Hi Lauren!
It is good to see you back here again. I have been wondering how you have been doing, and then was gone myself from this site for a while.
Your new community and blog are very interesting to read. It is both sad and encouraging to see how many folks are working with chronic illnesses of some sort or another. Sad is obvious, but encouraging because reading about experiencing some of the same difficulties in different contexts can help us all be a little more creative in how we deal with those difficulties in our own small context. I hope that makes sense.
Anyway, it is good to see you again.
