What People With IBD and Chronic Illness Wish You Knew 💜
Sometimes it’s not that we don’t want to make plans, or that we’re unreliable.
It’s that our bodies can change minute by minute.
One minute we’re feeling okay and looking forward to something. The next, we could be dealing with excruciating pain, overwhelming fatigue, or symptoms that make leaving the house impossible.
We can’t always predict when a flare or bad day will happen — and that can make making and keeping plans incredibly difficult.
Please remember, we’re not cancelling because we don’t care. Sometimes our bodies simply don’t give us a choice. 💜
Thank you, LeAnna, for sharing this important reminder with us. 💜
