Being diagnosed was tough

Being unknown was worse.

From here it can only get better,

with the right tools and a little good luck.

Optimism will be my guide.

This will be with me

forever

No way around it.

Optimism will be my guide.

Scared? Yes.

A little.

Curious? Most definitely.

I have a strong support system:

my family, friends.

Together we'll get through this.

with Optimism as our guide.
