Of course approaching the one year anniversary of losing someone very important, our thoughts turn to grief. In this episode we discuss grief as it pertains to chronic illness patients and even try to apply it to how the doctor's feel/act.

We've also added a resource to every discription which is the most elaborate checklist of symptoms associated with Ehlers-Danlos. You have to school a bit past some technical jargon but the checklist is there and easy to read.

Giving credit where credit is due: Christine Miserandino revolutionized the chronic illness community by sharing her Spoon Theory with the world on her blog: https://butyoudontlooksick.com Because of her contribution, those suffering with chronic illness are often referred to as "Spoonies" and we often refer to energy stored and expended in units of spoons.

Tis the season! What season? Struggle Bus Season! And it doesn't just pertain to Spoonies but Amberlyn and Ann discuss the reality of the struggle and some ways to manage it. Hint: supportive friends and humor.

Both Amberlyn and Ann have some experience living in areas with severe weather and they've both gone through prepping education. While Amberlyn is much more formal with military training, Ann didn't do too shabby using using resources found at the library.
Now is a great time to be talking to your providers about getting a few extra days worth of medications in case of an emergency. Don't forget to have your shoes handy and ready to go.
And remember that part of prepping is thinking about the worst case scenario. You don't need to plan every detail in the event of a death, but it's a good idea to share basic wishes with your loved ones.
