But now that love was in her life, maybe she could start living the life she thought was stolen from her.

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!

This will be a series of stories acting as a diary to talk about my life with chronic pain.

In a world full of monsters, what can one girl do to survive? Try and live through it all? Or escape into what seems like a paradise away from it all? This is her story; short, sweet, and simple.

At the time that I wrote this poem I cared a lot about this poem, however I don't even really remember why I wrote this poem now. I guess that's the beauty of life, you grow out of some problems and heartache and grow into new one's -Jada King

Sometimes it feels like I'm black and white, and everyone else is in color. Other times it feels like I'm in color and everyone else is in black and white, and everyone is watching my every move, judging me, and trying to decide if I'm just asking for attention. The truth is, I would do just about anything that I could to get that attention to go away. I have Ehlers Danlos Syndrome, and being the only kid in my class with chronic pain is not easy. I have to fight to do everything that most people can do easily and no one realizes it. Instead, when I can't do something, people assume I'm exaggerating and I could do it if I just tried. So I want to share my story for anybody who is going through what I am.
