The Journey Begins
One Answer, One Million Questions
On July 15, 2024, just before I turned twenty-five, I received a diagnosis my mother and I had been searching for since I was a small child. Twenty years in the making, I never thought it would be a simple answer, but I never imagined my relief would so quickly be replaced by turmoil. This is my story. It's not for everyone, but it's the one I have.

Into the Life of Kay
Turns out I am just a small-town girl living in a lonely world. My train brought me to a sketchy apartment in Rochester Minnesota.
Although I think I stopped believing a long time ago. Believing that I might get better. Believing that I might find even a fraction of relief from my physical and emotional chronic pain. I certainly never believed that in one fell swoop, someone could bundle pretty much all of the seemingly random health issues I've dealt with over the last twenty years into one single diagnosis. Fibromyalgia.
Part of me still isn't sure if I should believe it.
