Better to Be a Bulldog

Sometimes what I hate most about myself is my strength.  I have to do many things that I really do not want to do.  It would be easy to give up and say "I can't do it."  However, I am too strong for that.  Every time I start to give up I realize that I can do it.

Today I had to restart my weekly injections after a month-long break.  Having a needle phobia has made doing these injections difficult.  I had to stop them tempoarily in order to clear up a sinus infection.  The injections supress my overactive immune system.

I am not entirely happy to say that I did my injection despite almost having a panic attack.  At least it is over for another week.  It wasn't even that bad.  There is just something about metal piercing my skin that gives the heebie-jeebies.

Thanks for reading,
