I haven't updated in a month, so I've been receiving a lot of emails asking when I'm coming back. To be honest? I need a break. My life has been so public that I need time again for myself. Classes start in a week and my surgery is in 3 months, so I will be quite busy. I'll update occasionally, and certainly once I finish the book that's currently consuming me, which deals with chronic pain. I will try to respond to emails as timely as possible, but bear with me as I take a step back.
The Winds of Fate
by Ella Wilcox
One ship drives east and another drives west
With the self-same winds that blow;
'Tis the set of the sails
And not the gales
That tells them the way to go.
Like the winds of the sea are the winds of fate
As we voyage along through life;
'Tis the set of the soul
That decides the goal
And not the calm or the strife.
I was a chronic pelvic pain patient who wrote about my health struggles for 7 years. After successful treatment and returning to school, I am about to become a women's health physical therapist. Some estimate 5% of women as well as millions of men will experience pelvic pain in their lifetime, yet they are under-researched, misdiagnosed, and misunderstood. In the midst of rapidly evolving medical discoveries and technology, priority needs to be given to pelvic pain.

of their freedom.
How do they learn it?
They fall, and falling,
they are given wings."
