    It rings hollow for folks with chronic illnesses, too. It’s simply easier to do these things when you’re starting from a baseline of health.

      I have a severe chronic illness that has destroyed my ability to do just about anything and causes immense pain. I still try to live for my loved ones and do what I can within my limited power to improve my circumstances. This post is not an attack on people like me.

      I have Crohn’s and shit my pants all day at work. I still wipe my ass and go for a run when I clock out because it’s keeping me healthier than I would be otherwise.
