Hello to my new subscribers – I cannot tell you how much it means to me that you have subscribed! I have subscribed to your sites as well and have started to read (I will be reading more as much as I can this weekend!); I love the diversity of thought that is so prevalent on WordPress. At any rate, I am still on the “hunt” for others with chronic illnesses and chronic illness “sites” and I would love to be pointed in the direction of some (more) if anyone has such a site or such a recommendation! Thanks much to all just for your patience with my rambling and for taking the time to read my post(s)! I wish you all a happy and healthy weekend and a SAFE weekend (my belated prayers go out to Australia and all affected; the massive loss of life breaks my heart….)….
❤ Always, Beth

I have been living with chronic illness since I was 2 months old. My first "formal" chronic illness diagnosis was Behçet's Disease - I was 17 at the time. I was later diagnosed with Common Variable Immune Deficiency (I more or less led the doctors to that diagnosis - that story is for another time!) and those have been my "primary" two illnesses. I have many other "secondary" diagnoses such as seronegative Rheumatoid Arthritis, Chiari 1 Malformation (a result, I believe, of the Behçet's causing aseptic meningitis time and again since it had never appeared in brain scans before I was about 24-25), osteoporosis, compression fractures of the thoracic spine, and many others. I know what it is like to feel as if you have lost years of your life that you can never recover from illness and the many restrictions it places upon you in your everyday life. I just want you to know that I know what it is like and I have been there through every period of my life - you are NOT ALONE! Please do not hesitate to contact me if you ever need someone to talk with or someone just to listen to you - I am always here! Thank you for taking the time to read this and my other posts and I hope you are having a happy and healthy day no matter where you are in the world! Take care.
