Thanks for helping to rais awareness too, eventhough you don't suffer from an invisible illness yourself. <br />My story is up next on Misha's blog. I have fibromyalgia which turned my life upsidedown. <br />Gonna link to your blog too if I may in my next post. <br />Thanks again.<br />BiancaBiancahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13124458364369038191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5333207684889687005.post-8667660923507301402012-09-13T13:20:16.054-04:002012-09-13T13:20:16.054-04:00What Michelle said, for sure.

I am significantly hearing impaired and quite often get annoyed responses from people when they have to repeat themselves because I haven't heard them. Or they are unsettled because it's obvious I'm looking at their face to read their lips to understand. Because I am not "old", and my hearing impairment is not something you can see, I'm treated as if I'm being rude or I am a nuisance. <br /><br /> There are many conditions that aren't visible on the outside, and the stigma that goes with THAT makes it worse. Thank you for bringing to light a very real problem for many of us. <br /><br />Karen thisoldhouse2.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03302171590212119499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5333207684889687005.post-43894928689202636642012-09-13T12:33:21.928-04:002012-09-13T12:33:21.928-04:00Thank you for this, sister-friend.

My brother has an ABI (acquired brain injury) due to an accident in 2010. He looks fine and walks just like you and me, but his brain doesn't work as fast as it once did. I watch people get frustrated with him as he searches for words not knowing what his daily challenges are or the courage that it takes for him to get up the next day and do it all over again. I'm new to the blogging world so this is a great way for me to start.

I love the blogging world it truly makes dealing with things like this not feel so isolating and you know there is a hug just one click away if you really need it.<br />Great post and I am off to check out the site of others.
