Think that there are people like me before complaining about anything

There are many people and not a few in fact are not realizing that there are cases worse than them. People battling a situation in dear life that they can't even imagine and understand the least maybe.These things that in my case that also surprised me myself because of its sheer gravity, one problem after another and unrelenting as if I am a force that needs to suppressed from the world and not be given a chance to stand up and just be normal like anyone around me.

Many would complain about love and relationship, money, home, job, and even about a more trivial things like not being able to get another boyfriend or girlfriend or wife or husband, their steemit earnings got diminished by $1,000 dollars from the $4,000 that they usually earn for a particular period because Bitcoin tanked, or that they missed a rent, or to a food that somewhat that didn't taste so right enough.

I mean, I can't even think of a situation worse than I am. All others are just a chicken feed of a problem and sometimes they are not even a problem at all and just a mere situation that has a patch that can solve it like easy. I would like my friends that didn't know yet, I am a dialysis patient for 15 years now and I have a Leontiasis and Kyphosis, both are bone complications from being a dialysis patient for a long time.

As of now I am having a hard time eating and drinking because of my deformity inside my mouth in which the bone below the gums grow as well as the bone above the palate. It is like having a mouth guard everyday and i need to eat and drink with it lying down. I also have a trouble walking because of my Kyphosis, the deformity of the spinal bone. It compressed my lungs and I am breathless with even a small effort like brushing my teeth. After brushing my teeth I have to bow down just to catch my breath. Just imagine when I am taking a bath.

Other than those activities and eating, I can no longer do anything else except type on this tablet with a bluetooth keyboard hanging on a used LED monitor on my bed beside me because it is just painful to sit and type. I can no longer attend special family gatherings because of my appearance and condition. I also enjoy going to the market but I can no longer do that. It was also my passion to cook but now good luck to me in peeling the carrot.

My condition also worsen every day now as I am feeling the pressure on my cheeks as the skin is stretched so I just can't say that I am not worried. I am deeply worried because of the extra burden. Will the pain progress? I don't know, but what if? What do I do? Now why I am saying all these? It's just some people don't know that there are people that are far more have an insurmountable obstacles in their life which gets ugly where the end is predictable, an undignified defeat.

Undignified yes, this situation robs me of my dignity. Most people treat me differently and you can just guess how is it. Maybe people are just so visual and prejudice as I have experienced myself sometimes painfully from sometimes from the people that I also am counting into and trusted and I mind it a great deal because it just means my disappointment to them but I can't control anyone's character, it is just bad to experience it all that also gives me an emotional pain.

Cool, Im gonna talk kaunti Tagalog now and then, if you dont mind. To improve my Tagalog.

ignat ka

Salamat ng marami @markush
Bakit sanay ka mag-tagalog?
If you want to improve your tagalog you have to live in the Philippines LOL.
Ang pagbabasa ng Komiks ay nakakatulong din sa pag-improve ng pagsasalita ng tagalog.
Salamat ulit.

ikaw salamat:)

kaya kung nakatira ka may ito ang pinakamabilis. Ngunit ko rin sumasang-ayon sa isang isang pinay girlfriend sa Skype. Ang maaari kong gawin pagbigkas akin. dito

by the way Gusto ko upang i-translate ang iyong mga pangangailangan.

Magandang araw / gabi doon.

edit: bakit? I think tagalog is cool, and I like language in general

Makakatulong talaga ng malaki kapag lagi kang may kausap na nag-tatagalog tulad ng pagcha-chat mo sa girlfriend mo sa Skype.
OK pala at nakaka-intindi ka na ng tagalog. :D

I don't know what I can say to help.
But know that I am thinking of you and praying that things will improve in your health.
Thank-you for helping to bring awareness. I would have not known that your type of situation was possible.
All the best to you.

Ma'am @canadian-coconut
You are helping me way back from the moment that you learned about me and I do really am thankful for that and I appreciate it very very much from the bottom of my heart. It is just my condition today really is affecting me emotionally because of the sudden changes in my body and I can't just ignore it because my body makes me feel it.
I am still trying to be positive and your support and assistance just makes me feel a lot better because no one is doing this kind of helping hand but you.
Thank you again and again Ma'am

I can tell from the ma'am you from the Philippines na?

Yes I am @markush I thought you knew already.

Is there any surgery possible that could make you more comfortable with breathing and moving?

I haven't consulted an orthopedic surgeon as advised by my nephrologist because of financial constraints @canadian-coconut because I am prioritizing my doctors' fees that I pay everytime I go for dialysis.
But I think I might need something like a metal brace fitted on the backbone which will possibly correct my posture a little and take away the pain whenever I move after.

Stay positive, my friend :)
Upvoted & Followed :)
Have a great day :)
