a little more awareness....

a friend just told me it's National Invisible Illnesses Awareness Week.

ha! who knew?!

i have heard over and over how hard it is to have an illness that no one can see.

how isolating that feels.

this friend who told me about the week, also sent an article written to help

people understand what to say to a person dealing with this kinda thing.

thought it was totally worth sharing and wanted to post it here.

check it out if you have time!

it was hers

“they took. they invaded. they pushed. they violated. in so many different ways. a lifetime of pushes and takings and making her feel less than valuable. sitting back, she began to see it. how it had gone on and on. and in seeing it, she began to realize - it was up to her now to shout, to whisper, to sing, to move and to believe in her value. no more taking that from her. it was hers. no more giving it away. it was hers. proudly, with strength and with knowing, she held it. she lived it. she became it.”
