When the Weather Changes, My Health Changes

For many years, the fall of the year is very hard on my health. When the weather changes, my health starts to fail. I try very hard to ignore the calendar. I try to fool myself into believing summer is still here. But as the strong solar rays from the sun grow weaker and weaker, my health slips away.

I have made drastic lifestyle changes, which has helped get me farther along into the fall, but there seems to be a magic day in which my health changes just like the months on the calendar.


Yesterday, we had gloomy weather. I did not think anything of it. My energy was low. I pushed through the day. Today I woke up in a groggy haze. My body is as cold as a popsicle. I layered on thick winter clothing, but my hands, feet and nose are ice cold. Ah, yes. My health is changing just like the seasons.

I look to the calendar and assure myself there are only four months I need to push through—November, December, January and February—before the sun’s rays grow stronger, and the weather turns to spring.
