Title: EXCELLENT ARTICLE!!

My daughter sent me this link to an excellent article about the challenges of living with a "hidden" chronic illness.

I'm planning on sending this to other family members & some friends. My family has been very supportive and understanding, fortunately, but I think this will help give them even a better understanding.

Having a flare up with my eyes this week, so can't look at the computer for long!

Hope this helps some of you!  :)
Blessings,
Joy

You're welcome, gold55, glad you found it helpful.

I love, love, love your quote about dogs. I am a dog lover, too.
They do teach us what love is all about, don't they?  :)

So glad you found it helpful!
So many of you have helped me immeasurably, I'm happy to be able to give back some.  :)

I haven't been on in a while because I've been doing pretty well, thanks to all of the good advice & encouragement from folks on this board.
However, doing well means I'm extremely busy in my job & have to save all of my energy for my family & job. That's about all I can do! I know that all of you understand that all to well.

Thank you, thank you to all of you who put so much into making this forum such a wonderful place!!

Blessings,
Joy
