I talked with a parent yesterday whose son also manages chronic health challenges. I asked, "Does mental and emotional demands and stress make him physically tired?" And it wasn't until I said it that I felt the connection myself. What a big challenge, not only to be physically rested, but to keep thoughts calm and drama quiet. Phew!
I am a photographer, writer, and crafter in the Sierra foothills. I am the bestselling author of the Forest Fairy Crafts books. I am a recent breast cancer survivor and I manage hereditary neuropathy (Charcot Marie Tooth or CMT). I live with my two teens, a black cat, two kittens, a bunny, and a furry little dog named Chewbacca. I enjoy adventures, creativity, and magic.
