RSD/CRPS 4 a Cure

I honestly agree with that statement. Sometimes we let our “limits” define our best- in order to beat this disease we have to go-over, above, and beyond our “best”. To this day I struggle comparing what my best used to be and what it is now. There are times when I can’t concentrate on a test or get a dance move because my body burns so badly but it finally got to a point where I was like “well I may never be where I was before—but I am going to work very hard to be as good as I can.” In dance if I can’t get a move, it just fuels my fire to work harder. I will do whatever it takes to beat this. Because when you give everything to overcoming the RSD, you are doing whatever it takes and once you start doing whatever it takes… You are now and only now reaching your best 😉 #rsd #crps #rsdcrps #rsdcrps4acure #quote #quotes #rsdsucks #inspiration #motivation #do #whatever #it #takes #makeitcount

Dont you dare. It’s not worth starting over again. I have learned how to walk why would I want to give tht up because of pain just to have to relearn- um I wouldnt. You have the ability to fight this. Everyday my coach reminds me of tht and pushes me harder everyday. Don’t you DARE ever give up.

When you feel like fighting isn’t worth it or you aren’t seeing results— think about why you started. I’m gonna bet that if you started a while ago or even yesterday you started because you know it is important to beat not because you were bored and made a mindless decision. When I think that I want to give up when I’m on pointe I think about the past 7 months and how hard I have worked and how I have put in so much time, sweat and tears to be where I am today, why would I want to stop? It actually fuels me to work harder because I cant wait to see where I will be in another 7 months and how I know that I will look back and say “man, remember 7 months ago when I was about to give up… I’m glad that I didnt.” #rsd #crps #rsdcrps #rsdcrps4acure #quote #quotes #rsdsucks #inspiration #Just #do #it (Taken with Instagram)

Come alive and GO DO IT. I don’t care of you have RSD… If you really want something then NOTHING can ever stand to strong in your way. You will have to fight but you WILL be able to press on until your goal is met. #rsd #CRPS #rsdcrps #rsdcrps4acure #quote #quotes #rsdsucks #inspiration #GO #DO #IT (Taken with Instagram)

This morning I got a email from my coach. She was telling me how i need to work harder. It kinda upset me but I realized that I kinda am. So this week I’m gonna work harder I’m gonna “slay my dragon” and go for it. I am gonna work harder in my classes today harder on pointe and do everything she asks I basically have to trust her so much to let her do this. But I Want to get Better some I’m gonna push. Harder than I ever have before. I encourage you to as well ( hint hint @jesssicadaniellle) ;) #rsd #CRPS #rsdcrps #rsdcrps4acure #quote #quotes #rsdsucks #fight #just #do #if (Taken with instagram)

I know RSD hurts. Not just to those who have it but those around you. Who love you and care about you but if you don’t want to fight this disease do it for them. Do it for the little brother you can’t cuddle with anymore. Do it for the sister who desperately prays for you to get better. Do it for your mom who is being torn apart watching you struggle. Do it for your dad who want so badly to be your hero but can’t be this time. Do it for your friends who have encouraged you through this whole thing. Whenever I want to give up this is what goes through my mind. As I sit here and type it brings tears to my eyes because this is real. So do it for them if you can do it for yourself. #rsd #crps #rsdcrps #rsdcrps4acure #quote #quotes #rsdsucks #do #it #for #them (Taken with instagram)

There have been many times this year in going through this disease a 2nd time where I have been that girl. Many breakdowns and many roadblocks along this journey but I won’t give up and please remember.. I believe that there is a time where everyone is going to be that girl but dont stay that girl forever— she’s not weak she just worn out and may just need a small break to regain strength but that doesn’t take forever… #rsd #crps #rsdcrps #rsdcrps4acure #rsdsucks #unbreakable #strong #girl #can’t #do #this #anymore (Taken with instagram)

Keep moving forward can be so hard. My dance teacher and I have created a new therapy for RSD and we call it normal life and it is really hard and there r days when I don’t want to work and days when I dint want to get up but I have to keep moving forward because I know that Ivan beat this disease even if the medical world is telling me it’s not possible but guess what—- they said I would not be able to go in pointe and in 4 weeks I’m performing on pointe when a few months ago it was “impossible”—- I’m gonna beat this and I’m gonna defeat the odds and stay in school work hard and still dance and live life. I know it’s hard but remember I am always here for support and keep moving forward with life (even if you don’t have RSD) #rsd #crps #rsdcrps #rsdcrps4acure #quote #quotes #painful #keep #moving #forward #YOU #CAN #DO #IT!!!
