What does it mean to not have a future to look forward to?

How do I reconcile this moment to moment?

What does this mean for those closest to us?

Having been sick for close to half of our relationship, my heart breaks for the life my wife doesn't get to live.

How lucky I am to have someone to bear this chronic life with me, and yet, it's hard to not feel like I'm tanking her future.

How do you reconcile these losses with your loved ones?

I'm Annette Leonard, speaker, coach, and sick person who believes that my illnesses do not define me. If health is the absence of disease and wellness is the presence of wholeness, then no matter what your disease status, we can work toward your wellness, your wholeness.

Whether or not you are ever "healthy" on paper, you can be well. Join me and others on the path back to wholeness at AnnetteLeonard.com. Whether you are a person experiencing chronic illness or are someone who loves or serves people with chronic illness I have great resources here on this channel or on my website for you.
