Pain. On of the many symptoms of #CIDP, and one that isn’t talked about. I am one of the fortunate ones who does not spend every moment of every day in pain, but there are still many things I cannot do without pain. I dread simple tasks like getting dressed, or getting in and out of bed. Still, I try to choose joy each day, and remember all the things I am able to do. I am blessed in this suffering; there is beauty that comes from it, goodness that comes from knowing that God sees me and has asked me to be a light in the dark. I pray every day that sharing my story helps just one person. This crazy life is a gift. “Consider it nothing but joy” #choosejoy #CIDP #chronicillness #awareness #spoonie
