I feel good

I feel pretty good today.

I got the results of my MRI yesterday and everything was clean, but that's not why I feel good. What made me feel good was Dani's reaction to the news. I could tell that she was really relieved, that she cared. I had no idea just how stressed she was. The hug she gave me was wonderful. She reminded me that I do matter to other people, that I am loved and appreciated. I have been carrying around these feelings of worthlessness for so I long that I just assumed that was how others saw me. I thought I would be able to fade away without anyone noticing. I was wrong.
