Yesterday was a difficult, draining day. Started bad when I attempted to go to doc's by myself (without hubby) and ended up miles from my destination and lost. It just underscored my cognitive deterioration, and I pulled into a parking lot and just sobbed. I've certainly been a bit lost on the road before, but always when going somewhere unfamiliar. This time I got confused regarding a place I go to 2-3x week! Not cool. Granted my husband usually drives, cuz this place is an hour from home and he knows how physically draining it is for me to drive that far on my own. Failing at such a basic, simple thing felt like I'd been punched in the gut. Sure, fibro pain is dreadful and the fatigue is constant, but the loss of brainpower is downright scary, isn't it? I felt so alone and vulnerable. Tho I know Jesus was with me, I could not sense His presence at all at that moment, despite crying out in prayer. Long story short, by the time I returned home, I just wanted to clock out. So I took a couple OTC sleeping pills and dove under the covers for the remainder of the day. They didn't work, so I took 2 more, and finally drifted off into a fitful sleep. Didn't eat or get out of bed til John got home. Wow! Bad experience.

You poor dear! I'm sure I would have got under the covers too!!! You know, it's so often that when we feel God the least is when He is the closest...if that makes any sense. But it's true. I have been in the wilderness and when I am there is when I see something He wants me to see and it blesses me in spite of pain. Love and hugs!!!

I'm so sorry to hear you had such a bad experience. Do know I've been there and done that. Walmart is where I left going alone because my daughter didn't come when I thought she should. Guess what? I actually got lost in Walmart and thanks be to God one of my children's friends was shopping and while being escorted to the Security Office to figure out who I was and where I should be the young lady saw me, called my daughter and stayed with me until my daughter arrived. That was some scary stuff! Of course my car keys have been taken away and they will not leave me home alone anymore. I feel like a kid! Hugs, love from Michigan.

Oh, I'm so sorry! This sounds like me when I am driving...only mine is from my anxiety and bipolar and because I am TERRIBLE AT DIRECTIONS! It is very scary and frustrating to get lost which only makes things worse.
I'm glad you got home okay.
