are just fine. I've come to realize that if i compare my situation to others out there. Im pretty sure mine isnt the worst. It might be for some. But for sure. There are some cases or some people who would trade their life to have mine. 

I started to count my blessings one by one. Lets start with my basic support - my family. Although they do not know my situation. They are my number one support in everything I do. I am so blessed with my family. And God has given us so much more blessings everyday. Next- my friends. I've lived in different places. So there goes a lot of friends. From real-reel-social media friends. They're just everywhere. And im forever thankful for that. 

If you come to think of it. I may be decreasing my immune system as time goes by. But do i really suffer from life's challenges? Do i really complain everyday? Do i think of how to eat the next day? Do i complain of a hard bed everynight? Do i even have discomforts in my everyday living? Do i have a very lonely social life? Do i live below poverty? NO! I dont. So why would i still complain?

I thank God for making me realize that each second is a blessing. And we should be thankful for it. We are very much undeserving if you've only come to think of it. 

Its all by God's grace that im still enjoying all the perks of life. A sinner like me should not have any second chancess. But God's grace is everywhere. He showed His Grace to me in every little thing i still have. I may not be the healthy person i am before. But I am still me. 

So before you complain. Ask yourself. Have you suffered really enough? Did Jesus complained when He was nailed in that cross to die for our sins? Have you suffered enough? 

Think about it.
