Hello! It’s hard to believe another month has gone by. You may have noticed that I am fairly quiet on social media these days, because life has been both humbling and exhausting. I’m holding up as best I can, like we all are, and I am back to share some overflow reads and brief updates.

I've long been trying to figure out how to juggle the many categories of responsibility I have on my shoulders, and how to keep my business alive and volunteer my time for my condition, while also managing a spinal CSF leak. This year, family matters became an urgent priority, and the challenge of managing the tasks at hand have bested me. I say this each month lately, but I so appreciate your support at a time I am not publishing as much as I'd like and want to.

Pressure is privilege, the saying goes. And of course I know this, but at the same time the people who came up with that saying probably didn't have a few holes in their dura leaking cerebrospinal fluid out, you know?...
