Saturday, 18 Feb 2017. Issue #45.
In this edition: Be aware of the possibilities out there and adapt. Appreciate the simple (and best!) things in life. We all have our own issues to work on, whether we are ill or well. How it feels when you receive diagnosis after diagnosis. A short poem on what brain fog is like. How certain chronic illnesses come together as a group. The definitive list of what not to say to those with illness. What to do if doctors and family don’t believe you have a medical problem. The artist with skin picking disorder who turns it into public art for awareness. Interpreting chronic illness through lyrics, and how it can also bring out the best in people. Humourous stock photography depicting society’s ideas of ‘disability’. Enjoy!
