Tiffany Mohar set out to create a book of poetry and stories that brings awareness surrounding life with chronic illness. Hoping that those who suffer from chronic illness will realize they are not alone and feel a sense of validation. It also acts as a tool to educate those around us what life with chronic illness is like. While Tiffany's particular experiences stem from Lupus, this acts as an umbrella cascading over many chronic illnesses. The book is divided into categories such as: Flares, Isolation, Diagnosis, Fatigue, The Mind, and Domino effects.
