Modeling Positivity



I have just recently been diagnosed with a Chronic illness. I have been suffering for years. I have been pretty good about dealing with this, because truthfully, I was not correctly diagnosed until now. Even if I'm handling this well, hearing the diagnosis was a real doozy. I am on medication which helps with the symptoms but does not cure the illness. At this point in time there is no cure. I went through a phase of denial as well as depression. 

One day I just said to myself, "YOU are one of the role model for your children! What are you modeling?" That day, I made the decision to be as positive and upbeat as I possibly can be. I get up every morning now, and I do things. I no longer have a job outside of the home, but I keep busy with the house and my love for cooking. I had to make a conscious decision to turn things around and to be involved in my kid's lives every day.
