My sweet Kayla. The first picture is someone living with chronic pain but enjoying life as best as she can. The second one is a day later, suffering from the same chronic pain, after being forced to leave a family vacation early. Invisible diseases such as #endometriosis are challenging for others to understand. Living with my sister I see her daily struggle, many times to get out of bed or walk. She even recently bought a cane (shout out to @selmablair, the Queen of canes). I’m so proud of how strong she has been her entire life, but especially the last six months. Undeniably the strongest person I know and I want to show her off (because let’s face it - she’s gorgeous ) as well as bring awareness (because 1 in 10 women suffer from endo and countless others from invisible diseases). Reach out to those in your life, not all those who struggle show it. Also check out her account to see her journey @endo_adeno_warrior #endowarrior #endosupport #chronicpain #invisiblepain #invisibledisease #adenomyosis #mentalhealthawareness #endometriosisawareness #cheetahsistas
Because nobody says it better than Rachel

(Oh, and BTW, Friends is an amazing distraction from the pain )

Stop and think about it: school nurses are usually the first to know when teenage girls have endometriosis symptoms. To properly educate them would make an enormous impact in decreasing the delay in diagnosis. There is an organization called @endowhat who is running a school nurse initiative. You can make a donation and specify the school you’d like to receive a kit and it will be sent out. Should you not wish to donate, but would be able to connect me with someone at the school who would be interested please let me know!
THE TOOLKIT INCLUDES A Special Edition DVD of Endo What?
An engaging, 8-page Educational Toolkit targeted to health care professionals,
A colorful, glossy 11” x 17” Poster to hang in each school infirmary & provide an instant resource for students,
A downloadable Discussion Guide to promote open dialogue & communication between nurses, teachers, administrators and students,
A downloadable sample Lesson Plan for health teachers to teach a class about endometriosis.
...
We need to make CHANGE and this is one way we can! .

@cantgoout_imsick talented on point work! this is so true. I use to get anxious about going to the doctors alone because of how many times I was degraded or treated as though I was a hypochondriac times have changed and I’ve grown as a person and now I go in there and don’t leave until I’m happy with the outcome also helps when you find an understanding empathetic doctor happy Friday! #endosisters #endocommunity #adenomyosis #endowarriors #chronicpainwarrior #chronicillness #endometriosis #adenomyosis #endometriosisawareness #adenomyosisawareness #1in10
