Beskrivelse
There's something fascinating about authenticity wrapped up in a neat bow. Except it's not pretty, and it's not neat. It's rather disturbing, messy and painfully triggered by an awareness of truth. Chronicles of the Chronically Ill is a powerful, raw tale of seven women's grueling and emotional journey of chronic illness, misdiagnosis, addiction, medication overload, high medical bills, and the battle of recovery.
How do one escape the tragic of a grim diagnosis sure to change your life forever? The comfort of "knowing" finally what is wrong, and that it's not all in your head is overshadowed by the reaction of society who is convinced that you "look fine."
Is what's invisible to the naked eye REAL? Does it truly exist? Can the unseen control things that are seen? Chronicles of the Chronically Ill is an account of the unseen that takes a grueling toll on the seen and sets off a chain reaction of even more diagnoses, both physical and mental.
Brain fog, severe exhaustion, migraines, overactive nerves, sleep disorders, blurred vision, memory impairment, anxiety, depression and other mental illness conditions are just the tip of the iceberg of what these women are challenged with on a day-to-day basis. Not to mention the demands of family and career. But to the naked eye, they don't "look" sick They don't "act" helpless. They don't "seem" impaired or disabled.
A story of pain, survival, transformation and healing, Chronicles of the Chronically Ill candidly reveals the colossal impact of chronic illness on seven women's lives; and inspiring lessons on the importance of having courage and hope, even in those moments when you think you can't go on.
