Burden: A Year of Journals from Someone Living with Chronic Illness
Two weeks fresh out of the hospital from a heart scare, dealing with long COVID, pots, a flare-up from my autoimmune disease, and three infected ulcers, while having to move out on my own, is where my memoir starts.
Month by month, I wrote down in real time what it was like to transition from being a normal, active member of society to someone who couldn't leave their house without assistance. All because I got a virus.
Quickly realizing how society, friends, and family started treating me differently, I decided to journal my everyday experiences in my new body, in hopes of giving people a new perspective.
With honest words, light-hearted illustrations, humor, and grit, these journals unearth the secrets of living with chronic illness and how it changes everything.
