Note to reader: The following post is just me venting. I am NOT trying to make anyone feel sorry for me. My pain level with CP(cerebral palsy) is probably different than someone else’s with the same disability.

Dear reader I just posted on my FB that my CP(cerebral palsy) is bugging me so I might not answer my phone.

My friend Janet responded and said “I am in a lot of pain myself right now but I know my pain can’t compare to yours, feel better soon.”

I hate when people act or think that just because I am hurting means that they can’t hurt too, my ex hubby used to say that he felt bad about saying his legs were hurting after a run because I can’t walk, and it really became a big issue for him even after I said I understood and it honestly didn’t bother me.

I think personally think that pain is pain dear reader and there isn’t really any point in saying/acting like:

My pain is worse than yours. It’s still pain It still hurts.
