I am a newly diagnosed IC paitent. This disease has changed my perspective on life. I am learning to adjust to the physical limitations it brings as well as the mental and emotional ups and downs that accompany any illness. I am becoming more Thankful and grateful for what I am able to do, and have a new appreciation for anyone that suffers with Chronic pain.
Join with me to encourage others with IC, and offer HOPE!
