I’ve heard the wrong shoe thing! You honestly just have to laugh!

When people come out with these little gems of wisdom I look them straight in the eye and imagine how much they would be squealing if they experienced just one day of RA pain.

We aren’t weaker because of our chronic illness in fact in so many ways we are tougher, braver and more adept at coping than most.

All the best Kitty. I enjoyed reading your blog.

great blog, my hubby read it too, and he said he could add to it, like- try your hardest to come down to see us, try your hardest to go to the party, or dinner or? its not a case of trying, if you can't you can't.

also my oldest son wanted us to meet him at a wiggles farm to see him and wife and kids, I was in pain but on top it was freezing cold, this is a very cold place to go

we suggested somewhere else warmer, but he wouldn't have it, saying you need to get a warmer coat, my coat is very warm, but if I get too cold my body freezes up my joints and its hard to move and that's on a good day.

none gets it, and then if they see you really ill on your worst days, they say you look really ill, you need to get checked out, find out what is wrong doooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

Great blog, well done. My poor mum keeps on telling me about new concoctions to drink/rub on. She still doesn't understand I have a chronic illness that won't go away and the best I can hope for is to control it/put it into remission, and I've had RD for more than 25 years

Not what you're looking for?
