By this point, I’m not sure how much more I can take with my health complications. I was very recently diagnosed with an underactive thyroid (hypothyroidism) and well, it explains a lot. What is Hypothyroidism exactly? “Hypothyroidism is the name given to the condition resulting from an underactive thyroid gland. This means that the thyroid is not producing enough thyroid…
I try to raise awareness about Endometriosis every March, and apologies that I’m a little (ok, a lot) late this year. Truthfully, it doesn’t matter which month you raise awareness for a chronic illness. I’ve shared a portion through-out the past eight or so years, so I feel I’m some-what doing my bit.

I had been told I have stage 4 endometriosis and would need assisted help to have kids. Fast forward to now, there’s a lot more information on Endometriosis, there wasn’t back in 2015. And turns…
Hi everyone! I know it’s Christmas Eve and I’m discussing a serious topic, however, I some-what felt inspired to type this, this morning.
