My chronic illness and Last Reviews for the JouwBox edition 10

I am a huge cat lover….. They are so darn cuddly and cute….. It’s actually very hard for me, I cannot keep one at the moment….. Well, it’s a long story actually….. We moved 4 years ago to an apartment due to my chronic illness….. My cartilage is of very poor quality….. As a result, it is breaking down bit by bit all over my body 😟

Momentarily, I already have a hip and knee prosthesis on my right side….. But my left knee is giving me more and more problems every day now too….. Wish I could say that this was my only problem….. The disks in my back spine are slowly degenerating too….. And those of my neck were more than happy to join in on the fun 😜

Ooh no, I still haven’t finished….. My shoulders are becoming more blocked and more painful….. Probably a result of walking on crutches a lot in the last few years….. And then there are my wrists and thumbs pains….. Mostly because of some abnormal bone depositions….. I have those in different places all over my body….. I suppose they also wanted to join in on the fun 😜

Can you imagine that some people envy me….. Just because I am not working anymore 😲

What they don’t see is how many painkillers I have to take in daily…… They get me through an average day….. But there are limits to what my body can do….. And if I cross those limits, I will have to pay for it….. The result is that I have to cope with 2 or 3 days of severe pain….. Sometimes I even can’t straighten my back anymore….. And then I haven’t told you about my muscles yet….. They are fed-up with it and overreact….. Resulting in blockages 😢

You may call me crazy, but I really don’t get what they are jealous of 😵

Great….. Feels good getting that off my chest

Let’s get back to more fun things….. Like reviewing….. I think it’s fun 😁

There were still 2 things in my Jouwbox left that I haven’t told you about….. If you did not see the previous ones….. Here is a link to them

The first one still on my list is the Mudmasky Leave-me-on Autumn mask….. What does their website say about this mask….. It’s a gel-based and oil-free ultra calming formula….. It rebalances and re-hydrates your skin after a hot summer…..The mask reduces sunspots to a minimum after using daily after 2 till 3 weeks….. Without the use of popular bleaching chemicals like hydroquinone….. Fragrance-free.

Sounds pretty cool….. Don’t you agree 😉

As the name already suggests you can just put it on and leave it….. Still, I really have to read it twice to believe….. As the French say ‘Simple come Bonjour’ (translated as simple as saying hello)….. No hassle with rinsing it off afterward….. As I was rubbing it in it became rather sticky for a few seconds but that feeling disappeared….. And now my skin is almost as soft as a baby skin….. Did you know that your skin loses a lot of moisture in the summertime….. Especially in a hot summer like we had this year….. It may seem pretty expensive, but you don’t need much….. So the tube will last for a long time…..To me, this mask is the perfect solution….. As Maira Kalman said ‘I truly believe there’s always a solution to every problem 😎
