This month's focus:
Hope
H.O.P.E.Hold On Pain Ends
Hang On, Peace Exists Helping Other People Endure Helping Other People Exist Helping Others Pain End Hope has many different meanings for a lot of us. For some, it is their will for strength. And for others, it is their air to keep breathing. But then for some, it is just a mythical word. And empty statement that lost its meaning along the way. Here are Rising Phoenix CRPS, we know everyday comes with a new challenge. And that sometimes, we need support to be reminded of that...Every breath of air comes with a possibility of hope. |
supporting those with CRPSWhile the ways to help support a CRPS Warrior are honestly endless, we realize that sometimes, pointing out some of those options from time to time
can also be helpful. Rising Phoenix CRPS has set aside a few links in hopes of helping spread the thought to others. Some CRPS patients, will never ask for support. That's not a flaw or defect in character. That's just how they are. It doesn't mean, they still don't appreciate the support. Together we are Stronger! |
hope for caregiversBeing a caretaker of someone living in chronic pain, is emotionally and physically taxing. As much as the patient is a concern, so should the wellbeing of those taking care of them be.
Rising Phoenix CRPS has found a few helpful links to help with this discussion. Because those who help CRPS Patients, or frankly anyone living in chronic pain, deserves a little SUPPORT TOO! |
Built with support in mind
Rising Phoenix CRPS is not just any nonprofit organization. Yes, we have our very own mission statement. But Rising Phoenix CRPS has so much more than that. Our drive is to spread Awareness, not only of Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS), but also FOR ALL of the courageously beautiful CRPS Warrior's fighting this battle. Rising Phoenix CRPS is proud and prepared to Educate where possible. But Rising Phoenix's top quality, is that the founder, Jennifer Ray and her support, has had plenty of raw-fully honest experiences, and learned some great knowledge along the way through her own journey, that you can't get without going through it firsthand. Support is our FOCUS! Because in the reality, that's ALL WE ARE REALLY LOOKING FOR. All of us, in some way or another!
dealing with current issues
Isolation comes in all shades of colors. Sometimes it is forced upon us, whether our health dictates it or I suppose if our President does. But no matter the reasoning, Isolation is (just plain) hard. Feeling forced to be confined due to uncertainty. The FOMO ( Fear of Missing Out). The endless Thoughts and emotions that seem to come when you are bound to four walls. The honest fear of being forgotten. Possibly an increase in discomfort or pain. Feeling as if your problems, are no longer a "priority" due to everything going on around.
Below are a few links that might help with how to cope with worry, stress, and/or isolation. Which has turned into a real situation across the world. Please know, there is support and help available if you feel like you are unable to handle these issues alone. And there is absolutely NO SHAME in saying "these times are hard" and "maybe I could use more help than I can offer myself."
