I’m Scared (repost from my amazing cousin’s blog)

I would like to introduce you all to my amazing younger cousin. She is my hero.
This is my life. It’s all that I know. Friends have said they think I’m so brave for just living my life, when I’m just living my life the best I can… just as they are.
The truth is I’m scared.
When I initially decided to start a blog, I intended to make it humorous by discussing the more amusing aspects of my life than the dark ones, but sometimes all I see is darkness. I can’t take a single step without being scared that I will tumble and smash my teeth into the floor. I sometimes feel like I’m spiraling downhill with no end in sight.
I have FSH Muscular Dystrophy, and I’m just scared.
“Courage is being scared to death, but saddling up anyway.”
– John Wayne
