Happy Thanksgiving 2023

Happy Turkey Day!

For those of us who live in the United States, it is Thanksgiving Day. Hope you and your family have a happy and safe Thanksgiving holiday!

I know that the holidays can be a difficult for people who are dealing with a chronic disease. Holidays are a great time to spend time with family and friends and to eat delicious food; however, challenges like traveling, preparing food, lack of sleep, added tasks, etc. are also present. Remember, it’s important to prioritize your well-being and listen to your body. By taking these steps, you can make the most of the holiday season while managing your chronic illness.

Have a great time, but take care of yourself. I pulled some quotes about dealing with chronic illneses and hopefully you can possibly connect with some. Happy Thanksgiving!


QUOTES ABOUT CHRONIC ILLNESS

“I fight for my health every day in ways that most people don’t understand. I’m not lazy. I’m a warrior!” — Unknown

You’re Eating What!?

 “Sometimes you will be in control of your illness and other times you’ll sink into despair, and that’s OK! Freak out, forgive yourself, and try again tomorrow.” — Kelly Hemingway

“The strongest people I’ve met have not been given an easier life. They’ve learned to create strength and happiness from dark places.” —Kristen Butler

“Behind every chronic illness is just a person trying to find their way in the world. We want to find love and be loved and be happy just like you. We want to be successful and do something that matters. We’re just dealing with unwanted limitations in our hero’s journey.” — Glenn Schweitzer
