Letting Go

Had a great conversation today with my doctor today about the importance/insignificance of why.

I find that I am struggling to live with not knowing the reasons why. Why did I get ECD? Why is my spleen blocked? What caused my immune system to become deficient? What's wrong with my pancreas? 

He says...live with it. 

I however can remember working on old Studebakers with my Dad. Often times we would find ourselves looking for a fix before we were sure what was causing the problem. Once things were narrowed down then we were able to pinpoint the cause of the problem. 

This new pill along with my daily shot seems to have provided me relief from what ails me, but now the question arises. What's causing the problems to manifest themselves is the first place? How can I change my lifestyle to better prepare for a lifetime of living with this disease. Does any of this matter? 

To me it does.
