Who needs therapy when my fur babies exist? 🥺 #furbabies #dogmama #emotionalsupportpets

When an illness is invisible, people don’t see it, so they don’t get it. When it drags on for years, it becomes “normal” to others, and they don't notice the real, lasting impact it has on your life. #chronicillness #invisibleillness #chronicmeansconstant

Not all disabilities come from chronic illness but most chronic illnesses cause disability. Being disabled does not mean unabled and being functional is not the same as able bodied. #chronicillness #disability #ableism

Grief, I’ve learned, doesn’t only belong to death. It belongs to transformation too. The involuntary kind, the kind that remakes you without your permission. #disenfranchisedgrief #chronicillness

Living with chronic illness can feel like this: I am scared that this version of me is permanent and I don't know how to love someone who is always in pain. #chronicillness #disability #grief

Coming back to writing after years away feels like finding my way home. I’m writing honestly about life, disability, and the truths we don’t often say out loud—one piece at a time. #writer #lifeessays #disability
