Ever since I was little I have been raised in and out of hospital's dealing with all sorts of health issues and I know it can be very scary never knowing what is going to happen. I wanted to write a short little book on doctor appointments, surgeries, dealing with a diagnosis, etc. The reason I am writing this is because it may ease some minds or even help in some small way, if you ever have any personal questions you can message me on here. Have a lovely day and good luck to whatever trial is coming your way!
