I enjoy convalescence. It is the part that makes the illness worth while.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I have to think of the positive; that's how I cope.
We are so fond on one another because our ailments are the same.
You go into the disease as one person and come out of it as a different person. It has changed my perspective on everything. Things that used to upset me no longer do.
Please believe that I do this because I am convinced that my illness cannot be helped for any length of time and I cannot bear to be a burden on anyone any longer.
I think that therapy is great and can be incredibly helpful.
The greatest healing therapy is friendship and love.
I have been dealing with illness and its manifestations since I was a teenager, and I think that gives me a very healthy respect for the things in life we can't control.
Whatever it takes to make an individual feel better, I'm all for it.
I believe it is better to be prepared for illness than to wait for a cure.
My illness is excruciating and difficult to cope with. It takes over your entire life and causes more suffering than I can describe.
