Join us this week as Anna spends too long trying to explain the exact dimensions of her favorite Australian dessert before Kim finally cuts her off with a first hand account of a recent trauma flashback.

Join us this week as we get real with one of the lesser known side effects of having a chronic illness: guilt. How would you respond if your chronically ill loved one came to you in tears for the hundredth time because she feels unbearably guilty for all the pain and sorrow her illness has caused YOU? Maybe she can handle her own pain, but causing you heartache is just too much for her to bear. How do you move on from that? How do you support her in her illness while not adding to her guilt and grief? How do you make her know that it isn’t her fault? Is that even possible? Come along with us this week to find out. Hint: this is a sad episode that we mask with lots of coping-mechanism-type jokes.
