There’s a part of me that feels like it’s self-indulgent to say I have a chronic autoimmune disease since that sounds so serious and dramatic.
But there’s another part of me that recognizes that it’s rather ridiculous to feel this way because it happens to be true.
As I mentioned in my last post, we recently moved our kids back to college. For my husband and I, this was a given.
