NOT MY ARTICLE-HOWEVER-REALLY LIKED THIS ONE-PLEASE CLICK LINK TO READ




Thus far, I have written everything myself on my blog. However, I came upon this article entitled: "Five Simple Words to Keep Chronic Illness at Bay" written by Madeleine Parish, and liked it so much that I would love the readers of my blog to see it. I also loved the graphic above, those with chronic illness will recognize some if not all of the insensitive things people say to those with a chronic illness.

Be back soon,

Great article! I love the sign too. I will show it to my relatives who have used every last one of these comments to "console" me. Thanks for posting!

Hello there: mom2wildthings &Jasmine:

How sad but true huh? I believe all of us with chronic illness/pain etc. have heard all of these insensitive comments from people that don't have a clue...

Thanks to you both for the comments-much appreciated!

You make a lot of great points. I wish that companies could come up with better pain relief for patients. I also though deeply concerned about over doses do not feel we need to get rid of drugs.I think education is a better route in the long run.
