Chronic illnesses affect 6 out of 10 adults in the world, according to the CDC. They can range from easily-manageable, to terminal. Some are visible, some aren’t. Many of them involve pain, and other symptoms, that can make life very difficult. My intentions for this page are two-fold..or maybe three-fold? Brain fog is preventing the correct word, and while I could just wait for it to pass, or come back and edit this later- I’d rather just be real. In addition to what you see on this page, I have blog posts about living with chronic illness, so please take a moment to go to the Menu near the top of the page & select Blog Posts to scroll through them. I have all kinds of graphics about chronic illness. I call them Dida-isms, and they, too, can be found in the Menu. I’ve also written for both The Mighty and FibromyalgiaResources. You can find those writings here:
