RE: Are you still hopeful?

Hmmmm....alot Init. Chronic anything, whether it’s pain, illness, or emotional trauma, wears down the soul in a way that’s hard to put into words… but you did it so beautifully. But I feel like Chronic doesn’t just describe the condition.... it describes the weight it adds to everyday life, to your thoughts, your outlook, your everything.

Faith vs. hope

There’s something deeply powerful in choosing faith.... not the blind kind, but the steady, hard won faith that’s built through surviving what should have broken you. That kind of faith doesn’t ignore the pain, it carries it with intention. Thank you for putting your experience into words like this. I know this wasn’t easy to write, but I promise you, it matters. You’re not alone in this long, quiet battle. And even in the stillness, your voice has strength. 💛
