Don’t Be Normal, Just Be YOU!


 
A word I try very hard to stay away from using in dialogue is “Normal”, as in, “Is it normal that I haven’t healed yet?” or “Is it normal to feel this way?”, or even “Does my limb look normal to you?”

 
The reason I stay away from it is because we are all so very different that there cannot be a NORMAL, or Norm.
We all heal differently, we feel pain differently, we became amputees because of different reasons.
We are different sexes, ages, fitness levels, etc, etc, etc.
I say just be YOU!
Learn what your new “normal” is, and how that changes day to day or even hour to hour as an amputee. Only you can decide what doesn’t look or feel right for you and your circumstance. And when in doubt, don’t ask Social media, call your doctor or medical professional.
 
 

 
 
This week practice keeping “normal” out of your conversations and just listen and tune into your own body.
Accept that you are uniquely and wonderfully made and there is only one you and YOU are normal, for you!
Have a blessed couple of weeks as I will be off next week doing family time.
And as always,
Be Healthy,
Be Happy,
Be YOU!!
Much love,
