The other day I got a package, a big package, which I found sitting at my front door. Normally, I am so excited when I see gifts of any kind at the front door, but not so much this time. I brought it inside the house, gently placed the enormous package on the kitchen table, and began to open its contents. Inside this little red and white box was a little treat relating to my newest Crohn’s treatment, #Humira!
And that friends, is the end of the story! I literally froze in place just looking at the box like I have seen the face of God. Part of me was so excited and the other half was horrified. I couldn’t move, didn’t want to reach out and grab or even touch the box, so I sat down. I sat for a good 30 minutes just starring at the “Devil” in the box. And that’s where this story ends!
Once I gained some control, the box was put into the refrigerator as suggested by the makers of Humira. And literally, the Humira pens have remained in the fridge where I glare at them daily. Too horrified and angry to take the next step! Has it really come down to this, injecting myself with God only knows what and for the rest of my life? I don’t know, not sure that I can do this. Stay tuned…..
