Accent theme by Handsome Code

I'm a college student with Mixed Connective Tissue Disease, an autoimmune condition that's pretty much Lupus without the "House" jokes. This blog deals with the day-to-day frustrations of this chronic illness.

Disclaimers:
1) This is a touchy and sometimes tragic subject, but for me laughter is good therapy. If it isn't for you, just ignore me, I won't mind (My posts are tagged "theissueswithautoimmune" for ease of blacklisting).
2) I swear a lot. Be warned.
3) Autoimmune conditions affect everyone in different ways--this is the stuff I experience. If you have an observation about autoimmune life you want me to address, feel free to drop me a line!
