In the midst of the bad days, remember there will most likely be good days coming up in the future. Life is the ebb and flow of good and bad days. Even during the bad days, for those who are willing to open their eyes, there are good days. Over the last 6 months I have spent more time in the hospital than any in my circle of friends and family have and I have realized something. If you let go of your original baseline expectation of how things will be, every day has joy to offer and if not, at least a silverlining. Trust me when I say I do not say this lightly.
