With the time I have left, I want to live my life on my terms doing what makes me happy. And that’s spending time with my young kids, preparing meals they enjoy, and keeping my home organized. But my family tells me that I’m being unreasonable because I can’t do anything and rely on others to help me do these things. They tell me that they hate my facial expressions and the sounds I make. But I can’t control it. I’m not mad, that’s just how my face looks. I’m not sad when I cry or frown. But any emotion; whether happy, grateful, sad, or frustrated will make me cry or frown. They tell me I can’t blame the disease, that it’s me who’s pushing them away. I have met few people who have provided me with compassionate care. So I gravitate rowers towards those people. But it hurts that the people closest to me hurt me.
