was it worth it?
I go back and forth on this issue quite a bit.
The answer is yes and no.
I feel more connected with my family, I feel more connected with god and my purpose.
I feel more healthy and feel encouraged by others stories who feel it truly IS worth it.
In the same note... I feel very guitly and selfish that I put everyone through this and that god took other good people instead of me. I also feel scared and get angry that I am still weak and jealous that others had it so easy and are not missing any time (I was in a coma for 5 weeks) I will never get that time back. I also sometimes feel stupid that I didn't see the signs that maybe I shouldn't have done it. (Read my profile it is kind of weird)
However, I feel blessed I am alive and here to say these things. Even, though I feel guilt I do feel healthier being thinner. I also have found that even though I lost that time and it was so hard, that sometimes really beautiful things can happen when you have no control. (Probably the hardest lesson I have had to learn)
I think the moral of the story here, is that I would rather "FEEL" that not. To me it not just about being thin (it really never was) it is about being healthy. I have to believe that it WAS worth it!
