A Ghost 👻, Three Animals and Five Chronic Illnesses walked into a bar !! 🤣🤣

Headline: Why a Ghost, Three Animals, and Five Chronic Illnesses are My New "C-Suite" Executives
 
I’ve spent a lot of time "at the office," but lately, my office looks a bit different. While I’ve had to step away from the traditional workplace due to Pituitary brain tumors, Lymphedema, Lipedema, and a handful of other uninvited medical guests, I haven't stopped working.
 
I’ve just pivoted to a new industry: The Business of Resilience.
 
I am moving my blog, "Laugh with Abby," to Facebook, and I want to invite my professional network to see what happens when you apply high-level motivation to a "hysterically funny" real-life crisis.
 
Here are 3 reasons why "Laugh with Abby" is your new favorite follow:
 
1. Extreme Resource Management: I manage a household consisting of myself, a circus of animals, and "Margaret"—a fun, resident old lady ghost who refuses to sign a non-disclosure agreement. If I can navigate her antics while managing PCOS and Hypothyroidism, I can navigate anything.
​
2. The Art of the Pivot: Living with acute illness isn't about the struggle; it’s about the strategy. I share how to maintain an upbeat, intelligent, and articulate outlook even when your body tries to "file for bankruptcy."
​
3. The ROI of Joy: Positivity is a currency. I’ve found that being "hysterically funny" about brain tumors and chronic pain is the most effective way to motivate myself—and hopefully, a few thousand other people—to keep showing up.
 
I may not be in the boardroom, but I am leading a movement focused on grit, humor, and the raw reality of living a big life in a complicated body.

THE THYROID STORM

Image
There are some things a lot of people don’t realise about  autoimmune thyroid disease. OK, we are not coughing, being sick or have diarrhoea. But we  are  unwell and  need to be at home.  The Pain  A classic hypothyroid symptom is aches and pains throughout the body. For me, this pain starts in my head n works downwards, like a flowing river, filled with piranha fish tightly crammed and fighting to escape... biting and jostling to win air and fight to reach the safe sanctuary of open sea. Imagine when you’ve had the flu, and the aches and pains. The pain is so bad that I find it hard to distract myself from it and often find myself crying without even knowing. It has kept me awake at night and tends to sort itself out with medication . The trouble with that, is that I’m often too fatigued to get myself to the kitchen to get aforementioned meds, so I have to wait until someone  is about to help me. Usually, I have to wait until my childr...

DIET TALK : STOP IT NOW !

Image
Its nearly Christmas and people have already started.... " ohhhhhh ill be putting on weight at Christmas 🎄  .. always do, all that lovely food everywhere " ....  “Please don’t talk about diets (or carb counting, or food policing).” “Please, Can we talk about something else?” “I’m so sorry you feel that way about yourself.” ( I'd like to add in here " that's not how I see you " ) “I want to spend my time with you discussing more important things.” ( more important  .. meaning 'fun' ! ) “This topic is hard for a lot of people, so I try not to talk about it.” “I don’t really want to hear everything you’re doing to avoid looking like me.” ( once again i'd add in " I think im lovely " )  “This isn’t an appropriate topic for the workplace.” (Or for dinnertime, or Christmas, or…) “Food is such a joy! What’s your favorite thing to eat?” (When others express guilt around eating “bad” foods.) “I’ve had problems with food in the past, I don’t rea...

 OHHHHHH Hold your horses Gladys, she's blogging AGAIN....  Moon Light shining in through the black out curtains as I blink and suck on a humbug - wide awake, yawning and soooo in need of sleep, but once I have a bee in my bonnet ( which is a ridiculous thought as I'd not be caught anywhere near a bonnet - let alone a bee ) I just can't let it go ... OOOOOooooOOMPH - OHHHHHHHHHH GARY !  The Black & White, cat that us Gary - AKA -  Gary Cat, jumped from the wardrobe right onto my tummy, causing a massive ripple effect and exhale of air, he's then immediately upon my chest for a cuddle, omg, cats - you just can't say no !!  He ( Aka aforementioned Gary Cat ) knows - he just knows !He's such a clever boy, and 'just a baby' ( he's actually 7 years old but the youngest of my two cats. ) He'll come plonk himself down and gently purr, he puts himself right near my lips so I can plant little kisses on his neck, thing is, I do this and he 'pads...
