Totes Emosh

Yesterday was a pretty big day for me. I shared this page with all the people I know and in a way I came out of the illness closet! Of course my close friends and family know about my condition but I have kept it from a wider audience because I used to feel embarrassed, ashamed and I just didn't know how to explain it.. I don't feel that way anymore. Sharing my experience with everyone has been amazing. I have been overwhelmed by the response. I have had so many lovely messages of support and encouragement. It has been Totes emosh! For the first time in my life I feel liberated talking about these conditions and I didn't realise that sometimes I need those words of encouragement.

Don't hide in the illness closet.....come out! It's nice out.
