Do you know reader how many times I have ended up here on the floor, trapped in my body?
Do you know how desperately I try to keep going?
There are some nights I don't have the strength.
I want to talk, but this is all I know how to do. This, and pushing people away.
I wanted to drive far away today. To find where the road ends. But I've already tried that.
Did you know it just goes on and on and on?
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."
