Maybe I am the storm.
Why do I even ask "I wonder why it hurts?" The answer is that I have multiple pain inducing chronic illnesses- duh!!!
I had a great day though, emotionally! I am finding myself because of my health and I don't mean the person I was "pre-diagnosis," I mean a new me, the me that only this pain would give me the freedom to be. Freedom in the walls of this chronic prison. Ironic right?
BUT-- I really wish it didn't hurt so bad...
