Shining Your Light Through Chronic Illness

Send us Fan MailWhile living with a chronic illness, especially a difficult one like amyloidosis, patients may experience periods of emotional darkness, where the proverbial glass is half empty. Powerful feelings, such as despair and depression, can overtake any positives of the situation. For many patients, moving from darkness into the light can offer hope, joy, and happiness from life in a new way. In today’s episode, Mackenzie and Gesna will discuss their own journeys through darkness and into light, and the power of shining that light in their own individual way. For an overview of amyloidosis, please see episode 2 (for clinicians) or episode 3 (for patients).
