There are all sorts of mystery illnesses and chronic conditions. Chronic conditions are at an all-time high. You would be surprised how many people you know are dealing with something. Give them a little grace and try to support them. If you haven’t had it, you don’t understand, but try to listen, try to be there.” –Erik Harris
