Hello and welcome to all, thank you for taking some time to visit my blog. I hope it’s proven useful to you in one way or another so far.
In this week’s edition: How you can show support to fund Lupus research and/or help a fellow spoonie out. Insight into living with chronic illness, and experience exchanges on medications and flares. The relativity and ridiculousness of comparing pain. Some encouragement for the down and defeated, and an inspiring 86 year old iron athlete nun!
Happy reading and a good week to all! 🙂
