I was talking to Sean a couple days ago and I told him that I am reminded of the movie, Love and Other Drugs. I know that I’ve written about that movie extensively because I really like it!
I want to watch it again but my Mom is living here with me now and I’m sure she’s not going to enjoy that at all! The reason I was referencing that to Sean is because there is a scene where she needs pain medication and she is trying to open her pill bottle. She is having a very difficult time!!!
I told him that I feel exactly like that every single morning as I am trying to open and close my nutrition shake. It’s about halfway through the shake that my hands become a little more normalized. And then I begin to squeeze my therapy putty.
