Esophagal

This is a story about my illness and my healing. I talk about living in a psych ward. I talk about having one of the rarest illnesses in the world. I talk about being afraid to speak because I am afraid of judgment. 

There's a crack in everything, that's how the light gets in. That crack is also how the light gets out. When I let suffering silence me, cut me off from people and the world, that is where the darkness comes. Pain can crush us, or it can give us a voice, connecting and healing us in ways we never imagined. Pain is something we all share. It is my greatest teacher. I hope that hearing about mine will help you understand yours.
