When you make a conscious choice to be happy, no one can take it away from you because no one gave it to you: you gave it to yourself.

Friday Smiles 146 - a bad week but family smiles.

Good morning lovelies. I'm here to join in with Annie and her Friday Smiles I confess I've not had much to smile about this week as I've had a bad week with my conditions. I've not put it on social media cos I don't want my boy to see it and worry. He doesn't read my blog so we're safe here!

My conditions are Scoliosis, Fibromyalgia and the main condition is Ehlers-Danlos Hypermobility. I get facial pain attacks - think of a sinus infection & a migraine together in your face not your head with sickness too. That gives you an idea. None of my pain meds help even taking maximum dosages and I'm on some strong stuff! 

Anyway I've been resting all week and haven't left the house since Saturday. Thankfully my parents, my brother and sister in law live close by so they've been checking on me and bringing me supplies. I'm feeling much better today thankfully!

This is what makes me smile. My family.

So here's some pics of them.

 Here's Danny, Dad and Keagan. Taken before the wedding.

My family make me smile! 
Take care Zo xx

Oh boy, that sounds awful! No wonder you don't want Keagan to know. How is he by the way? No news is good news I suppose.
Love The photos of your loved ones all in 'posh clobber'looking great.
Keep smiling. Sending you healing prayers and virtual hugs (they don't hurt so I can hug you really good!)
Have a better week,
Lisca

Oh Zo I'm so sorry to hear about your week. Having had migraine and sinus infections I can only imagine how absolutely awful the pain must have been for you. Sending you Big Hugs. It's good to hear that you have been having support through the week. I do hope you are soon feeling better.

What a lovely family you have. The photos are lovely.
A Warning - don't visit my post today. It's a photo of a spider which you might not like. Barbxx

Wedding photos can be relied on to bring a smile. I am so sorry that you have not had a lot else to smile about this week. Your condition sounds horrid. I am glad you have some family nearby to give their support. I hope you see some improvement this week. Love, Kate x
