Thanks for sharing this, Kelsey! Though I haven’t experienced this particular journey, I have been going through something with my eye for years where I have felt unheard by doctors, and many of your emotions resonated with me so much!
Thank you for sharing this piece of yourself, it’s an honor to read your story of courage and persistence and perseverance to try to get answers. I loved the the wisdom behind the tears as snowflakes as well, I’ve never heard that and it makes me look at my own tears with renewed grace.
It takes courage to hit publish on such a vulnerable piece. The work you put into this piece shows. It’s hard and beautiful and I feel honored to read it. ❤️
Kelsey, thank you for sharing these beautiful words and for being so vulnerable. What a horrible thing you have endured. I know these words will make women feel less alone. I love that part from your therapist about tears being like snowflakes. I’m glad you are getting the answers you need.
Kelsey- literal chills and tears as I read this. “I believe you.” I’m so thankful you received that validation from a professional/doc.. but also so sorry you had to wait so long and fight so hard for it. Here with you in it, friend. 💛
Oh Kelsey, you have been through so much! I am glad you are on the other side of answers, but I am angry for you for the years of not being believed and having to bear this all yourself. Be kind to yourself in the tender and let the tears fall!
Kelsey this was so incredibly honest, vulnerable, and brave to share. Thank you for sharing and I’m so glad you now have a medical team that believes you and will help find those answers.
