As challenging as it is, nothing in my life has been more fulfilling than being a mother. He has an empathy Iā€™ve never seen in a child so young. Heā€™s beyond social and loves talking on the phone and even pretending to talk on the phone šŸ˜†. And he loves to share everything! Including food, favorite toys, etc! . . #rheumatoidarthritis #arthritis #chronicpain #chronicillness #chronicmom #invisibleillness #ra #jra #ja #juvenilearthritis #autoimmunedisease #spoonie #gastroparesis #vectrascore
Birthday dinner for mom.šŸŽˆ We drove 2 1/2 hours to Ft. Myers to have dinner with my brother and his new fiancĆ©e and the whole time my hip was hating it! Most of the time it baffles people why I canā€™t drive long distances. So let me explain: the ā€œmorning stiffnessā€ + pain you hear associated with RA, for me happens after sitting for only an hour or two. And itā€™s not just in the car. Itā€™s sitting in a classroom for two hours, going to the movie theaters, sitting in a car. Iā€™m the real life tin-woman. . . #rheumatoidarthritis #arthritis #chronicpain #chronicillness #chronicmom #invisibleillness #ra #jra #ja #juvenilearthritis #autoimmunedisease #spoonie #gastroparesis #vectrascore #empowerwithvectra
I often struggle to find the balance between suffering in silence and sharing the inner struggle of life with #chronicillness. . Sometimes I find that my silence has perpetuated the belief in others that Iā€™m feeling well, even when Iā€™m not. But it isnā€™t in me to complain aloud or even dwell on the pain. . So, PSA šŸ—£ to friends and family of those dealing with #chronicillness: ASK before assuming. We might not share it all, but please know weā€™re grateful for the ear. :) #rheumatoidarthritis #arthritis #chronicpain #chronicillness #chronicmom #invisibleillness #ra #jra #ja #juvenilearthritis #autoimmunedisease #spoonie #gastroparesis

Thanks for coming!

Thank you for visiting my blog. I am so happy you are here! I created this blog back in 2011 on tumblr because I felt there was a need for someone to talk about how chronic illness affects not just our bodies, but our souls as well. Always remember, this is a safe space for you to vent, scream, and be yourself. :)
