We all want control.

How does chronic illness impact that?

Loss of control is a hallmark of chronic illness.

What does my hair have to do with chronic illness and control?

When there is so little that I can control, when I am overwhelmed by so many things happening in my life and in the world around me. However, today: I have a clean junk drawer, and my hair is dyed.

In the midst of these bodies that allow us so little control.

Find something that makes you feel like you, or brings you joy and DO THAT.
