    @kay Wow.  Thank you so much for sharing this article with us.  As I read, I kept nodding and saying “yes” in my heart because I know what it’s like.  I’ve been going through so many of the same things that you have, similar at least: injury/illness, long term inability to do things I want to, seeing too many doctors too many times a month… I just want to let you know that we’re here for you and praying for you as you go through this!  God’s got this!

    As for the article itself, I would agree with Christianna that some of your sentences were a bit confusing because you packed a bit much in them.  (who am I to say this?  I struggle with this all the time!) 😉 One thing a very good English critiquer told me is to try reading through your article sentence by sentence and streamlining each one.  That’s a bit confusing. 😛 What I mean by “streamlining” is taking every sentence individually and taking out all embellishing words and descriptions so that, grammatically, you know what the point of each one is.  Then, afterwards, you can go back and see what fits and what doesn’t.  Just a suggestion.

    Some people find this more helpful than  others.  I personally liked it and try to use it, but please take this with a grain a salt.  Thanks for letting us do this! 🙂
