Beautiful essay Rebecca. I can so relate to having to sit out family activities, and learning to say no to social events. I love the balance you're finding.

Thank you for reading, Kristi! And while I'm sorry you've had similar experiences, it's so nice to be able to understand each other.

Yes, for sure. Chronic illness is so often misunderstood. It's hard for people who haven't experienced it to understand.
