I let this become me for a while. I let my disease define me.
But that’s not who I am!
Living with chronic illness makes every day a little harder, but it also makes every day a little sweeter. Though I don’t know what my future holds, I’m overwhelmed with a gratitude I didn’t have before my diagnosis — some days I marvel at just being alive.
The challenge is steep, but my mission is to grow into this challenge, create meaning, and be the best person I can be.
