Until you do it, you assume that being helped will make you feel like you are…less. And then, when you start getting good support, you realize that getting help takes one hell of a good mindset, and it connects you more deeply to the people in your life.

I’m glad to see you’ve overcome your old thinking!

My attitude is that it will not stop me from enjoying life. Today and for the past several weeks, I also am in a flare up and unable to cut my food. For me asking for help would mean defeat. So, instead I eat what I can manage to serve myself, use my power chair so I don’t have to ask for help, shower with liquid soap because I can’t hold a bar of soap..and on & on…

I sew and am deep into swapping items I make in blog land. I have found ways to continue to use my sewing machine with a control on the table instead of on the floor…Attitude, it’s all about attitude. Good Luck
